Will sicken soon and die,

And leprous sin will melt from earthly mould;

· · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·

Yea, Truth and Justice then

Will down return to men,

Orbed in a rainbow; and, like glories wearing,

Mercy will sit between,

Throned in celestial sheen,

With radiant feet the tissued clouds down steering:

And Heaven, as at some festival,
