The Temple: Sacred Poems and Private Ejaculations/The Dedication

From Wikisource

¶ The Dedication.

LOrd, my first fruits present themselves to thee;Yet not mine neither: for from thee they came,And must return. Accept of them and me,And make us strive, who shall sing best thy Name.Turn their eyes hither, who shall make a gain:Theirs, who shall hurt themselves or me, refrain.
