CANT. I. 8.
If thou know'st not (O thou fairest among wo∣men) go thy ways forth by the footsteps of the flocks, and feed thy kids beside the shepherds tents.
HYMN 17.
O Thou my fairest one!(Thus my beloved spake)If thou would'st know what thou must do,And with my Saints partake.Go up to yonder Mount,Thence look, and thou shalt spye,Clear as the Sun, what must be done,Presented to thine Eye:Seest thou them folded Flocks,Whose heart the Spirit tyes:Whom Gospel order calls intoDistinct Societies?Seest thou the Fields, where theyEnjoy their heavenly feed?The Shepherds stand at my command,To guide them at their need.Their Magna Charta isMy Word; my Law their Guide:
descriptionPage 21
O follow them that follow me,Their foot shall never slide:There go, and joyn thy self;Thy Soul there feed and feast;Follow their steps to Pastors Tents,And there thy Soul shall rest.
