[How deep and unperceived in man]
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock, &c.
—xiii. 38.
How deep and unperceived in man
The wound of self-presuming pride!
Only the great Physician can
Reveal what nature strives to hide;
Righteous, and wise, and gracious too,
He lets His loved apostle fall,
Lays the wound open to our view,
And thus provides a cure for all.
