The North Transept: The Psalms V

O griefs of fall'n mankind and sympathies
Of Heaven, like quiet stars that on the night
Look forth, and tell of their own happier skies.
There Christ Himself conceals from ruder sight
Himself, and His own sorrows infinite,
Beneath the robe of fleshly types, which hide
His glory, dimly seen in skirts of light, —
Himself, and in Himself His suffering Bride,
Present to strengthen her, ta'en from His bleeding side.
