Come, Saints, and adore him, &c. O garden of Olivet, dear honour'd spot, 'Twas here he encounter'd with infinite wrath,. And conquer'd by love that was ftronger than. death; 'Twas here he engaged the Lion of Hell; Beneath his ftrong arm all our enemies fell. Come, Saints, and adore him, &c. A DIS. |
