When you first girded for this arduous1 track,
And under various whimsical pretexts2
Endowed another with your damned defects,
Could you have dreamed in your despondent3 vein4
That the kind God would make your path so plain?
Non nobis, domine! O, may He still
Support my stumbling footsteps on the hill!
