Nihál Chand closely examined the prize. Round the ruby, in characters of surpassing fineness, were engraved the words,—_Thy sins be forgiven thee_ (Matt. ix. 2). Round the pearl, Purity, appeared the inscription,—_Holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord_ (Heb. xii. 14). And in delicate letters appeared round the diamond,—_It is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom_ (Luke xii. 32).
