[His miracles had plainly told]
Jesus said unto them, Neither tell I you, &c.
—xx. 8.
His miracles had plainly told
The' authority of Christ the Lord,
But who would not the facts behold,
Would never have believed His word:
He justly then to them denies
The light which He on babes bestows,
Hides from the prudent and the wise,
And mysteries to the simple shows.
