THE PROMONTORY by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: NOT ALL THE RANGE OF SEA-BORN LIBERTY
Last Line: SELF-DRIVEN TO THE ROCK, ITS BARRIER, CHRIST.
Subject(s): JESUS CHRIST;

NOT all the range of sea-born liberty
Hath ever for one restless wave sufficed:
So pants the heart, -- of all compulsion free, --
Self-driven to the Rock, its barrier, Christ.
