"Without a spot of black or gray,
With honour may I this maintain;
But 'peerless Queen' I did not say.
An hundred and forty thousand gay,
As in the Apocalypse is made plain,
On the hill of Zion he saw them stay,
In vision his spirit looked on them,
For the wedding clad in bright-array,
At the city of New Jerusalem."
"Of Jerusalem in speech I tell;
And what He is if thou wouldst see—
My Lamb, my Lord, my dear Jewel,
My Joy, my Love, my Bliss so free,—
The prophet Isaiah writeth well
'Guiltless, when men upon Him fell
For never a fault nor felony,
As a lamb in the shearer's hands might be,
He was judged by Jews in Jerusalem.'"
Rent on the rood by ruffians bold;
To bear our ills He was full fain,
To suffer our sorrows manifold;
He took upon Him all sin and pain,
Even He of Whom not one sin is told;
On the rude cross stretched faint and cold,
He died for us in Jerusalem."
"At Jerusalem, Jordan and Galilee,
Wherever Saint John came to baptize,
His words with Isaiah's words agree.
On Jesus he lifted up his eyes,
Speaking of Him this prophecy:
'Behold the Lamb of God!' he cries:
'Who bears the world's sins, this is He!
The branches springing from that stem
Who can recount? 'T is He who dies
For our sake in Jerusalem.'"
"In Jerusalem my Lover sweet
Twice as a lamb did thus appear,
Even as the prophets both repeat,
The third time also, as is meet,
In the Revelation is written clear.
Reading a book on His high seat
Midmost the throne that saints ensphere,
The Apostle John beheld Him near;
That book seven sacred seals begem;
And at that sight all folk felt fear
In hell, in earth and Jerusalem."
