To waken the eyes of pride and truth.
Blessèd therefore thy happy folk are we.
Tho’ happy to-day we be,
Our happier times are yet to see.

But chiefest of all in the highest height
To Love that sitteth in timeless might,
That tameth evil, and sorrow ceaseth.
And now we wish you again,1620
Again and again,
