Tu locus unicus, Illeque coelicus Es paradisus: Non ibi lacryma, Sed placidissima Gaudia, risus. Thou only mansion bright, Full of supreme delight, Thou art preparing. There shall all tears be dry, There is serenest joy, All shall be sharing.

Eountain of love alone, Thou hast the living stone, Elect and precious. Est tibi laurea, Dos datur aurea, Sponsa decora, Primaque Principis Oscula suscipis, Inspicis ora.

There saints find full employ, Songs of triumphant joy Ever upraising. They who were most beloved, They who were tried and proved, Together praising. PART II.
