Keep the old and young within thy walls.

require them from among thy number.

sorrowful, but thou shalt be merry and have abundance.

Embrace thy children until I come and shew mercy unto them: for my wells run over, and my
grace shall not fail.

he shall give you everlasting rest; for he is nigh at hand, that shall come in the end of the world.

evermore.

openly.

39
Which are departed from the shadow of the world, and have received glorious garments of
the Lord.
