“THE NOBLE ARMY OF MARTYRS.”
Theirblood is shedIn confirmation of the noblest claim—Our claim to feed upon immortal truth;To walk with God; to be divinely free.Yet few remember them. They lived unknownTill persecution dragged them into fame,And chased them up to heaven. Their ashes flew——No marble tells us whither.

Theirblood is shed
In confirmation of the noblest claim—
Our claim to feed upon immortal truth;
To walk with God; to be divinely free.
Yet few remember them. They lived unknown
Till persecution dragged them into fame,
And chased them up to heaven. Their ashes flew
——No marble tells us whither.
Cowper.
