Homerton.
The following is the title of a book, printed in 1749, for James Hutton,
Fetter Lane:--_Hymns composed for the Use of the Brethren by the Right
Rev. and most Illustrious C. Z._ (Count Zinzendorf?) I transcribe some
specimens.
"God's side hole, hear my prayer,
Accept my meditation;
On thee I cast my care,
With childlike adoration.
While days and ages pass, and endless periods roll,
An everlasting blaze shall sparkle from that hole.
* * * * *
Lovely side hole, dearest side hole!
Sweetest side hole, made for me;
O my most beloved side hole!
I wish to be lost in thee.
O my dearest side hole!
Thou art to my bride soul
The most dear and loveliest place;
Pleura's space!
Soul and body in the pass.
* * * * *
The daughters reverence do,
Christess and praise thee too,
Thou happy Kyria, daughter of Abijah;
We reach each sister of Jehovah,
Manness of the man Jeshuah,
Out of the pleura Hosannah."
