For peace?”—he said; and Williams made reply:

XXXIII.

“The Great Spirit, almighty o’er the Whole,

Wields earth at will and moulds the hearts of men;

At his command torrents may backward roll,

The hare may gambol in the panther’s den;

In Him I trust, and in His strength my soul

Is more than armies.—Let your brother then

Ask for himself, if not for thee or thine,

That on these lands the sky of peace may shine.
