Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Nation's Wail: A Discourse Delivered in the First Presbyterian Church of Detroit, on Sabbath, the 16th of April, 1865, the Day After Receiving the Intelligence of the Brutal Murder of President Abraham Lincoln, by a Brutal Assassin
Hath borne his faculties so meek, hath been So clear in his great office, that his virtues Will plead like angels, trumpet-tongued, against The deep damnation of his taking off; And pity, like a naked, new-born babe, Striding the blast, or heaven's cherubim, horsed Upon the Sightless couriers of the air.
