VOLURA'S VISION.
89
And then the angel to Volura said,"Behold! yon silv'ry cloud that floats aboveShall waft thee gently on thy earthward way."As seraph fingers touched the golden lyres,Volura floated on that cloud away;While hallelujahs filled the dome of heav'n,And round and round the crystal arches rangThe anthems loud and deep, by seraphs raisedTo Him who ever was, and knows no end.
