A
-
Bright shadows of true Rest some shoots of blissB
Heaven once a weekC
The next world's gladness prepossest in thisB
A day to seekC
Eternity in time the steps by whichD
We Climb above all ages Lamps that lightE
Man through his heap of dark days and the richD
And full redemption of the whole week's flightE
-
-
-
The Pulleys unto headlong man time's bowerF
The narrow wayG
Transplanted Paradise God's walking hourF
The Cool o'th' dayG
The Creatures' Jubilee God's parle with dustH
Heaven here Man on the hills of Myrrh and flowersI
Angels descending the Returns of TrustH
A Gleam of glory after six days' showersI
-
-
-
The Church's love feasts Time's PrerogativeJ
And InterestH
Deducted from the whole The Combs and hiveK
And home of restL
The milky way chalked out with suns a clueM
That guides through erring hours and in full storyN
A taste of Heav'n on earth the pledge and cueM
Of a full feast And the Out Courts of gloryN
