A ROBE OF PURPLE — — A CROWN OF GOLD S c B S Purple— YMBOL of imperial majesty — emblem of stately sovereignty Found its humble beginning in crushed and yielded life; For the drops of the fluid taken from tiny molluscan fish Required the utmost pressure, and finally, death itself. Vast heaps of shells remaining- -a poignant story to tell Of life that was given as sacrifice that splendor might excell. ATCHING the precious liquid as it flowed from the bruised body, The dyer jealously hoarded it because he could see its worth; He knew that the sacrificial drops were priceless beyond compare For they soon would be used in the making of a robe for a king to wear. EHOLD 1 The robe 1 A distinctive garment of royalty! Ready, waiting to be placed on the shoulders of the one who is worthy. But alas 1 There is something yet that is lacking; The picture is not complete An anvil, a hammer, a fire, A man with a mass of ore Labor, patience- -pounding, refining, but as the man works on He sees not the imperfections as he dreams of the finished crown. ACRIFICE — refining, the robe and the crown achieved; Death dyed the robe- pliability, in the hands of the goldsmith Brought forth from the ore — the crown. The perfect ensemble, prepared for a king That none else may wear,- Death, where is thy sting? Great Dyer 1 Great Goldsmith 1 Great God of our lives ' Our bodies we give — so insignificant--so unrefined; But take them and crush them ' til the pure purple dye Gushes forth to be used, to be set in a robe That only a king may don And take of the ore so imperfect, and yet So full of potential qrandeur; Let the hammer, the anvil, the fire do their work Until the crown stands perfected and ready for wear. 0. glorious day ' We shall stand before Thee; Then the robe Thou wilt place on our shoulders And the crown Thou wilt set on our brows. And then, we shall know that the pain which we suffered in giving them birth Was little compared to the glories which reveal their final worth ! DOROTHY M.SMELTZER, Second Year Class
