Divine, beatitude and wisdom draw;

And in his prayer, what privilege adored!

Mounting the heavens, and claiming audience there;

Yes! there, amid a high, immortal host

Of seraphs, hymning in eternal choir,

A lip of clay its orisons can send,

In temple, or in solitude outbreathed.

R. Montgomery.

Ascribe ye holiness unto the Lord;

Not unto man, for he is never holy:
