this , that the introduction of the n cannot be accounted for , as the plural of J ? K El or Al would be CD ^ K Elim * The derivation , then , tvhich seems most likely , is from an unused verb rbtK , corresponding with the Arabic ^ dl aleh , he worshiped * The n in these verbs is preserved in all the derivatives , and the noun would signify an object of worship , numen venerandum , omnique cultu divino persequendum . This derivation is given by Robertson , author of the Clavis Pentateuchi , by the lexicographers Simonis
and Gesenius , by the grammarian Schroeder , and by Rosenmiiller . It may be added , that the only rational derivation which has been given of Q'Dti ? heaven , is from-a word corresponding to the Arabic verb to be high ; and though it is possible to lay too much stress on a reference to the cognate or derived languages , these examples shew that they ought not to be neglected . According to L . de Dieu , quoted by Rosenmiiller , the singular \ OW heaven ,
is used in the JEthiopic language , as one differing in termination only is in Syriac and Arabic , so that the derivation from ttfK fire , and CD'D water , must be given up , as well as the dreams of the Hutchinsonians , founded on a derivation from CD 1 W to place , which those who are curious about such matters may find fully recorded by Bates and Park hurst .

Praise to Thee , all-holy God , From the world , the race , Thou rulest—From the green earth ' s dewy sod , From the wayward hearts Thou schoolest , Sometimes with a teaching stern , Till Thy saving truth they learn !
Teach us , glprious Being , still In our hearts to feel Thy glory ! Nature ever works Thy will—May we read her gentle story , And , like her , obey the One , Universal and Alone I Crediton , June 19 , 1831 .
