[Passion's turbulent excess]
Jesus troubled Himself (Gr.)
—xi. 33.
Passion's turbulent excess,
Pure from sin He could not feel;
Rational was the distress,
Wholly subject to His will:
He who did our nature take,
Would its sinless frailties know,
Freely suffer'd for our sake,
Made Himself the Man of woe.
