STAR-JESSAMINE by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: DISCERNING STAR FROM SISTER STAR
Last Line: ALONE DISCERNETH EACH BY NAME.
Subject(s): JASMINE;

DISCERNING Star from Sister Star,
We give to each its name;
But ye, O countless Blossoms, are
In fragrance and in flame
So like, that He from whom ye came
Alone discerneth each by name.
