Description
Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln: Military Order of the Loyal Legion of the United States; Commandery of the State of Pennsylvania; Memorial Meeting; February 13, 1907 Greatest yet with least pretense Foremost leader of his time, Rich in saving common sense And as the greatest only are In his simplicity sublime. What university did the Educator of the Universe choose for the training of His elect son Not a Harvard or a Princeton nor a Yale, not even a Miami or a Hanover or a Wabash. Not any literary centre, classic shade, academic grove or guarded cloister with its scientific culture or philosophic thought. Sometimes, God's school is a wondrous thing, Most strange in all its ways, And of all things on earth Least like what men agree to praise. There is a Divinity which shapes our ends, Rough hew them how we will. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
