On which the Peixce of Gloet died, Flow love and sorrovr mingled dov. n
My richest gain I count but loss. Did e"er such love and sorrow mCit,
And pour contempt on all my pride. Or thorns compose so rich a crown ?
Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast. mv. Were all the realm of nature rrine.
Save in the death of Christ, my God: That were a present far too small
All those vain things, that charm me most, Love so amazing, so divine,
I sacrifice them to His blood. Demands my soul, my life, my all.

Our dear Redeemer on the Cross, See startled nature pale!
In bitter pain is nailed. Then, ransomed sinners, share the woe;
Sore wounded, from His hands and feet Your Saviour's death bewail.
Outflows a fount of blood! In mourning stand beneath the Cross;
