Israel in Egypt | ||
Prone on the earth,—soon as the Voice they heard,
The sons of Amram fell; and long time lay,
Silently worshipping: then slowly rose,
And, without word, unto the house returned:
Nor that night spake at all,—so with great awe
Their souls were bowed; but, with a brotherly love,
Embraced, and parted, each unto his rest.
The sons of Amram fell; and long time lay,
Silently worshipping: then slowly rose,
And, without word, unto the house returned:
283
Their souls were bowed; but, with a brotherly love,
Embraced, and parted, each unto his rest.
