Upon the Branches of this shading Tree
Little Zacheus sh••ll advanced be:
So—now I`m up, and hither flows the croud
With shouts, with Praises, and Hosannahs loud;
'Tis, 'tis the Lord, now I shall see his Face;
O that I in his eyes may find some grace,
How lov••ly looks he? O! ••ow innocent,
And now on me his radient eyes are bent:
Ha—see he beckons, I••le with speed descend,
And on the wonder-working Lord attend.
