Ode 58
ODE LVIII
Poore man! I am as Dull, as dull can bee;
Dull in my Selfe, with Sin,
For Sin is heavie; I am darke within;
And cannot see
My selfe. Poor man! a Cloud, has spred upon
My Soule, and I am lost; I am undone:
Huge vapour flyes
Betwixt me and my selfe; all Light is gon;
I am a Chaos growne;
Rise, Sun of Glorie, yet at length arise!
*****
Dispell these mists; that I at once may See
My selfe, in my owne Heart; and All, in Thee.
