An old Roman coin bore the design of an ox standing between a
plow and an altar, thus signifying its readiness for either
service or sacrifice. No symbol could more beautifully represent
the attitude of the true servant of Christ--ready, while the
Master wills, to bow the neck to the yoke and toil in his
service; and just as ready when the call comes, to sacrifice
everything, even life itself. (Text.)--_Zion’s Herald._
