Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Proceedings at the Laying of the Corner Stone, of the Sage College of the Cornell University, May 15, 1873
Most High and Holy God, before whom all dark ness is as the light, and all wisdom of man is but dark ness, we humbly and joyfully acknowledge thee to be our Creator and Redeemer. Beneath this open vault, in the broad temple of the world Thou hast made, rejoicing in this genial air and this goodly assemblage of scholars of truth, we bow our hearts and implore thy blessing upon this act of consecration.
