A TRUE REFORMER.

By J. P. Trowbridge

THE man who knows his cause is just, Is armed with forces strong as steel; No fear disturbs his perfect trust, Or cools the ardor of his zeal.
His faith is fixed in living laws, That move the centuries along, And plant the triumph of a cause Upon the right and not the strong.
He may be jeered and mocked of men, And all his words may seem to wait, The truth be crucified again Between the forms of lust and hate.
But in his eye no tear appears; He leans on One to whom alway A day is as a thousand years, A thousand years are as a day. —I. P. Trowbridge.
