The Dies Iræ.
8.
Dreadful King, all power poſſeſſing,
Saving freely thoſe confeſſing,
Save Thou me, O Fount of Bleſſing!
9.
Think, O Jesus, for what reaſon
Thou didſt bear earth's ſpite and treaſon,
Nor me loſe in that dread ſeaſon!
10.
Seeking me Thy worn feet haſted,
On the croſs Thy foul death taſted
Let ſuch travail not be waſted!
11.
Righteous Judge of retribution!
Make me gift of abſolution
Ere that day of execution!
