Poëzy

J.P. Hasebroek

12.

One day! ... Whose blessing shall avert the doom? The sacred garb must from thy limbs be torn: The saint retire, in fancied virtue worn, Falls down, at thy revival from the tomb. Hadst thou reliev'd a single poor's distress, Or clad one orphan as good nature bade thee, Bright Seraph's wings would gently overshade thee... But now! thou hast thy shame and nakedness!
