CANT. II. 10.
My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away.

HYMN 41.

WHose is this rousing Voice, I hear, That breathes so sweet an Air, Through Walls and Lattices? so dear, So ravishing, so rare! 'Tis my Beloved's voice, I know, That Courts my drousie mind: That bids me rise from things below, And leave my self behind. Arise, my Love, and come away, Rouse from thy Morning sleep: Rise up, my fair One, no delay; Tho lock't in Slumbers deep. My God, I come, I find no rest, No Bed of Ease, but thee: The present World is at the best, A Bed of Thorns to me. My God, I come; but oh, how loath▪ I've drunk a sleeping Cup: And O, the dulness! O the sloath! Dear Jesus help me up:

Then will I come away, and leave My Sins and Fears behind me: Farwel vain Pleasures, let me go, And let my Jesus find me.
