Its ^' streams from Lebanon " are nothing less than the "fresh springs" that gush from Holy Writ, as from the Smitten Eock of Moses ; from its Patriarchs and Prophets, its sweet singers, its Apostles and Evangelists. Those "gardens" and fountains of chaste delights, are, as you have been reminded, the litanies and hymns of all Saints ; the Liturgies of the martyrs and confessors who have handed down to us the Holy Scriptures and the gifts that come by the Laying-on of hands.
