AMPHORA
II
EHOLD within the veil withdrawn
Thy mighty star on chaos dawn,
Thy beatific breath complete
The purpose of the PARACLETE.
Where sinful sorrow doth oppress,
Thy sinless sorrow doth redress,
O maid whom seven demon lords
Thrust through the heart with seven swords !
O sweet and sober mother-maid,
Within my heart each bleeding blade
Shudders, as, meditating Thee,
Thy mercy sheds its shower on me !
O mother Mary, from Thy soul
Distil the balm to make me whole ;
And when the dreary days are done
Lead up my spirit to Thy Son !
Amen.
