A poem by Christina Georgina Rossetti

Exultate Deo

________________________________________________
Title:     Exultate Deo
Author: Christina Georgina Rossetti [More Titles by Rossetti]

Many a flower hath perfume for its dower,
And many a bird a song,
And harmless lambs milkwhite beside their dams
Frolic along,--
Perfume and song and whiteness offering praise
In humble, peaceful ways.

Man's high degree hath will and memory,
Affection and desire;
By loftier ways he mounts of prayer and praise,
Fire unto fire,
Deep unto deep responsive, height to height,
Until he walk in white.





[The end]
Christina Georgina Rossetti's poem: Exultate Deo
