LVIII.

_Quid turbati estis? Videte manus meas et pedes, quia ego ipse sum._

Luc. xxiv. 39.

En me et signa mei, quondam mea vulnera: certe,

Vos nisi credetis, vulnera sunt et adhuc.

O nunc ergo fidem sanent mea vulnera vestram:

O mea nunc sanet vulnera vestra fides.

_Why are ye troubled?... Behold My hands and My feet, that it is I

myself._

'Tis I; behold My proofs, My wounds of old;

Wounds which still bleed, if you will not believe.

O, now to heal your faith My wounds behold,

And healing from your faith My wounds receive.
