An echo of St. Thomas’ hymn

Came faintly o’er the wave;

The Jesuit’s eyes with tears grew dim

At thought of souls to save.

And “Bone Pastor, Panis vere,”

His firm lips softly spoke,

O “Jesu, nostri miserere,”

From heart, love-burdened, broke.

And “Lauda Sion, Salvatorem

Thy glad waves seemed to cry;
