                    "Indiana"
by Arthur Franklin Mapes of Kendallville
Adopted by the 1963 General Assembly


God crowned her hills with beauty,
Gave her lakes and winding streams,
Then He edged them all with woodlands,
As the settings for our dreams.

Lovely are her moonlit rivers,
Shadowed by the sycamores,
Where the fragrant winds of summer
Play along the willowed shores....

The Man Who Received A Severe Mercy

The life story of Sheldon Vanauken. Through a process of careful historical research, including interviews with Vanauken's many freinds, colleagues, and students, Will Vaus reveals to the reader the numerous facets of a complex character. What emerges is the portrait of a man relentlessly in search of beauty, love, and truth, a man who believed
that, in the end, he found all three.
