The Side Windows: Gregory Nazianzen

Meek Nazianzen, whom a mother's love
Vow'd from the womb, a Christian Nazarite !
A friend's, a brother's care fill'd thy calm sprite,
And filial grace serene : the hallowing Dove
Then open'd thy full heart to God above,
Seeking in solitudes the gentler light
Of woods and wilds, peace-loving Eremite !
Good Basil ! thy companion gently prove,
Shrinking from pastoral cares : and may Heaven's King
His service not reject, nor choice refuse !

Each for his sphere He mouldeth ; each doth earn
His place from Him ; His Dove hath many hues,
Some lead His flock, while some His praises sing ;
Some in His inner Temple incense burn.
