AUGUSTA LOCALS

Christ % Risen
All the earth was clothed in sadness
For nation was in gloom.
IN their hearts there was no gladness
AS they fastened to the tomb.
See their look Of perfect wonder
AS they look within the grave;
They forget the Saviour told them
That He had the power to save,
Fear ye not. the angel answered,
For know you seek your Lord:
quickly go and tell. His disciples
Spread the glorious news abroad
He's not here, the Christ is risen,
Nothing but the grave clothes left
Hes not here. the Christ is risen,
He has triumphed over death
As they FASTENED on in gladness
Jesus met them on the way;
Be not afraid. go tell my brethren
That you met your Lord today"
He's not here. the Christ IL risen
He has left the Galilee:
When He comes in all His glory
Will crown be waiting me?

The Maidcn's Destruction.

In the end the maiden brings about
her own destruction. She goes to the
valley OF the god Yarilo Ga highly ex-
elusive Russian god and demands the
fullhllment OF a promise made by her
mother in the first scene. that If she is
in trouble and will go TO that spot and
ask. her mother win grant. She begs
for the power to love. Ii Is bestowed
Mizguir appears she glows with sudden
passion; the snow in her veins is melted
and she ascends TO the clouds in vapor,
while the chorus praises the remarkable
powers of the god Yarilo.
