"Men's hearts are full of laughter wild,
Their lives are full of sin ”

“ In the advertisement prefixed to the series of volumes already published, under the title of the "GOOD CHILD'S LIBRARY," the publishers gave notice of their intention to issue another series, similar in character and design, to be devoted to subjects from the Old Testament, as the other had been to the New. ”

THE FLOOD CONTENTS.
THE FLOOD.
I.
THE WICKEDNESS OF MAN.
Behold how kind and merciful
Our heavenly Father was,
To bear so long with sinful men,
Who had transgressed His laws.

They disobeyed the Lord;
They followed their own thoughts, nor walked
According to His word.
And men were multiplied on earth,
They spread both far and wide ”
