-Never weather-beaten sail more willing bent to shore.<br>
-Never tired pilgrim's limbs affected slumber more,<br>
-Than my wearied sprite now longs to fly out of my troubled breast:<br>
-O come quickly, sweetest Lord, and take my soul to rest.<br>
-Ever blooming are the joys of Heaven's high Paradise.<br>
-Cold age deafs not there our ears nor vapour dims our eyes:<br>
-Glory there the sun outshines whose beams the blessed only see:<br>
-O come quickly, glorious Lord, and raise my sprite to thee!
