Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Poetical Sketches of the Messiah
That I may sing (if not presumptuous) that Which else were unattained by human art, The mystery of God's deep, boundless love, Revealed in Christ his Son. In this last age Unblest, still must the sacred lyre, unstrung, On monumental cypress hang? Who dare With hand unhallowed touch those holy strings Or who can catch from echo's latest strain The fading melody-recall the seers.
