[Suffice, O Lord, the season pass'd]

Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth. —vi. 19.

Suffice, O Lord, the season pass'd;
Henceforth I every good refuse,
To this vile earth which ties me fast,
Which nature would regret to lose,
I set my heart on things above,
And want no treasure but Thy love.
