In Paradise this night, this night, with Me.”

. . . . . . . .

O Christ, the King!

We also wander on the desert-hills,

Though haunted by Thy call, returning sweet

At morn and eve. We will not come to Thee

Till Thou hast nailed us to some bitter cross,

And made us look on Thine, and driven at last

To call on Thee with trembling and with tears.—

Thou lookest down in love, upbraiding not,
