Religion
Psalm 133
From A Version of the Psalms of David (1714)
Religion
Behold the chief of Man's Delights,
Where Brethren mutual Love unites!
Sweet as the Ointment which was shed
By Sacred Hands on Aaron's Head;
When from his Face and Beard it fell,
Of rich Perfume his Garments smell,
Fresh as the Dew which on the Hills,
Sion and Hermon, God distils.
In which Celestial Drops descend
Blessings, and Life which never end.
