You gorge on disgrace more than honour !- Drink also yourself, and discover your shame, The LORD’s right hand cup will come also to yeu,—- And bring deep disgrace on your glory,-—-· Then Lebanon’s horror will clothe, And the fear of itsbeasts will affright, For men murdered, and wrongs to the land, To the City, and all who dwelt there. 2\ @21nmriaii.¤n uf Muir.

Were You wroth against the Sea? That Your horsemen rode on it? With Your Chariots of Salvation, And Your bow exposed to the light? At Your promise made the '1`rihesmen, The rivers burst from earth! The Mountains saw and quivered, The raging Sea ran back, The Deep raised up its voice ; The Height raised up its hands, 640
