90                       FABER'S HYMNS.
Ungrowing and unfading, Its pure Essence doth It
keep, In the deepest of those depths where all are infinitely
deep; Unchanging and unchangeable as It hath ever been, As It was before that Human Heart was there by
angels seen, So is It at this very hour, so will It ever be, With that Human Heart within It, beating hot with love of me!
Myriad, myriad angels raise Happy hymns of wondering praise, Ever through eternal days, Before the Holy Trinity, One Undivided Three !
THE CREATION OF THE ANGELS.
In pulses deep of threefold Love, Self-hushed and self-possessed,
The mighty, unbeginning God Had lived in silent rest.
With His own greatness all alone
The sight of Self had been Beauty of beauties, joy of joys,
Before His eye serene.
