‘PSALM CXXXVI
Translated and applicd.
as Juda’ ’s sons sat by the Babylonian stroame, °
And wept when they remembered Sion’s land :
So, when onus, O Lord, ‘terrestrial glory beams,
We mourn our absence from the heavenly band.
Upon tho drooping willows, by the fortile ‘ban key,
Their tuneless harps negle ected lay unstrung
So wo dojected leave those thoughtless jocund ranks
Where woalth and pomp and festive deeds are sung.

The Babylonian asked his pensive rane
To sing a hymn of Salems sacred strai
And pleasure’s child dosires to fill bis erect hall
Wi ith sounds but suited to Religion’ 's fane .
-How shall we sing, the joyless sons of f Teracl cried,
- ..'Phe songs of God in an unholy pt
And shall we then, O Lord, profane for despot pride,’
. Those lays which breathe but for an humble raco?

- Forgotten bo, for ever, my right hand
_ Should we not cherish thy sweet mercies, syst dove!
ay we no more these blessings understa
Should I not make Jerusalem i my source ‘of j joy,
Then may my faithless tongue cleave to it’s roof! -
Should other praise than thine, O Lord, my lips employ,
\ Let every sweet, those lips be kept aloof!
Bo mindful; Lord! of Edon’s children in that day,
Fora Chief with ver and shield, and helm to his place of |
