"Tis like the pearls of dew that drop
On Hermon's ever-fragrant top;

BLESS'D estate! bless'd from above!
When brethren join in mutual love.
"Tis like the precious odours shed
On consecrated Aaron's head,

Or which the smiling heavens distil
On happy Sion's sacred hill.

Which trickled from his beard and breast, For God hath there His favours placed,
Down to the borders of his vest.
And joy, which shall for ever last.

WESTMINSTER. C. M.

CXXXV.

(1, 2. 21.)

PRAISE the Lord with one consent,

Praise Him, all ye that in His house
Attend with constant care;
With those that to His outmost courts
With humble zeal repair.

Let all with thanks His wondrous works
In Sion's courts proclaim;

Let them in Salem, where He dwells,
Exalt His holy Name.
