CANT. VIII. 8.
We have a little sister, and she hath no breasts: what shall we do for our sister in the day when she shall be spoken for?

HYMN 140.

WE have a little Sister, Lord, That hath no Breasts, as yet; There is no place for means of Grace: O do not her forget.

Page 197

Thy Servants are greatly athirst That joyful day to see: When thou the Cords and Yokes shall burst▪ From her as well as we. What shall we do for those that lye In Natures dungeon still▪ When wilt thou speak for them that dye For want of Sions Hill! Those that have neither Milk nor Breasts, That still lye weltring in The Blood of uncoverted State: O call them out of Sin. Our Sister hath a precious Soul To save, as well as we. Would all the World were thine, and not A Rebel we could see. O say thou to our Sister, Come, Leave Babel to her flames: Let her not perish in the doom Of Babels wretched names.
