ing

COME to my aid, Celestial Wisdom, come;
From my dark mind dispel the doubtful gloom :
My passions still, my purer breast inflame,
To sing that God from whom existence came!

O, BLEST Redeemer, from thy sacred throne-
Where saints and angels sing thy triumphs won,
From that exalted height of bliss supreme

BOYSE,

Look down on those who bear thy Sacred Name;
Restore their ways, inspire them by thy grace,
Thy laws to follow, and thy steps to trace;

Thy bright example to thy doctrine join,

And by their morals prove their faith divine! BoysE.
