THE EVENING STAR.
But now that knowledge great and high
Is kindled in man's soul,
We know thee but the glorious part
Of a more glorious whole.
Oh, mysteries of night! that fill
The mind with awe and love!
How visibly the power of God
Is manifest above!
Oh! might and majesty that reign
Upon the midnight sky!—
Creed of my hope! I feel thy truth
Whene'er I gaze on high.
