[Page 40]
And the fierce thirst, and the strong pain.
3
Forget? God smiles to see them merry
For his own son was once a boy
They never shall be old and weary
But of their youth shall have great joy
But in the playing fields of heaven
Shall run and leap new washed new shriven
4
Now heaven by golden boys invaded
Scaped from the winters and the storm
Stainless and simple as he made it
God keeps the boy's heart out of harm
The wise old saints look down and smile
They are so young and without guile
