843.

[Who untried himself can know?]

They . . . receive the word with gladness, &c. —iv. 16, 17.

Who untried himself can know?
Trials make the heart appear:
Joy if Thou on me bestow,
Guard it, Lord, with modest fear;
Nature's ostentatious pride,
Self-delight far off remove,
Then I shall the test abide,
Rooted deep in humble love.
