First Line: This day, o soul, I give you a wondrous mirror
Last Line: Faithfully showing you all the things of the world.


This day, O Soul, I give you a wondrous mirror;
Long in the dark, in tarnish and cloud it lay -- But the
cloud has pass'd, and the tarnish gone;
... Behold, O Soul! it is now a clean and bright mirror,
Faithfully showing you all the things of the world.
