Sing his praise Without delays, Who takes thee by the hand, that thou likewise With him may'st rise; That, as his death calcined thee to dust, His life may make thee gold, and much more, Just. Awake, My lute, and struggle for thy part With all thy art. The cross Taught all wood to resound his naMe Who bore the saMe.
