The Cathedral, or the Catholic and Apostolic Church in England ::

Upon the solitary shore
Stood Justin, wrapt in Plato's lore,
Seeking, with self-abstracted mind,
The beatific light to find.
A grey hair'd man on that lone wild,
With venerable aspect mild,
Before him came, and bade him scan
Visions too high for sinful man:—
“Pray thou to God both day and night
“To ope to thee the gates of light,
“Reveal'd of God in Christ alone.”
In Justin's breast a fire was sown;—
Borne heav'n-ward in that glowing flame,
His mantle he let fall, a Martyr's honour'd name.
