BISHOP.
[Shaking his head. and turning with a wink to the
English.]
No, not me!
Saxon's the language of the free:
The language of the great Evangels!
The language of the Saints and Angels!
The only speech that Joseph knew!
The speech of him and Brigham too!
Only the speech by which we've thriven
Is comprehended up in Heaven!..
Poor heathens! but we'll make'em spry,
They'll talk like Christians by and by.
