Wreathe with light the azure main—

There, where all we dream of brightness,

Joy or peace, to make us blest,

May the wrapt soul on wings of lightness

Find rest, ah, yes: eternal rest.

Rev. E. Case.

RESURRECTION—RISING.

Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen: he is not here:—Mark, xvi. 6.

The hour is coming, in the which all that are in the grave shall hear His voice, and shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.—John, v. 28, 29.
