George Herbert - The Temper (II)George Herbert - The Temper (II)
Work rating: Low


It cannot be.  Where is that mightie joy,     Which just now took up all my heart?     Lord! if thou must needs use thy dart, Save that, and me; or sin for both destroy. The grosser world stands to thy word and art;     But thy diviner world of grace     Thou suddenly doth raise and race, And ev`ry day a new Creatour art. O fix thy chair of grace, that all my powers     May also fix their reverence:     For when thou dost depart from hence, They grow unruly, and sit in thy bowers. Scatter, or binde them all to bend to thee:     Though elements change, and heaven move;     Let not thy higher court remove, But keep a standing majestie in me.
