Rockford Parish: Or the Fortunes of Mr. Mason’s Successors (1856)

Angels and Demons Years lay ahead without knowledge, hope is the comfort to the sleeping. The hours are fading fast into the sunset, prepare the heart for the end. Listen to the final song of the Angel, beware the mask of the Demons. Walk with the Angel, rebuke the wrath of the Demon. Fall into the lake of life, taste the wintered feast. Remember the fallen saints, tame the wild fires within the heart. Pray to the guardian Angel, slip away from the Demonas shadow. Awaken from an enchanted dream, compose of your thoughts onto heaven. Spread the fairest kind acts you can, destroy the thread of hatred inside this world. Angels are watching over you, Demons wait to drown the soul in fire.
