FROM JERUSALEM (1804).
TO THE JEWS.
THE fields from Islington to Marybone,
To Primrose-hill and St. John's-wood;
Were builded over with pillars of gold,
And there Jerusalem's pillars stood.
Her little ones ran on the fields,
The Lamb of God among them seen,
And fair Jerusalem his Bride,
Among the little meadows green.
Pancras and Kentish-town repose
Among her golden pillars high;
Among her golden arches which
Shine upon the starry sky.
The Jews-harp-house and the Green Man,
The ponds where boys to bathe delight,
The fields of cows by Willan's farm,
Shine in Jerusalem's pleasant sight.
She walks upon her meadows green;
The Lamb of God walks by her side:
And every English child is seen,
Children of Jesus and his Bride.
