Beneath this mouldering canopy Once shone the bright and busy eye : But start not at the dismal void...
Pàgina 172 - Has bound me in its six-days' chain, This bursts them, like the strong man's bands, And lets my spirit loose again.
Pàgina 384 - Could my tears for ever flow, Could my zeal no languor know, These for sin could not atone ; Thou must save, and thou alone : In my hand no price I bring, Simply to thy cross I cling.
