All day he tolls with zeal severe
on something learnodly polemic,
From Harvard ho returned last jear,
With bounteous honors academic.
Ills parents namo him but Id praise,
Ills little sisters quite adoro him,
And all tho loving household lays,
Allegiance willingly before him.
What forms his labor, week by week
They could not understand-ou. never!
'tis something eminently Greek.
TIs something Intricately clover.
Ilct still his task, uonnlshed yet.
He chapes with Industry unflagging,
And writes Ids treatise that shall set
Tho heads ot noted pundits wagging.
Ls it ot Honor's doubtful llnosj
or yet somo question, subtly finer,
Of whether certain famous'wincs
Wero first obtained from Asia Minor 7
Is It ot dialects Impure 7
Is It sotnollong-tourth rule of grammar
Is It old Sanscrit roots obsouro
Is tt that wearisome dljamma
Hut whether this or whether that,
Through fragrant fields, when work Is ended,
Whllo darkly wheels tho zigzag bat.
And all tho west Is wcrraly splendid.
Ho steals to meet,ln leaving wise,
with eager steps that do not tarry,
A rosy girl, whose shining eyes
Urow tender as tho calls him "Harry."
What altered thoughts can she awake.
This pearl ot sweetheart, best and fairest I
And what a contrast does sho make
To "Comments on tho Second Aorlst 1"
So strongly round htm can she throw
Her dazzling siwlls of sweet retention,
'TIs doubtrul now it he could go
Correctly through his Flrt Declension,
For whllo near mossy meadow bars,
With spirit thrilled by sacred pleasures,

cross.
In the year seventeen of tbo Emperor,
Tiberius Ciunr, and the 2Uth day of JIarcb,
n tho city of Holy Jerusalem, Anna and
Ca.-pin being priests, sacrifiscators of the
people of God Pontius Pilate, Governor of
Lower Galilee, sitting in tho Presidential
chair of the Factory, condemns Jesus of
Nazareth to dio on the cross between two
thieves the great and notorious voice of
the people saying :
1. Jesus is a seducer,
2. He is a seditious.
3. He is the enemy of the law.
4. He calls himself, fasely, the Son of
God.
5. He calls bimelf, falsely, the King of
srael.
G. Ho entered into the temple, followed
by a multitude, bearing palm branchc In
their bands.
Order the first centurian Quillius Cornel-
us, to lead him to tho place of execution.
l'orbld any person, whomsoever, rich or
poor, to ihterfere with "the death of Jetus
Christ.
Tho witnesses signing the condemnation
f Jesu aro :
1. Daniel Robani, a Pharisee.
2. Joaua Robani,
3. Raphael Robani.
i, Capen, a citizen.
Jesus shall go out of tho city of Jerusa-
em through the gate of Struenea.'
