Then sank the iron rack apart.
The cords released their cruel clasp.
The pincers, with their teeth of fire.
Fell broken from the torturer's grasp.
And lo ! before the Youth and Saint, Barred door and wall of stone gave way ; And up from bondage and the night They passed to freedom and the day!
O dreaming monk ! thy tale is true ; — O painter ! true thy pencil's art ; In tones of hope and prophecy.
Ye whisper to my listening heart !
Unheard no burdened heart's appeal Moans up to God's inclining ...ear ; Unheeded by his tender eye.
Falls to the earth no sufferer's tear.
For still the Lord alone is Grod !
The pomp and power of tyrant man Are scattered at his lightest breath.
Like chaff before the winnower's fan.
Not always shall the slave uplift His heavy hands to Heaven in vain.
God's angel, like the g6od St. Mark, Comes shining down to break his chain !
O weary ones ! ye may not see Your helpers in their downward flight ; Nor hear tne sound of silver wings Slow beating through the hush of night 1 But not the less gray Dothan shone.
