Henry Kirke White.

Majestical He rose: trembled the earth;

The ponderous gate of stone was rolled away;

The keepers fell, the angels, awe-struck, sunk

Into invisibility, while forth

The Saviour of the world walked, and stood

Before the sepulchre, and viewed the clouds

Empurpled glorious by the rising sun.

Graham.
