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.
