Symbol of the Resurrection
Mark 16:3-4
And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulcher?…


A monument erected to the memory of a Spanish lady was of peculiar and happy design. It represented a full-sized marble coffin, with the lid burst open, revealing the place where the body had lain. A Bible and a cross lay in the vacant place upon the grave clothes, and on the inside of the half-raised lid these words were graven: "Non est hic, sed resurrexit.

(Burritt.)
