Mounting, whirling, sailing,
Full of mirth;
And died at the feet of the weeds;

Droops upon its wizened stem
My lean, unripened heart.
And fain would thither flee;
My heart, O Zion, droops and yearns,
When I remember thee.
Thy sorrowing face to see!
When languid suns are taking leave
Of every drooping tree.
Thy promises of grace
Are pillars to support my hope,
And there I write thy praise.
