Such was his Out-side: But* That, once within, Thou mayest not, yet, behold; — For fear of Sin: It's* Dazzling Glory (Mortal) would amaze! And make thee— Idolize It's * Sun-bright rays: Thy Sin would Crucify, what Grace hath Crowned, And Thou with shame It's Glory quite Confound. No; —Stay a while: — First, Get to Heaven; And than Gaze-on! And view the In-side of the Man: Then Love, Adore, Admire, Triumph; And Sing Eternal Hallelu-jahs to thy King. That Pious Soul* disclaims thy Worship; — He (Thy Fellow-Saint) will worship God with thee.
