``Come, O Thou that hast the seven stars in Thy right hand,
appoint Thy chosen priests according to their order and courses
of old, to minister before Thee, and duly to dress and pour out
the consecrated oil into Thy holy and ever burning lamps.
Thou hast sent out the spirit of prayer upon Thy servants over
all the earth to this effect, and stored up their voices as the
sound of many waters about Thy throne. . . . O perfect
and accomplish Thy glorious acts; for men may leave their
works unfinished, but Thou art a God; Thy nature is perfection.
. . . The times and seasons pass along under Thy
feet, to go and come at Thy bidding; and as Thou didst
dignify our fathers' days with many revelations, above all their
foregoing ages since Thou tookest the flesh, so Thou canst
vouchsafe to us, though unworthy, as large a portion of Thy
Spirit as Thou pleasest; for who shall prejudice Thy all-governing
will? Seeing the power of Thy grace is not passed
away with the primitive times, as fond and faithless men
imagine, but Thy kingdom is now at hand, and Thou standing
at the door, come forth out of Thy royal chambers, O Prince
of all the kings of the earth; put on the visible robes of Thy
imperial majesty, take up that unlimited sceptre which Thy Almighty
Father hath bequeathed Thee; for now the voice of
Thy bride calls Thee, and all creatures sigh to be renewed.''[112]
[112] Milton, ``Prose Works.''
