168 POEMS AND SONGS
In light of God’s pure peace how his face shone, lifted up,
‘When white-haired at the altar he held th’ atoning cup.
In light of God’s peace came his word o’er the wave,
In light of God’s pure peace sound the sweet psalms he
gave. :
In light of God’s pure peace, as its sunbeam curtains fall
To hide him from us, stands now his memory for all.
AT A BANQUET FOR
PROFESSOR LUDV. KR. DAA
Yoururut friends here a circle form,
Elder foes now surrender.
Feel among us in safety, warm,
Toward you our hearts are tender.
Once again on a hard-fought day
Hero-like you have led the way,
Smiting all that before you stood;—
But now be good!
With no hubbub, without champagne,
Dress-suit, and party-collar,
We would honor o’er viands plain
Grateful our “grand old scholar”!
When all quiet are wind and wave,
Seldom we see this pilot brave; —
When storm-surges our ship might whelm,
He takes the helm!
