-Art thou weary, art thou languid,
-Art thou sore distress'd?
-"Come to me," saith One, "and, coming,
-Be at rest."
-Hath he marks to lead me to him,
-If he be my Guide?
-"In his feet and hands are wound-prints,
-And his side."
-Is there diadem, as Monarch,
-That his brow adorns?
-"Yea, a crown, in very surety,
-But of thorns."
-If I find him, if I follow,
-What his guerdon here?
-"Many a sorrow, many a labor,
-Many a tear."
-If I still hold closely to him,
-What hath he at last?
-"Sorrow vanquished, labor ended,
-Jordan passed."
-If I ask him to receive me,
-Will he say me nay?
-"Not till earth and not till heaven
-Pass away."
-Finding, following, keeping, struggling,
-Is he sure to bless?
-"Saints, apostles, prophets, martyrs
-Answer, Yes."}}
