PER PACEM AD LUCEM, I AM THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE JOHN. XI. 25. --verse on back HE WHO DIED, IS RISEN NOW: HE, WHO BORE THE CRUEL THORN, WEARS LOVE'S CROWN UPON HIS BROW! HAIL, O GLAD ASCENSION MORN! HE, WHO FOR TO DAY FOR THEE CROWNED WITH EASTER JOYS ABOVE, MAKE THY YEARS OF LIFE TO BE ONE GLAD EASTERTIDE OF LOVE! -- Samuel K. Cowman M.A --verse on back MAY LOVE'S DEAR LIGHT AROUND THEE SHINE AND LOVE'S DEAR PEACE DESCENDING BE, OUTPOURED BY HIM ON THEE AND THINE, WHO ROSE THIS DAY FOR THINE AND THEE! NOR MAY LOVE'S JOYS WITH EASTER CEASE, BUT STILL WITH THEE AND THINE ABIDE, AND ALL THY DAYS IN JOY AND PEACE FLOW LIKE A FADELESS EASTERTIDE! -- Samuel Cowan M.A
