CANT. I. 4.
—The King brought me into his Chambers—

HYMN 7.

WHen fervent Love, with winged hast, To blessed Jesus flies: With winged hast he comes as fast, With help and choice supplies: Let's not his Church stand at the door, He sends no Servant down; But down the stairs he comes himself, That King of great renown. His Person is the thing She seeks, His Person tends upon Her; His Person is the thing She meets, His Person is Her honour. And up the Stairs he leads his Love; Gives Her a Princely Treat; With sp'ritual Nectar chears Her heart, And Entertainments great. He seasts Her with his Chamber Love; The best of all his store: She seeds upon his Flesh and Blood; Her heart can wish no more:

O Lord! thou art to me a dart: My wounded bleeding heart, Shall still impart her Lovesick Art, And never from thee start.
