A Meditation on Death.

Death the old serpent’s son,
Thou hadst a sting once like thy fire,
That carrion hell, and ever burnting fire:
But those black days are o’er;
Thy foolish pride buried thy sting
In the profound and wide
Wound of our Saviour’s side.
And now thouart become atame and harm
A thing we’darenot fear [less thing.

Since we hear.
