June 4

But, like a virtuous medicine, self-diffused

Through all men's hearts thy love shall sink and float;

Till every feeling false, and thought unwise,

Selfish, and seeking, shall, sternly disused,

Wither, and die, and shrivel up to nought;

And Christ, whom they did hang 'twixt earth and skies,

Up in the inner world of men arise.
