To have some soul, akin to mine,
Go out o’er all the fields divine,
Link’d with mine own—some soul that I
Had known this side Eternity:
That we, no more to part asunder,
Together there, might gaze and wonder;
Praising the Lord for all things there,
For all his wondrous works and fair,
So vast, so bright: but most, that we
Safe landed there at last, should be!
