The Eternal Father, seated on his everlasting throne, high raised above all height, commai. ded bis surrounding Anels to declare their wishes and sentiments. The Angel of truth first approached. "Create him not.7 she said. k; Falsehood and deception shall dwell upon bis tongue, and a lying spirit rule and reign in his heart. Slander and detraction shall he the delight of bis lipsc; and the, voice of calumny as music to bis ears' Create him not." said the Angel of Jnbucc "Fraud, violence and oppression shall ho the work of his hands, and the: continual machination of his soul My laws shall be trampled under his feet, and mv p.e cepts shall he laugh to scorii. " Create him not' said the. Angel of peace. "War. desolation, bloodshed and murdeiv-hall mat 1c his footsteps, and be the delight of his soul. Even against Thee, Father, shall he raise his rebellious arm, and the fair face of thy Creation shall be disfigured by his violence " 'Create him not,' was heard murmured -on everv side. Rut then arose the fairest Seraph that ever trode the crystal pavements of Heaven. A Yobs of sunt less purity enveloped her frame ; benevolent and compassion beamed from her brow, and her own diamond tear stood trembling in heree. She was the Angel of Mercy. Kneelin.; at the footstool of 'the Parent of all mercies Father!' she cried, O Fatkei ! create him. I will delight to follow his foot-steps. -- I will pour halm into the wound which he sliall iidli'-L and hind up the heart tha shall be lacerated and broken by his cruelties. I will infuse a porti-. n ot mine own spirit into his cuUj : tU!.; shall thy glorious Attribute lv known and worshiped in other worlds than Heaven Father!
