HEAVEN REFLECTED.
On Sinai's mount, on God's appointed place,When Israel's leader ceas'd to talk with God,
Israel with awe beheld him, for there glow'd
Jehovah's splendour on his servant's face.
So they, on Sion's mount who love to trace
His lineaments in blissful vision show'd,
Their hearts, through joy of that divine abode,
Reflect the brightness of celestial grace.
The fruit bespeaks its soil. Angelick food
Sweetens man's nature; and cherubick lyres
Tune him to cherubs' notes. The soul, imbued
With heavenly thoughts, to heavenly things aspires:
And, in the mirror of God's Gospel view'd,
Seeks to transcribe the image she admires.
