CANT. II. 11.
For lo, the Winter is past, the rain is ov•• and gone.
[Ver. 12] The time of singing of birds is com••, the voice of the Turtle is heard in our land
[Ver. 13] The fig-tree putteth forth her gre•• figs, and the Vines with the tender grape•• give a good smell. Arise, my love, my fai•• one, and come away.
HYMN 42.
REjoice ye people of the Lords,There is a glorious day;There is a day will break your Cords,And fright your Fears away:The Winter blast is almost past;Farwel the Rain and Flood:Now Antichrist no more shall tastThe sweet of Martyrs blood.There comes a Church-reviving Spring;The Flow'rs adorn the Earth:
descriptionPage 51
The Turtles with the Birds do sing;All hearts are full of Mirth.A time when every Tree shall yield,A pleasant Fruit to God:And all the Creatures of the Field,Shall feel no more his Rod.Rise then, my Love, and come away,Stand ready for the time:Prepare thee, for this long'd for day,And let it find thee mine.Awake! behold, I'm at the door,Let me not find thee sleeping:My Spirit is up, I'le quickly putAn end to all thy weeping.
