THE PILGRIM . Gentle Pilgrim , fell me why Dost thou fold thine arms and sigh ; And wistful cast thine eyes around : Whither , Pilgrim , art thou bound ?
The road to Zion ' gates I seek , If thou the way canst shew , O , speak * Keep yon right-hand path with care , Though crags obstruct and hrambles tear ; You just discern a narrow track . Enter there , and turn not back .
Say where that pleasant path-way leads , Winding down yon flowery meads ; Song and dance the way beguiles , Every face is drest in smiles . Shun with care that flowery way , 'Twill lead thee , Pilgrim , far astray .
Guide or counsel do I need r Pilgrim , he who runs may read . Is the way that I must keep Crossed by waters wide and deep ? Did it lead thro floods and fire , Thou mast not stop—thou must not tire .
Till I have my journey past , Tell me , will the day-light last ? Will the sky be bright and clear Till the evening shades appear ?
Tho' the sun now rides so high , Clouds may veil the evening sky : Fast sinks the sun , fast wears the day , Thou must not stop—thou mustnot stay , God speed thee , Pilgrim , on thy way .
