ET IN ARCADIA FUISTI 103 



Have you lost your faith in miracles? Then rise with 

 the sun to-morrow, when garden and orchard and meadow 

 are jeweled with dew. Stand before the humble morning- 

 glory that you have despised, and while you look and 

 would count the sparkle of crystal drops upon the emer- 

 ald leaves, a host of flowers unfurl at some divine com- 

 mand, chalices of pearl and blue and rose are lifted in 

 adoration before the shrine of the rising sun, bringing 

 another day to a thoughtless world waking under the. 

 azure skies and yet forgetful of the heavenly presence.
