GOD'S PERFECT LAWS IN SECRET TAUGHT...

    God's perfect laws in secret taught
    By nature's potent drink,
    I always in my studies sought
    A place where I could think.

    And as I lay against the sun,
    I thought of you and me
    And cried: "My love, the work is done,
    Come here, my love, and see!"
