'What is now to children the dearest thing here?
To be the Lamb's lambkins and chickens most dear;
Such lambkins are nourished with food which is best,
Such chickens sit safely and warm in the nest.'
'And when Satan at an hour
Comes our chickens to devour,
Let the children's angels say,
Those are Christ's chicks—go thy way.'
"Yet even the Moravian Hymns are equalled by a poem of Manchester manufacture in the Gospel Magazine for August, 1808, entitled the 'Believer's Marriage in Christ.'"—Southey's Life of Wesley.
