Lo! to that river in whose mysterious course Lie the dread relics of a people's sin His face ho turns. Tradition will enforce His teachings with memories of yore, wherein, The multitudes were warned to repent, and win Immunity from wrath. Lo! the herald voice Proclaims His coming, judgement to begin, To give the lowly strength, to bid the just rejoice, The victor take his crown, the chosen one his choice.
