OTHERS, NOT HIMSELF.

By Mabel Earle

[Mabel Earle, in S. S. Times.]
WHEN that supremest hour of love and loss Swept up the skies and blotted out the sun, When earth's Creator hung upon the cross, What time His stripes our balm of healing won, Tho the far heavens were black, and hills and sea Shook in the horror of His agony, Somewhere on earth that self-same hour He saw Life's sweetness, in pure hearts of love flung wide; Life's crown, where brave hearts clung to love's high law Unfaltering—and He blessed them as He died.
