LINES.

If GOD should say to me, _Behold!

-- Yea, who shall doubt?

-- They who love others more than me, Shall I not turn, as oft of old, My face from them and cast them out?

So let it be with thee, behold!

_-- I should not care, for in your face Is all GOD'S grace.

If GOD should say to me, _Behold!

-- Is it not well?

-- They who have other gods than me, Shall I not bid them, as of old, Depart into the outer_ HELL?

_So let it be with thee, behold!

_-- I should not care, for in your eyes Is PARADISE.
