BUILDING A TEMPLE A builder builded a lernple, l-le wroughl il wilh grace and skill Pillars and broins and arches All fashioned Jro worlc his will. Men said as lhey saw ils beauly ll shall never lcnow decay. Greal' is lhy slcill, O builderg Thy lame shall endure for aye. A Jreacher builded a Jremple Wilh loving and inifinile care, Planning each arch wilh palience, Laying each s'rone wilh prayer. None praised her unceasing ellorls, None l4new ol her wondrous plan, For Jrhe Jrernple lhe leacher builded Was unseen by Jrhe eyes of rnan. Gone is Jrhe puilder's Temple, Crurnloled inlo Jrhe duslg Low lies each slarely pillar, Food lor consuming rusl, Bur lhe lemple Jrhe Jreacher builded Will lasl while The ages roll, For Thar beaulilul unseen lennple ls a child's imrnorlral soul. lN.
