Show WHO WAS CAINS WIFE? Preaching at the Temple Baptist Church last Sunday Rev. French E. Oliver, D. D., of Kansas City, chose for his theme "Cain's Wife," and in the course of his sermon stated that the question, "Who was Cain's wife?" Is of more Importance than "Where did he get her?" I append a few rhythmic rhy-thmic thoughts on the question: Where did he get her? Who was her brother? Had she a sister? Had she a mother? Was she pre-Adainic Born before history With her identity Shrouded in mystery? Maid of Phoenicia, Egypt, Arabia, Africa, Indian, Or sun-kissed Suabia? Who was her father? Was he a viking, Cruising about Just to his liking: Out of the Whenceness Over the water, Into the Where Bringing his daughter? Native of Norway, Denmark or Sweden, Lured by the charms Of the garden of Eden? Blonde or brunette? Rounded or slender? Fiery or frigid? Haughty or tender? Why are her graces Unknown to fame? Where did Cain meet her? What was her name? Tell me, ye sages, Students of Life, Answer my query: Who was Cain's wife? Los Angeles Graphic. |
