Breaks the joyful Eastern dawn.
Clearer yet and stronger;
Winter from the world has gone.
Death shall be no longer!
Far away good angels drive
Night and sin and sadness;
Earth awakes in smiles, alive
With her dear Lords gladness-
Reused by Him from dreary hours
Under snow-drifts chilly
In His hand He brings the flowers
Brings the rose and lily.
Every little buried bud
Into life He raises;
Every wild-fower Of the wood
Chants the dear Lords praises.
Open, happy flowers of spring,
For the Sun has risen!
Through the sky glad voices ring.
Calling you from prison.
Little children. dear, look up!
Toward His brightness pressing.
IAft up every heart. a cup
For the dear Lords blessingl

Lord, let me watch beside Thy silent
tomb,
'Tis Easter eve. Thy holy pain is
past;
Thy cup of life is drained even to
the last,
Last bittery dregs. How still the mid

Broods on the sleeping garden; bud
and bloom
Wait for the dawn in slumber fold

And all is still, save that the SEN

A moment hence. guarding Thy pow
erless tomb.
In the tense silence of this pregnant
hour,
With quickened heart watch the
eastern way
To catch the first gray trace of
morning tide.
Lo! as l wait. with resurrection pow
A mighty angel rolls the stone
away,
And Thou! "Rabboni!" standest at
my side.

Something happened nineteen
hundred years ago in the gray
light of the first Easter morning
which transformed and trans
figured the face of the earth.
History began again. The
worlds heart beat with new and
gladder thrill. Henceforth and
forever, beneath the all-behold-
ing sun, there is nothing which
is too good to be true" 1t has
not entered into the heart OF
man to conceive a good which
is better than the reality of
things. But we are afraid OF
imagination. 1t is a vain thing.

: an. are you afraid of your own
prayers? He is God. He is the
Father-God. the Motherhood, the

spreads out the heavens as
! curtain and calls all the stars
by name, who longs for you as
the child of his heart, and loves
you with an everlasting love, so
that sin and death cannot sepa-
rate you from the might of His
affection nor quench His hope
in you. Morning light shames
our midnight fears. And the
I shame is that in the darkness
you were not sure Of the COM

The flower symbol for Easter is
enc of the most beautiful in human
imagery; but 1t is essentially human,
and therefore imperfect. 1t illustrates
but one aspect of the Easter tide
that of the resurrection, and misses
entirely the greater attribute OF the
tenet--that Of immortality.
For flowers are among the most
