THE ANGEL AT THE SEPULCHRE.

In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of

the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.

And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord

descended from, heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door,

and sat upon it. His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment

white as snow: and for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as

dead men.

And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know

that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for he is risen,

as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. And go quickly, and

tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead and, behold, he goeth

before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.

And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and

did run to bring his disciples word.--Matthew xxviii, 1-8.
