PREFACE. 


'•'Silvery  Echoes"  is  designed  to  fill  the  place  in  the  Primary  and  Inter- 
mediate Departments  of  the  Sunday-school  similar  to  that  now  occupied  by 
the  "Song  Treasury"  in  the  Main  School.  Hence  the  two  go  hand  in 
hand  on  their  mission  of  praise. 

May  its  happy  sonnets  vibrate  throughout  the  land  in  universal  praise, 
until,  in  silvery  echoes,  they  reach  the  Hills  of  Eternity  in  adoration  of  Him 
who  is  worthy  to  receive  "  power,  and  riches,  and  wisdom,  and  strength,  and 
honor,  and  glory,  and  blessing"  forever  and  ever  !     Amen. 

,   J.   H.   Kurzenknabe.
