THE SMITER by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: THEY BOUND THINE EYES AND QUESTIONED, 'TELL US NOW
Last Line: "WHO SMOTE THEE?"" LORD, I TELL THEM IT IS THOU."
Subject(s): GOD;

They bound Thine eyes and questioned, "Tell us now
Who smote Thee." Thou wast silent. When to-day
Mine eyes are holden, and again they say,
"Who smote Thee?" Lord, I tell them it is Thou.
