THE PROPHET'S VISION.
EZEKIEL XLVII.
HE look'd, and from the Temple gate Where the bright orient glow'd, Fast by the altar's hallow'd base A stream like chrystal flow'd.
Bathing the feet, that limpid spring With gentlest murmur crept, Then deepening to a bolder flood In fearless current swept.
Till, spreading out, a river broad In strong, translucent tide, 6 58 POEMS FOR THE SEA.
* Those mighty waters, rushing, roIPd, And foil'd the swimmer's pride.
Oh ! vision of the glorious fount Which the m...eek Hand that fell . Transpierc'd, on Calvary's fatal cross, Brought forth a living well, True symbol of the Gospel's course, Didst thou that Prophet cheer, Who erst on Chebar's lonely banks : Shed the pale captive's tear ?
On that blest river's banks we dwell, We drink its healing tide, So, like the trees Ezekiel saw His vision'd flood beside, May we with fresh, unfading leaf Each changeful season dare, And still the fruits of faith renew Till Heaven's pure clime we share.
- 'If * 9 f * MIDNIGHT THOUGHTS AT SEA.
