45 the sea and storm, "Peace be still" and his mandate shall be obeyed. Shall our cause be sustained? Shall our rights be honored? Shall we defend our homes, our hearthstones, our religious altars; shall we successfully repel the advancing invader and prevent his further ingress into our country? Shall we continue to be the firm friend of the Africans-ameliorate his condition, point him to the Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world? Then let us, as one man, let our Confederate States come and with one voice- The President; the heads of departments, the members of the provisional Congress, the Governors of the states, the general, colonels, captains of the armies, and all privates-Let our ministers-our whole people say, «In the name of our God we will set up our banners. " And success will be ours. And let all the people say, AMEN! This poem was found included with Reverend Chaffin's sermon. «The Assyrian came down like the wolf on the fold, And his cohorts were gleaming in purple and gold; And the sheen of their spears was like the stars on the sea, When the blue waves roll nightly on deep Galilee. Like the leaves of the forest when summer is green, That host with their banners at sunset was seen. Like the leaves of the forest when autumn hath blown, That host on the morrow lay withered and strewn. For the angel of death spread his wings on the blast And breathed in the face of the foe as he past; And the eyes of the sleepers waxed deadly and chill, And their hearts but once heaved and forever grew still. And there lay the steed with his nostril all wide, But through it there rolled not the breath of his pride, And the foam of his gasping lay white on the turf And cold as the spray of the rock beating sur]. And there lay the rider distorted and pale With the dew on his brow and the dust on his mail. And the tents were all silent, the banners alone, The lances unlifted, the trumpets unblown. And the widows of Ashur are loud in their wail,
46 And the idols are broken in the temples of Baal; And the might of the Gentiles, unsmote by the sword, Hath melted like snow in the glance of the Lord. ))
