[To David's Son and sovereign Lord]
But they cried, saying, Crucify Him, &c.
—xxiii. 21.
To David's Son and sovereign Lord
Hosanna was the people's cry,
Their King they yesterday adored,
To-day they sentence Him to die:
So many blessings He bestow'd,
So many wonders wrought in vain!
Such the benignity of God,
And such the' ingratitude of man!
