Notes

  • Author's note: Written on reading the following passage in "Judah's Lion," by Charlotte Elizabeth, page 186: "Lord how long? Still must the children of thy chosen come to these shores, the guests of a day, and depart into renewed exile? Oh! when will thou set thine hand to gather us from the four winds, and plant thy people once more upon thy holy mountain, Jerusalem! Lord how long?"
