Lyra Consolationis FROM THE Poets of the Seventeenth, Eighteenth SELECTED AND ARRANGED BY CLAUDIA FRANCES HERNAMAN LONDON LONGMANS, GREEN, AND CO. آمند کرد 1926 PREFACE THIS selection of verse is designed to comfort mourners from the first hours of their bereavement, by leading those over whom the sky is darkening, to the Cross and Grave of our great Forerunner, that so they may look onward to His glorious victory over death, and to that final restitution of all things which involves eternal reunion with our beloved in Him. Therefore, it is based on those clauses of the Apostles' Creed in which the Church confesses her belief in her Lord's Crucifixion, Death, and Burial; in His Resurrection, Ascension, and Coming again.
