May 9 Mary A. Lathbury, 1841–1913 Ye shall have a song, as in the night when a holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goeth with a pipe to come into the mountain of the Lord, to the mighty One of Israel. (Isaiah 30:29 KJV) Those evening clouds, that setting ray, and beauteous tints, sure to display their great Creator’s praise; Then let the short-lived thing called man, whose life’s comprised within a span, to Him his homage raise. —Sir Walter Scott It
