THE CORONATION.

Reading edition

’Tis not enough to hold the faith

To saints and sages given;

Truth asks of thee a fealty

Like her fair throne in heaven.

Transmute it into character,—

Translate it into life;

And crown thy creed with golden deed

And love that conquers strife.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
