behold how good

Behold, how good a thing it is,

and how becoming well.

Together such as brethren are

in unity to dwell!




Like precious ointment on the head,

that down the beard did flow,

even Aaron’s beard, and to the skirts

did of his garments go.




As Hermon’s dew, the dew that doth

on Sion’ hills descend:

for there the blessing God commands,

life that shall never end. ...
