Yea! and so holy was the influence Of that high dawn that came with victory,
That, far and near, in homes of men there
spread
An unknown peace.
Kings at fierce war called truce; the sick men
leaped
Laughing from beds of pain,
And the priests stood with the people in the
streets
Watching the golden splendors flood the sky,
And saying, "There hath happed some mighty
thing."
Poems
Yea! and so holy was the influence...
