VIII. Presentation to the President and Fellows by Professor Perrin of Candidates for Honorary Degrees; with the Conferring of Honorary Degrees. IX. Ein FivSTE Burg, A mighty fortress is our God, A bulwark never failing; Our Helper He amid the flood Of mortal ills prevailing. For still our ancient foe Doth seek to work our woe; His craft and power are great. And armed with cruel hate. On earth is not his equal. Did we in our strength confide. Our striving would be losing,— Were not the right man on our side. The Man of God’s own choosing. Dost ask who that may he? Christ Jesus, it is He, I«ord Sabaoth His name. From age to age the same. And he must win the battle. . . Martin Luther And though this world, with devils filled. Should threaten to undo us. We will not fear, for God hath willed His will to triumph through us. The Prince of darkness grim. We tremble not for him, His rage we can endure. For lo! his doom is sure, One little word shall fell him. That word above all earthly jx wers. No thanks to them, abideth; The Spirit and the gifts are ours Through Him who with us sidetli. Let goods and kindred go, This mortal life also; The body they may kill, God’s truth abideth still. His kingdom is forever. X. Benediction. XI. Hui.digunc s March, from “ Sigurd Jorsalfar,” . . Edwatd Grieg 117

For that Thou dost their pray’rs still hear and dost thereto agree : Thy people all both far and near with trust shall come to Thee. Our wicked life so far exceeds, that we should fall therein : But, Lord, forgive our great misdeeds. and purge us from our sin. The man is blest whom Thou dost clmse within Thy courts to dwell: Thy house and temple he shall use. with pleasures that excel. Of Thy great justice hear. O God. our health of Thee doth rise: The hope of all the earth abroad, and the sea-coasts likewise. With strength Thou art beset about, • and compast with Thy pow’r: Thou mak’st the mountains strong and stout, to stand in cvr’v show'r. The swelling seas Thou dost asswage. and make their stream full still: Thou dost restrain the people’s rage, and rule them at Thy will. The folk that dwell thro’out the earth shall dread Thy signs to see : Which morn and ev'tiing with great mirth send praises up to Thee. IV. Addrkss by the President. V.
