n the heavens nor heard the mighty song?"
"Yes, and all the night we have been full of wonder. Listen!"
Again the air trembled with that peal of song:
"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good-will towards
men."
Slowly it sank into silence. Vergilius drew the maiden close and
touched her ear with his lips and whispered: "Love has opened our
hearts to the knowledge of mighty things. It has led us to the Prince
of Peace."
Then said the maiden: "Let us build a temple wherein to worship him,
and make it a holy place."
"And call it home," said the young knight, as he kissed her.
