Yea, take him bravely from the hand

That reach'd him forth from nothingness,

That took his tired soul to keep

All night, then reach'd him out from sleep

And sat him equal in the land;

Sent out from where the angels are,

A soul new-born, without one whit

Of bought or borrow'd character.

Ah, bless us! if we only could

As ready spin and willing weave
