the scenes of that ancient- wur come before
me. The Twelfth century was closing and
Salndiu at the bowl of eighty thousand
mounted troops was crying, “HO! for
Jerusalem!" "flu! for all Palestine!” and
before them everything went down, but
not without unparalleled resistance. In
one place one hundred and thIrty Chris-
tnlus'wero surrounded by many thousands
of furious Mobxuumcdsus. For one whole
day the on hundred and thirty held out
against these thousands. Tenn” ’s "six

were aligned by these one hundred and
thirty fighting for the holy cross. They
took hold of tho lunccs which had pierced
them with death wounds, and pullingthem
out of their own breasts and sides hurled
them back again at tho enemy.
On went the fight. until all but am
Christian bad fullt-n and be, mounted on
the last horse, wielded his battle ux right
and left till his norm;- fell under the plunge
of the juvelluu, and the rider, making the
sign of the cross toward tho sky, gave up
his life on the point of u weight-slurs.
But soon after the last battle came. Hia-
tory portrays it, poetry chants it, painting
colors it, and all ages admire that last
struggle to keep in procession the wooden
cross on which Jesus was sold to have ex-
pired. It was a buttlo‘ In which mingled
the fury of devils and the grandeur of
angels. Thousands of dead Christians on
this side. Thousands of dead Mohammed-
aus on the other side. The bottle was hot—
hcst close around the wooden cross upheld
by the bishopof Ptolemais, himself wound-
ed and dying. And when the bishop of
Ptolcmnis dropped dead, the bishop of
Lyddn seized the cross and again lifted it,
carrying it onward into a wilder nut]
fierccr fight, and sword against juveliu,
and battle n.\' upon boluwtmnd piercing
spear against splinterlug shield. Horses
and men tumbled into heterogeneous death.
Now the wooden cross on which the armies
of Christians bud kept their eye begins to
waver, begino to descend. 1t fails! and the
wailing of the Christian host at its disap-
pearance drowns the buzz» of the vic~
torious Mosh-mu.
"rut: anurn or Tux-3 moss.
But. that standard of the cross only
seemed tofull. It rides the sky today in
triumph. Five hundred million souls, the
mightiest army of the ages, are following
it and where tbut goes they will go, across
the earth and up the mighty steeps of the
heavens. In the Twelfth century it seemed
to go down, but in the Nineteenth century
_ it is the mightiest symbol of glory and tri-
umpb,nud means more than any other
standard, whether inscribed with eagle, or
lion, or bear. or star, or crescent. That
which Suladln trampled on the plain of
Esdraebm 1 lift today for your marshal-
iug. The cross! The cross! The foot of it
planted in tho earth it saves, the top of it
pointing to the heavens to which it will
take you, und the outspmnd beam of it
like outstretched onus of invitation to all
nations. Klil‘t‘l at its foot. Lift your eye
to its victim. char owrnnl allegiance to
its power. And its that mighty symbol of
pain and triumph is kept before us,we
will realize how insignificant are the little
crowns we are allied to bear, and will more
cheerfully carry them.
