"Set Your Mind On Things Above". - collosians 3:2

Higher, through this loftier
Discretion of mind
Than what does flash, sky-winging
To Earth's space confined

Places one, which bright state in
Is joy's true Heaven.
Clearer, purer. Whose source is
God. Ever risen.

Lyre-clasping, a warbler, too
Myself, of love songs.
Miss, smiling meek, attested!
Which trait there belongs!
