“A DREAMER AND A DOER.”
“Behold, a dreamer coineth!” Ves, a Seer ! One v\ ho in Vision rapt foresaw this wide, God-smitten earth, borne on resistless tide Of spirit forces to the golden year; A world transfigured to a luminous sphere, Bv sun-bright deeds and natures glorified; A home-like world, so fair it may abide His coming the heart-searcher’s — without fear. A dreamer? Yes; but ah! a doer, too, — Jeanne IVArc of later time and fairer fame. In moral realms she conquered; to the Blue Her soul unfettered rose, ’mid loud acclaim: “To lead a mighty host to see and do,” Sung angel choirs, “Behold, this dreamer came!" Elba Gilbert Ives.
