plentiful, seem always to be used

and cocardes made from leather and

Psalm 1923.
This is from one of the most
curious chapters of the Bible.
The psalmist begins with a series
of curses, ferocious. ingenious, and
comprehensive.
He curses the enemy who has
spoken of him with a lying tongue.
Then he goes on to curse that en-
emy's father and mother, his wife, and
his innocent children.
Let his children be vagabonds and
beg; neither let there be
any to have pity on his fatherless
children"
The force of hatred could no far
ther go.
II is like a blind madman, striking
with his knife at every one he
touches.
Then, strangely enough. this pious
lunatic turns round, falls on his
knees, and says:
30 Jehovah, my enemies are awful
cursers, but will you please bless
me?"
No need to say. this psalm is not
Christian.
Have we ever met a man like this
Have we ever asked God for mercy
