Стр. 219 - A noble army: men and boys, The matron and the maid ; Around the Saviour's throne rejoice, In robes of light arrayed. They climbed the steep ascent of heaven Through peril, toil, and pain : O God, to us may grace be given To follow in their train.
Стр. 73 - Oh that I had wings like a dove! Then would I flee away — " the choirmaster's white hands were fluttering downwards in the dusk, and the chorus sank with them — "flee away and be at rest!
