Bright shadows of true Rest! some shoots of bliss; Heaven once a week; The next world's gladness prepossest in this; A day to seek; Eternity in time; the steps by which We climb above all ages; Lamps that light Man through his heap of dark days; and the rich And full redemption of the whole week's flight! The pulleys [108] unto headlong man; Time's bower; The narrow way; Transplanted Paradise; GOD's walking hour, The cool o' th' day: The Creature's jubilee -- God's parle with dust; Heaven here; [61]Man [109] on those hills of myrrh, and flowers; Angels descending; the returns of trust; A gleam of glory, after six-days-showers! Footnotes: [107] Son-days, so spelt here, probably only for Sundays [108] pulleys, ropes to restrain or guide [109] See Note |
