The Phoenix . lone hast thou discoursed to us of law, But still a finer spirit in your words Spoke to our hearts, and moved us Godward. Love is the breath of the eternal years That turns to melody a mortals speech. And so you speak to us and move our hearts, Because, you love us—endless gain, For love, like music, throbs responsively. Great teacher, take our love! We can but love .. • The sweet simplicity that makes, you great; The .dear unconsciousness of princely mind; The childlike bearing of a royal heart. Dear teacher, keep our love! The love of those Whom thou hast, led by quiet streams

The love of those Whom thou hast, led by quiet streams until Weve learned more fully what it means to live. Keep through the years and time beyond the years; And happily in spite of wanderings The truth hast taught us here to lore Shall draw thy children ac the close of day Around thy feet, as we to-night have sat To hear thee, bless us as the Patriarch.: Yea and we shall be blessed, and come through faith To Jaeside the Larger Lave. 79.
