Let each be happy in his own opinion’s zest.
God wills that they who might despair to win His grace,
Shall persevere, not slacken, in their worship’s pace
That they may seek a hopeful one, and him ensue;—
In his society may follow worship’s clue.115
God wishes that His peace should light upon us all;
That His salvation should embrace good, bad, great, small.
That princes and that captives all should turn their face,
In hope and fear, up heavenward, looking for His grace.
That hope and fear are nourished by a curtain’s shade.
