How changed and lovely is your face | B |
Where is the sordid busy scheming | A |
That filled all day the market place | B |

Was it but fancy that a rabble | C |
Of money changers bought and sold | D |
Filling with sacrilegious babble | C |
This temple court of solemn gold | D |

You like some hunted child of Jesus | B |
Steal out beneath the moon to pray | E |
