Is not: the pure and uncontaminate blood

Holds its due course, nor fears the frost of age.

One song employs all nations; and all cry,

“Worthy the Lamb, for he was slain for us!”

The dwellers in the vales and on the rocks

Shout to each other, and the mountain-tops

From distant mountains catch the flying joy;

Till, nation after nation taught the strain,

Earth rolls the rapturous Hosanna round.

Behold the measure of the promise fill'd!
