Yet these have told how they, as many as with true
And faithful heart fulfilled and loved the good they knew,
The Righteous of the world shall once delivered be
From darkness, and brought in God’s countenance to see:
Which thing they thus recount:—It shall befall one day
In those eternal courts where it is day alway,
Before him will the Just sit ranged in order meet,
The holy Angels all will stand upon their feet,
And while they hymn the praise, the glory and the worth
Of him who by a word created heaven and earth,
