And thou shalt see our sister, that sweet flower, Transplanted in the bud, matured in heaven, So fair, so beautiful, where the priceless dower Of truth and beauty evermore is given, To sing the songs of seraphs, tune her lyre Where countess multitudes chant hymns divine, Intoning anthems in that angel choir Who sing new songs.--Such evermore is thine, Sweet sister. The saintly office of those hearts that love With love unearthly, destined thus to move.
