Between the ringing of bells end the musical clang of chime* I hear a sound like the breaking of chains, all thro’ these Christmas , times, For the thought of the world la waking Out of a slumber deep and long, And the rare la beginning to under stand how Right can master . Wrong. And the eyes of the world are opening wide, and great are the trutha they see; And the heart of the world la singing a song, and Its burden Is "Be free!" Now the thought of the World and the wish of the world and the song of the world will make A force ao strong that the fetters forged for a million years must break. Fetters of superstitious fear have bound the race to creeds That hindered the upward march of man to the larger faith he neyds. Fetters of greed and pride have made the race bow down to kings; But the pompons creed and the costly throne must yield to simpler ' things. The thought of the world has climbed above old paths for centuries • trod: And cloth and crown no longer mean (But stands erect and knows Itself the ' Maker’s first of kin. pd the need of the world and the wish of the world and the song of the world I hear. \thro’ the clanging and clashing of bells, this Christmas time o’ the . year: 11 hear a sound like the breaking of chains, and It seems to say to i me, s voice of one who spoke of old, , "Tho truth shall ntaks men free.” -ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.
