HENRY VAUGHAN

Either disperse these mists, which blot and fill

My perspective still as they pass : Or else remove me hence unto that hill, Where I shall need no glass.

��JOHN BUNYAN

$66. The Shepherd Boy sings in the Galley of Humiliation

E that is down needs fear no fall,

He that is low, no pride ; He that is humble ever shall Have God to be his guide.

��H

��I am content with what I have,

Little be it or much : And, Lord, contentment still I crave,

Because Thou savest such.

Fullness to such a burden is

That go on pilgrimage : Here little, and hereafter bliss,

Is best from age to age.
