From here<\/a>:Lord, who createdst man in wealth and store,
\n Though foolishly he lost the same,
\n Decaying more and more,
\n Till he became
\n Most poore:
\n With thee
\n O let me rise
\n As larks, harmoniously,
\n And sing this day thy victories:
\nThen shall the fall further the flight in me.<\/p>\n

My tender age in sorrow did beginne
\n And still with sicknesses and shame.
\n Thou didst so punish sinne,
\n That I became
\n Most thinne.
\n With thee
\n Let me combine,
\n And feel thy victorie:
\n For, if I imp my wing on thine,
\nAffliction shall advance the flight in me.<\/p>\n

\n

"Tell us, Mary: say what thou didst see upon the way.
The tomb the Living did enclose;
I saw Christ's glory as he rose!" (from the Easter Sequence)#EasterAtHome<\/a>
