HYMN 93. Cant. 5. 12.—His Eyes are like the Eyes of Doves.
1
I'll tell you farther, that if suchA Person you shall see,
Whose Eyes like Doves are wash't with Milk
and Water this is he?
95
2
He hath a killing Eye, 'twill Piercethrough Adamantine Ears;
And wound a Rock but with a look,
and melt it into Tears.
3
Eyes that are clear and fitly set,that can see all things past,
And all things present and to come,
as long as Time shall last:
4
Whose Eyes are Pure, Holy and Chast,never defil'd with Sin;
That never was in the least Promp't
to take foul Objects in.
5
If such a One you meet, whose Eyeslike Flames, and Lamps of Fire
Strikes Dead, and yet gives Life thereby,
tis he that I desire?
6
This is the Man I seek, and praise,All-seeing, and All-Eye:
Tell him, if such a one you meet,
'tis for his Love, I Die!
