SUNDAY AT MATINS,

ℂ From the First Sunday after the Octave of the Epiphany, incluſive, up to Lent.

Primo dierum omnium.

FIRST Day of days! wherein arrayed
In light and beauty, Earth was made;
And life to give us, from the dead
Victorious our Creator ſped!

Let us with joyful hearts ariſe,
And chaſing ſlumber from our eyes,
Right early ſeek The Lord of Grace,
As erſt the Prophet ſought His Face;

That He may hearken to our prayer,
Stretch forth His arm with kindly care,
And every paſt offence forgiven,
Reſtore us to our homes in Heaven;
