First Line: Through your quiet-souled attendance
Last Line: You are king by god's good pleasure.
Subject(s): Morike, Eduard (1804-1875)
THROUGH your quiet-souled attendance
Upon verse and your vocation
Runs a holy self-dependence
And a smiling resignation.
Where's the need for you to cherish
Far-brought beauty, far-sought treasure?
Of your house and of your parish
You are king by God's good pleasure.
