u BY grief your Iethargic slumbcrs
= In faith arise, and, rushing to the Foant-
s1aA Fount Of healing and Of cure--bathe, k \

Fountain pure! 0 never failing source


Oftrue delight-let thy lucent springs be,
ID Upon the mountain top and upon the plains,
Never exhausted---let thy plastic current
To esrth's remosest bounds roll on, till
- All are cleansed Of the foul leprosy,
IntsnPsrancs Roll ON, then, and, like deluge
Nature cover with Thy waters. J. L.
