[Mere man of earthly origin]
He that is of the earth is earthly, &c.
—iii. 31.
Mere man of earthly origin
Is all infirmity and sin,

His spirit and his speech bewrays:
Jesus, the Lord and God most high,
Reveals the secrets of the sky,
And speaks in blessings from above
The language pure of heavenly love.
