30 WEDNESDAY. Tuesduyy.

And GOD said, Let the waters be gathered together tnto \ one place, and let the dry land appear ¢ and itwas So.» And the evening and the morning were the third day. 26 HOU spakst the word, and into one The floods together flowed; The dry land, freed from watery veil, Its verdant pastures showed. O Faruer, Who this earth assigned Our place of toil to be, Bind all within its one wide bound In one true charity.

A brotherhood of exiles here We seek a Home above,

Where Thou wilt gather in Thine Owh Who live in holy love.

Unloving souls, with deeds of ill And words of angry strife,

Shall never, Lorp, Thy glory see, Nor win the heavenly life.

Lo, earth itself from day to day Their burthen scarce sustains, And yearns, in travail, to be free From dark corruptions chains.

Yea, we too groan within ourselves, And that adoption wait

For which the Hory Spirits seal Did us predestinate.

Eternal glory be ascribed To Gop, the One in THREE,

By Whom is pourd into our hearts The grace of charity. Amen,

Wednesday. « And GOD said, Let there be lights in the firmament of heaven: and tt was 50...And the evening and the

morning were the four th day. 27 N EW wonders of Thy mighty Hand, Lorp, we to-day admire, Writ on the firmament above In glittering orbs of fire.
