Gold I have none, but I present my need, O Thou, that crown'st the will, where wants the deed. Where Rams are wanting, or large Bullocks thighs, There a poor Lamb's a plenteous sacrifice. Take then his Vowes, who, if he had it, would Devote to Thee, both incense, myrrhe, and gold, Upon an Altar rear'd by Him, and crown'd Both with the Rubie, Pearle, and Diamond. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SONG, WRITTEN AT SEA, IN THE FIRST DUTCH WAR, 1665 ... by CHARLES SACKVILLE (1637-1706) REPRESSION OF WAR EXPERIENCE by SIEGFRIED SASSOON PICTURESQUE; A FRAGMENT by JOHN AIKIN A CLEAR NIGHT by KARLE WILSON BAKER ASHWEDNESDAY by JOSEPH BEAUMONT TREES IN WINTER by ARTHUR WILLIAM BEER MORGUE: 2.
