248. 7s. M. Milman.

"They shall look on Him whom they pierced."

1Bound upon the accursed tree,

Faint and bleeding, who is he?

By the cheek so pale and wan,

By the crown of twisted thorn,

By the side so deeply pierced,

By the baffled, burning thirst,

By the drooping death-dewed brow.

Son of man! 'tis thou! 'tis thou!
