GOOD FRIDAY.

Oh! Heart of Three-in-the evening, You nestled the thorn-crowned head; He leaned on you in His sorrow, And rested on you when dead.
Ah! Holy Three-in-the evening He gave you His richest dower; He met you afar on Calvary, And made you "His own last hour."

Page 166

O Brow of Three-in-the evening, Thou wearest a crimson crown; Thou art Priest of the hours forever, And thy voice, as thou goest down
The cycles of time, still murmurs The story of love each day: "I held in death the Eternal, In the long and the far-away."
O Heart of Three-in-the evening, Mine beats with thine to-day; Thou tellest the olden story, I kneel — and I weep and pray.
BOULOGNE, SUR MER.
