AN @3heavenly song, I dare well say, Is sung on earth to man this day.@1 This is the song that ye shall hear, God is come from His empire, And is made man with high desire, @3This day.@1 He took our kind all of a maid, By ox and ass He was ylaid. Now is fulfilled that Scripture said, @3This day.@1 Ay I wonder this in my mind, That He that all may loose and bind, Would be laid by beasts unkind, @3This day.@1 He is a lord and by nature A maiden's breast He sucked full pure. Heaven and earth be in His cure, @3This day.@1 | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THALATTA!
