NUMBER:6982
AUTHOR:Edmund Hamilton Sears (1810–1876)
QUOTATION:For lo! the days are hastening on,
  By prophet-bards foretold,
When with the ever-circling years,
  Comes round the age of gold;
When Peace shall over all the earth
  Its ancient splendors fling
And the whole world send back the song
  Which now the angels sing.
