O Syon fo golden, O City {o pure ! Thy Beauty and Brightnefs what Heart can endure? I know not, I know not, the Joy and the Light Which in thy grand Portals will burft on my Sight, And vanquifhed I falter to utter thy Praife, Am conquered, exhaufted, thy Glories to raife. Fair Syon ! thy Halls are refounding with Song, Full, full of the Paeans of Earth's mar- tyred Throng, Bright Bands of the BlelTed, their Prince ftands between. And fhining the City with Light aye ferene. Laus Patrice Celejlis.... 13 There Paftures are flowing in unfading Spring, And there is the Throne of the Lamb and the King, And there is the Sound of the Song and the Feaft, And there are the Saints and there is the Prieft ; And there in our Syon, in calm, holy Seats, A Leader in Splendor his loved People meets. When feen thou unfoldeft, O City renowned, To the Eyes of the Soul thy Bleffings profound ; But the Light deep within me, the Edge of the mind. Alone while on Earth thy Bleffings can find ; 14- Laus Patrice Celejlis, Still all Hearts burning now with Hope at thy Gate, Shall reach thy Rewards and poffefs them by Fate.
