" They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. And he that now goeth on his way weeping shall doubtless come again with joy, and bring his sheaves with him." This is why, beloved, we do not give up our Easter flowers to-day, but wreath them even around the garments of our mourning ; that thoughts not only of death and the grave may be ours, but thoughts beside of a blessed resurrection — that the remembrance may be ours, not alone of w^hat wicked hands and hellish hate have done, but the grateful ...remembrance of what wicked hands and hellish hate have not done, and can never do through the mercy of God, We mingle to-day as never before, the tokens of a nation's grief, with the expressions of the brightest hopes and the deepest joys, that we solemnize in our Christian year; and the glad- ness of our Easter anthem is chastened into notes of sorrow, such as we could feel to be fitting under scarce another dis- pensation of Providence. Xo private sorrow, no lesser grief, could have caused this seeming departure from the custom hallowed by so many ages and so many joyous associations.
