A Lazarus, up-rising from the grave,

Bursting the cerements of the straitened shroud;

To all true men Columbus calls aloud.

He scans the past, with all its priestly lore,

But, Janus-like, beholds the future’s shore.

What glorious scenes, what teeming wonders crowd!

What though the church behold him with a frown!

What though the crosier point toward the rack,

When heresy is near, as to the track

Of precious gold the magic hazel leans?
