Let me walk backward in recollection along some years Of President Garfield‘s life. ' ' ‘ Tun rnaonnn Pnnsrnnur. The lake shore in Ohio at that part cast of Cleveland city called the Western Reserve (of Connecticut) is Of distinctive scenery, even in the West. Nearly fiat,except where the little rivers have denuded the ribs of gravel or limestone and made terraces of al- most gardeners’ symmetry, the land bears strong timber, is dotted with little towns of miniature white cottages and thin white church spires, and of such towns Mentor, Painesville and Ashtabula are alike, strung along the facile Lake Shore Railroad. In the year 1865 I got off at Ashtabula station in early winter and took the hack for the town of that Indian name. A small white hotcl stood in the middle ,of it. The sidewalks were mainly of forest pine, the broad, fiat street in snow looked like a table cloth, the low houses like empty plates along it, and the Puritan householder seemed spreading his arms in every big elm tree's curving,as if to say, “Stranger, we say a blessing before we eat, here I" No smell of ale was in the hotel; the landlady’s family did the serving and showed me to a rather lean room, in which a lean wood stove and a box of wood seemed to be about ti. only furniture. The cold wood was made. to roar in furious heat immediately. Being warm, I took a meal in which bread and stewed dried apples were conspicuous. After that the Christian Association called to say I was expected, small and unprepossessing as I was, and that the lecture course had been started by “our Congressman, Garfield.” - I had never heard the name before ; what was this Congressman's subject? Well, it was on finances—figures about What we owed! Could he make such a subject as that popular? Well, he did, rather right down popular! . That was the first idea I had of “our Con— gressman Garfield,” then .closing his first term at Washington, or entering upon his second. , ’ The surrounding towns spoke of the same lecture approvingly. At that time the sub- ject of our national debt and taxes seemed to more physical observers either dull and involved or indefinite as to importance ; but Garfield, only thirty-five years old and not worth $3,000 probably, had already mounted the enemy’s works before the enemy had manned them. and began to foresee their argument, to revive the pro-slavery party through the burdens of the people, and dis- courage the idea that the debt was an honest one or could ever be.paid off. He did not open that debate in Congress, to draw the support of the public creditor and the finan- cier to himself, but among his people _of the Ashtabula District, whose children he .had been teaching, he forced reflection and laid the foundation for convictions on a subject presenting no charms to the popular con- science, viz., paying an incalculable debt for which nobody could accuse himself person- ally. , . Garfield was not too soon; the next year came out the Pendleton patent, to pay the interest on the debt in unredeemable promis- sory notes. On that issue Pendleton ran for the Presidential nomination two years later._ Perhaps the first district in the West to be instructed on the cOnnection between morals and finance was General Garfield’s. The West had peculiar weaknesses concerning this debt,becausc c bonds were held by the general creditor in the East, and it seemed reasonable to the farmer that money good enough for his potatoes was good enough for that citizen-creditor. As a school—master in politics, as in elementary things, the Presi- dent is to take his .place. He schooled the men of bis.district like the children, and when, ten years afterward,weak Republicans exclaimed : “Let us not take up the curren- cy question, because the people are crazy for inflation," voices went up from the Western Reserve : “Tell us about hard money,” and Governor Allen went down before the smooth coin sent from the sling of young David,General Hayes. Garfield had prepar- ed the ground. He was not only the first schoolmaster that ever reached the Presiden- cy—a formidable list Of statesmen were of that calling, like General Cass, Thaddeus Shevens, Mr. Blaine,~Mr. Chase, Mr. Trum- bull, George Bancroft, S. S. Prentiss, Hor- ace Maynard, and Generals Sherman and ' Schofield-but he was the schoolmaster in the presence of death only a week ago. He was on his way to a' school commencement when wounded, his wife was his dear pupil at Hiram, and he said to the telegraph mes- senger as he lay with cold feet, and his flesh ploughed with lead, “My boy, say sympathy with me, not sympathy fri‘mel Always stick to your grammar.” The episode of his life on the canal towpath was short and scarcely relevant. Poor boys will do days work any- where for adventure, if not for money. It is as an instructor in the warm, glowing sense of one inspired to teach, loving the boys and girls, enraptured with his own studies and apostolic to communicate them. That Garfield rises from the bare village ly- ceum and fugitive occupation in little school houses to the rank of Orator, Senator and President. His very title is more intelligible now in that it is held by the head of every college. xnowuve run scuoomrasmn. In the following spring I encOuntered in the clerk of Congress’s private Office at the American Capitol the lecturer on finance. A large man, with something of the shape of Western horses, rather corn fed, with the tassels of the arid corn in his heard, his body filled out everywhere yet not fat.and the military exercise denoted in the strong grooves of his thighs, his heavily booted feet, his massive chest, firm neck, aabreur‘s forehead. He wore a dark gray walking suit, was a little shy, or apprehensive, or pre- occupied, and yet a little inquisitive. He had some work elsewhere to do perhaps at that minute. At thirty~six a schoolmaster but recently sent to Congress has not settled hlI his character. The world is too clever for him, and successive acquaintances of some distinction daze him, as schoolboys used to run behind wood piles at the sight of that prodigious thing, a member of Congress. Relatively unimportant as I was, I had New York connections with institutions not of hrs party, and all his press. acquaintances were, then Western. The editor of the TRIBUNE , was a Cincinnati writer at that time. Though a, . . luxury out of life. only fifteen years ago it was in the under. graduate time of more than half our present public characters. Cornelius Vanderbilt w. still a ship captain. No consolidated railroad stretched from the East In the West. Pro- vincialism was the National life. and the great war for the Union was onlyhalf under- stood iu its results. Garfield was one of the several volunteer soldie. who had pressed into Congress, previously famed only in a State, Legislature. He never finished ,his character till'abOut 1874, at the age of forty- four, when suffering and abuse, misappre- hension and deadly enmity born of politics and rivalry, turned him from his studies to face at once the wolf and the byena, poverty and persecution. No one is mature till that crisis arises in his life,and calls aloud: “Thou boy! thou little thing Of exploit,lic the dust, thy mother, and bleed without a friend 1" By nevcrlaking up the burdens Of poverty with- out personal debt, he was getting too much No man is truly inde- pendent but he who, owning nothing, has V magnificent health and general reputation. He is indeed a roaming prince without bag- gage! Since 1875, a little span of six years, Gar- field has been no more a marvelling, exuber- ant student wrangling over books on the way to school. A fcciing of reproof that he had been too much exempt from cares intoncd him like a hell, that is said never to get its settled ring till it has tolled for a funeral. ' BEEN BEHIND THE SNOW. I have anticipated my uneventful narrative, but the newfound love Of Garfield among the million is a result of this recent birth of manhood in him, which politicians had not noticed, dealing with him from year to year. Outside of his district and State-the inchoate Congressman is not remembered. The graver man was recognized by his country while the gossips at the capital were talking about a former soft-shelled mollus— kous colleague with a great big brain who lacked “horse sense.” Nothing in the horse world is though; to be so superflous as soul. A politician without boots, who will walk docile to his stall and kick not back .like horses in general, is a new species to Ameri- can politicians. Made eminent in the fiery furnace. the people saw at length prophetic qualities in this ever improving congressman, and in Ohio compelled his election by the Legislature which had trifled with his merits too long, and in the vast National Conven- tion his daily entering cliled forth applaus'c like artillery, and in the dead-lock of factions there was the whisper Of a neglected name; the banners began to sway, and the school- master Of the people became the statesman of the continent. My next remembrance of him was about 1868, pending the trial of President Johnson. NO man in Congress stood more delicately toward the impeachment scheme than Gar- field. The beneficiary of it would be‘Sena- tor Ben Wade, who lived in Garfield’s dis- trict. Garfield allowed the impeachment resolution to pass, only two Republicans out Of 126 voting nay, but his doubt was large. He had steadily opposed all earlier attempts to impeach. noanmno AROUND. He was Of an inquiring mind, and after David A. Wells in 1869 made an official re- port on the oddities of the revenue system, the coal and iron fields in his district were agitated against him. “My constituents in the Mahoning Valley are‘ just standing on their heads,” he said to me one day. They learned in time that their' Congressman, con- servative through and through, was not going to limit his course Of reading. The district. had sent him for eight terms to Congress,and he got the seat of Wade in the Senate after Thurman had filled it two terms. General Garfield was an admirer Of Secretary Chase and of Governor Corwin, and of Francis Leiber’s political writings. Those three seemed to be his nearest contemporary mod- els. He once read to me a passage from Leibcr showing how brutality and the mob often usurped the name and rights of public opinion. Corwin’s social talents and warmth of heart he loved, and was present, I think, when Gorwin was struck with apolexy at the table. He looked on Chase as the greater schoolmaster, the portait of Jove, till it be- came too clear that the Chief—Justice’s feet were sticking to marshy places of self-seek- ing. , ‘ In those days Garfield was living in rented houses or in boarding houses in Washington. He was desirous Of getting some law practice to meet his expenses. The want. of money troubled him a little, but never the low of it. His very healthy, handsome children I have seen racing and tumbling around his boarding house steps in G street, near the Foundry church. Again be rented a large brick house, twenty feet above the street on Capitol Hill, which was lonesome, bleak and perhaps expensive. He said to me one day later: “——— is trying to ruin me: He is printing that I am a rich man, and own a house here, making it appear that it is the fruit of my influence in Congress. I had $5,000 which] made at the law, and a friend of mine, taking that, bought me a lot and built me a house, holding himself amortgage upon it, so that my children should not run wild around Washington boarding houses.” I published the fact, and no more was heard of the imputation. . General Garfield’s love Of human nature, charity with it, excuses for it, and whole- some want. of any snobbery or afiectation, was a steady cause Of men depreciating him. They found none of the glacier’s coldness and strength, no mystery, nor rcci'wg Of his own deeds, quoting his own speeches,~or telling how much big men thought .of him. The physical acts of the man, in which hewas eminent, I never heard him refer to, nor mention any rebel dignitary with express; cd or reserved dislike. His taste for fine things was inert or not yet awakened. He appreciated the moral meaning of a pic- ture, but his own furniture was a comment- ary on the decorative mania. Sensuous col- ors, patterns or comforts he took no more note of than some noble dog would do,whose plain house was good enough with clean straw and a healthy litter of young. Books and photographs of memorable places, made his indoor life; he could work like a steer. and once he did say, only two years ago: “This immense capacity I seem to have for hard work makes them throw all the hardest work from Congress on me,and I guess,after all, I do like to do it. But of late it has been telling on me,—the nervous strain, the obvious. wrong I am doing to myself. So I have gone back to the occupation of my boy- hood, bodily work upon my little farm, and every summer I take the plough-boy’s rest and sleep, going to bed by 0 o’cloc ." runs. . Three great loves he had—love of mankind, love Of wisdom, and love of work. Any- body could interest him, he was so demo- cratic yet so enthusiastic. A dog, a boy, a tool, a game, a puzzle, a task; they all pro- voked every fresh faculty. He was not without gallantry, but it was big and moth- erly. Sympathy produced his sympathy. Not one ounce did he ever add to himself by being feared. Revenge was as foreign to his nature as simulation. Analysis was not his habit; he acquired happiness bg universally appreciating others. The nearer heme you followed him the more you found him prized. Of course this‘sort of big apple in never. a ted great. His arm followed his heart soon, and he threw it around anybody he liked almost unconsciously. He soon forgot mandaland it could prejudice nobody Congress was under estimated, and Twin; no_ exception to the rest; 1.33‘71‘13.‘ ever gfoy.‘ ius. vat 't seemed never. great. because he .. long in his eyes. He failed to be an effective extorter of places and patronage for friends. Grant appointed female postmasters in his district or unknown folks of some old family clews, and it made Garfield look more ludi- crous than mad as he said: "They are just standing on their heads up in my district!” Once he burst out, at the age of forty-nine: “I suppose I am foolish, but I can't bear to go around with enmities to anybody. There .3 one man who treated inc so outrageous- ly that I flight my self-respect would com- pel me never to speak to him again. Accord- ingly, when I was passing down —— street one day, and he turned the corner I was ap- proaching and came up the same sidewalk I raised my head and felt my nostrils swell, and made ready to go past him, till just as I came Opposite to him, something -took hold of me, and I crossed over and exclaimed, ‘———, you old scoundrel, how are you 2‘ ",It may be singular but, if I had seen him go up and break a giant’s back like Sampson,be could not now be so vivid to me as when he told that incident. It is in my mind the standard portrait of him. 'He was nearly‘a credulous man. Once he told me that , Joe Smith,thc Mormon,whose first temple stands in Garfield’s district, cured a persou by his powerful magnetism, saying: "I command you to rise up and walk 1" Faith and interest in fellow things were natural in him. annono'rn urn. Major Bundy, who wrote one of the cam- paign lives of him, told me this fresh story yesterday: ‘ “While I was staying at Mentor, just one year ago, Garfield drove out on Fourth of July afternoon, taking along his wife and Mrs.~ Rockwell. The latter had been run away With a short time previous, and made very nervous. Garfield had a large country carriage, built strong. He drove a pair of young horses only broken a few weeks be- fore, nervous and all but dangerous. I had a good opportunity to see the quiet, effective influence of Mrs. Garfield over him.‘ Two common fellows, driving a buggy with a pretty good horse, evidently knowing who he was, began to annoy him. The state road was wide enough for half a dozen teams to pass, but those fellows would get directly before the carriage and come nearly to a walk, and keep us back for a mile or two, till Garfield would try to pass, and then they would speed their horse and have a race, the wild young animals Garfield drove fairly standing up in the air. This thing was re_- peated till it was perfectly clear they meant to irritate and annoy the General, probably from political malice. At length I saw him worked up. I could feel him loosing his temper, and I think he can get as mad when he does get mad at all, as any man I ever saw. He said to me, in a low tone, ‘Now I am going to take a wheel Ofi.’ At that in- stunt Mrs. Garfield leaned forward and said, ‘No, James, no, you are [not 1’ ‘Yes, I am,’ said Garfield. Games, you are not going to do it.’ In a minute he ‘cooled Off. as if under her tone, and turned his.horses the otherway." Unquestionably he knew his rising rank in the country,and that the time had nearly gone past when politicians could walk their buggies on the National road and make him track behind them. He entered the Chicago Convention no self-seeker, yet aware that in the air an insect was buzzing and searching, the golden beetle of his fate, perhaps.

Excitement in an 01110 Village. Wasurne'ron, July 10.—Prcsident Hins- dale, Hiram College, who remains in Wash- ington to be near his wounded friend, has received a letter from his wife, who gives a graahic description Of the effect produced in a quiet Ohio village by the attempt to'assas- sinate the President. A Tribune correspond- ent has been permitted to make some extracts from this letter, which is dated Hiram, Ohio, July 4 and 5.: Mrs. Hinsdale writes: “Hiram has passed through some eventful scenes since you left. The reports that came during the afternoon were full of despair. Mrs. Comstock, of Warren, sent a dispatch dated half-past one, which said: ‘Internal hemorrhage has set in and the worst results are feared.’ The back brought the 'papers, but there were no dispatch later than half-past eleven. Those were favorable. In the evening Allie Turner drove down again. He came at 9 o'clock with this message, ‘The President passed away at 10 minutes past 7.’ I asked whether it was Ofiieial. He could not tell, but said men were crying and tearing their hair, women were wailing in the streets and the church bells were tolling in Garretsville. No such dark cloud ever hung over Hiram Hill since it was inhabited by white men. Some of the neighbors came running here. They got a flag, draped it with hunting and hoist. edit half mast over the tabernacle; others tolled the college bell. They festOoned the church with mourning. For myself I could not shed a tear, or hardly say a word. I told them I could takeno part or interest in the draping, but I told the children to get the flag. It seemed to me the sun had been blown out. Mrs. Patterson said to me: ‘Will Mrs. Garfield preserve her won- derful presence of- mind now?’ I replied : ‘She will in the presence of others, but the shock will probably kill her.’ “I passed the night with my mind filled history that revealed the Creator's dealings with the human race. I thought, ‘13 this Nation so corrupt that it deserves this ?’ and then it came to me that for ten righteous persons He was willing to save Sodom. I could think of no comparison unless it was the Disciples at the crucifixion. In the morning Billie drovs down again, and when we saw him coming at a rapid pace we thought, ‘He is going to tell us Mrs. Garfield is dead.’ We heard his voice before he got inside the gate, ‘Garfield is alien and better.’ I cried for the first time. Allie ran with the janitor to the college building and rang the bell. All the neighbors, near . and far, came on the run; some had pails, because they supposed there was fire. Sunday all day we were very hopeful, but Monday morning Mr. Dietz came from Warren and said the President was evidently worse, for the flying rumors were full of de- spair. Soon the paper came and we learned that some fever had set in and at least the case was very critical. - In the afternoon Mr. Smith sent your dispatch. The evening mail brought the second one, that gave me great cheer. This morning papers say the temp- erature ran up again in the nigh,,and I saw in your letter dispatch to The Herald this : 'You may hope, but must not hope too much.’ I read also the diagnosis of the New York doctor and I conclude that the‘case is critical. You will see that I began this yes- terday ,and am finishing today, July 4." Allie heard that the Official ‘bulletin this morning was very favorable. For all this we thank God and take courage. Should the President survive, this attempt upon his life will do much to deepen the conviction many people entertain that he was raised up by God to perform a special work.” - ae==s .

Only the best quality of fruit should be selected for preserving—that which is ripe but not overripe. This caution is especially necessary in preparing jelly. The gelatinous substance of the fruit grows watery with age, and in spite of all efforts jelly made from too‘ ripe fruit will not “form.” Currant jelly is usuallythe first preserving done. Strawber- r-ies are often neglected, as they are an ex- tremely delicate fruit to keep through the hot weather. Currant jelly making is one of the most delicate culinary arts. It requires care, skill and attention to the smallest de- tails. Without' this the jelly mav come, but it will be dark and stringy, and fiavorless or, most humiliating of all to the housekeep- er‘s pride, it may be thin. If the jelly does not “form" in one night, there 'is little pee in working over it. The currents have been overripe. or the juice has been cooked too long. It will grow a little thicker if it is set in the sun for a day or two, covered with pieces of glass, but jelly once thin will never form rightly and no care can remedy the mistake. The Fourth of July is about the right time in this locality to pick currents for jelly, but this season a week later will not be too much to allow for the slow sum- . mer. . Speed is Of the greatest consequence in all prescrving,.as the natural flavor of the fruit is more readily saved. The Old-fashioned method of squeezing the juice from the un- heated fruit and boiling it down to a thick conserve is happily abandoned now by all intelligent housekeepers. Place the currents which may be stewed if you wish. though it is not necessary,in a stone jar and set in ‘a pot of cold water which should be placed on the fire. The stone jar should be covered tight- ly and a little higher than the rim of the pot so that no steam can get to the currents. Cook them, in this way thirty minutes after the water begins to boil. Then break the fruit with a potato hectic and strain through a flannel bag. Do not squeeze the currents too hard as the jelly will be cloudy if you do. It is better to press the juice out with a press. To every pint of juice allow a pound Of sugar. Put the juice over the fire in a porcelain- lined kettle and let it cook jently fifteen minutes after it boils. Then add the sugar; stir to dissolve it as quickly as possi- ble, and at the first boiling remove the kettle from the fire and fill the bowls or tumblers you have in readiness. These should be standing in a pan of boiling water to prevent their being cracked by the hot jelly. Op'aque bowls or jars are better to keep jelly than tumblers, as they exclude the light. A bowl makes a prettier mold for the' table. It is well to put a specimen of the jelly in a tum- bler to examine its clearness and color. Many housekeepers prepare current jelly spiced to eat with mutton and other meats. This is easily done by ridding a tablespoonful of cinnamon and one of mace, tied in a bag, to the juice when you put it on to boil. Be» fore you add the sugar take out the bag of spices and add a tablespoonful Of cloves, which may remainin the jelly as they look pretty floating in the clear crimson foam. Black current jelly is excellent,and is made in the same way as red currant. . The amateur cook may fail in her first cur- rant jelly,but she will be sure to succeed with quince or grape jellies. They are much more easily made and can scarcely- fail to be firm and fine. Grapes are made into jelly ind the same way as currents. The fruit should be only ripe, and green grapes just before they turn, are Often used. The most deli— cious grape jelly is made Of the large fox grapes common in thickets in New England. Plum jelly is made like grape, and damson or green gage plums are used. Quinces and crab-apples seem made for jelly. They cannot be preserved without their syrup running to jelly around the fruit. Select the quinccs, slice and core them, but put them all together over the fire; cook till tender, allowinga cup of water to every five pounds Of fruit. Press oht the juice, and to every pint Of juice allow a pound of sugar, and proceed as with current jelly. For crab- apple jelly, choose the best Siberian apples, cut them in half—do not peel or core, place them in a stone jar set in water in the same way as currants, but let them remain on the back part .of the range, the water slowly, boiling around them for seven or eight hours. Set them Off the stove at night and in the morning strain the cold juice through a fian- nel, boil it down twenty minutes and add sugar in the same proportion as in currents. Let it boil up and then fill the bowls. For peach jelly add three-quarters of the blanched kernels of the peach nuts. After the juice is pressed out allow a scant pound of sugar to a pound of juice. Cook the juice twenty mintutes, add the sugar, let it boil up once and put in the bowl. DO not seal up any jelly at once, but leave it uncovered till the next ‘day, then . place two thin papers dipped in brandy over it and seal it up with paper and paste—Tribune. _ # Tronchlng for Stra. wbcrrlos. Mr. E. P. Roe, a trusted authority on small fruits maintains that since watering is a troublesome and costly process and generally unsatisfactory at best, the safest method of guarding against drouth, especially in straw- berry culture, is by deep trenching and thorough loosening of the subsoil. A con- firmatory and remarkable experience in this line he thus records in the Christian Union .' “The piece of land in question was a" very dry, rocky side-hill on which plants had all ways wilted badly during the usual summer heat. It was first cleared from all surface stones, then, beginning at the foot of the hill, a deep furrow was opened with a side- thrice in the furrow. A gang of men fol- lowed takiugout all the rocks and stones and loosening the subsoil thoroughly with picks. Asecond furrow was thrown over on the first and treated in like manner, and so on- until the whole piece of ground was gone over. nge of the rocks were very large and had to be blasted, and’others required the united efforts Of several men to pry them out with crowbars, but they were all taken out. This work occupied several days and was done at considerable expense, but the result has amply justified the cost, for al- though last summer was an exceptionally dry one. I failed to soon single wilted plant- on the patch, while in many other places the foliage was completely shriveled up for lack of moisture. . In small gardsns trenching may be per- formed with a very slight expenditure of time and labor. Apply a heavy dressing of stable manure to the plot of ground selected for the strawberry bed, and commence to excavate at one end to the depth Of two feet, wheeling the soil taken out to the op- posite end. where it is intended to finish the work. Proceed to turn over the soil to the depth of two feet into the excavation already made, and continue to trench in this manner until the whole ground has been gone over, the last trench being filled up with the soil taken out of the first excavation and wheeled there for that purpose. Should the soil be heavy and inclined to bake, coal ashes mixed through it will be apt to render it lighter and more easily worked. By this careful preparation light soils willberendercd less liable to drouth in dry season; clayey soils, by being made more. porous, are also made drier in wet seasons; and in both cases the 'depth of productive soil is increase" ' .

I saw a tutor take his tube The Comet’s course to spy; I heard a scream—the gathered rays Had stewed the tutors eye; ' I saw a fort—the soldiers all Were armed with goggles green; Pop cracked the gun! whiz flew the balls! Bang went the magazine! I saw a poet dip a scroll Each moment in stub, I read upon the warping back. “The Dream Of Beelzebub ;” He could not see his verses burn, Although his brain was fried, , And ever and anon be bent To wet them as they dried. I saw the scalding pitch roll down The crackling, sweating pines, And streames of smoke, like water spouts, Burst through the rumbling mines; I asked the fireman why they made Such noise about the town ; They answered not—but all the while The breaks went up and down. I saw a roasting pullet sit ' ' “Upon a baking egg; '1 saw a cripple scorch his hand . Extinguishing his leg; , I saw nine geese upon the wing , Towards the frozen pole, ' And every mother’s gosling fell . Crisped to a crackling cool. I saw the ox- that browsed the grass ‘ Writhe in the blistering rays, ' The herbage in his shrinking jaws - ‘ ,1 ' Was all a fiery blaze; ’ ' I saw huge fishes, boiled to rags, Bob through the bubbling brine; And thoughts of supper crossed my soul ;‘ I had been rash at mine. Strange sights! strange sounds! O fearful dreamt , Its memory haunts me still; The steaming sea, the crimsOn glare, That wreathed each wooded hill; Stranger! if through thy reeling brain Such midnight visions sweep.

The Lord is God i He needeth not The poor device of man. “I walk with bare, hushed feet the ground Ye tread with boldness shod, I dare not fix with meet and bound The love and power of God. “Ye praise his justice; even such His pitying love I deem; Ye seek a king; I fain would touch The robe that hath no seam. “Ye see the curse which overbroods A world'of pain and loss; I hear Our Lord’s beatitndes And prayer upon the cross. “More than school-men teach. within Myself, alas, I know 1. Too dark ye cannot paint the sin, TOO small the merit show. “I bow my forehead in the dust. I veil mine eyes for shame, And urge, with trembling self-distrust, A prayer without a claim. “I see the wrong that round me lies, I feel the guilt within; I hear the groan and travail cries, ' The world confess its sin. “Yet in the maddening maze of things, ' .And tossed by storm and flood, To one fixed stake myspirlt clings; I know that God is good! “Not mine to look when cherubim And semphs may not see, . But nothing can be good in Him Which evil is in me.
