by Unknown

To what concerns me not to see;

That deafness might possess mine ear,

To what concerns me not to hear;

That Truth my tongue might always tie

From ever speaking foolishly;

That no vain thought might ever rest,

Or be conceived, in my breast;

That by each word, and deed, and thought,

Glory may to my God be brought!

Thomas Ellwood.
