 O sweeter than the Marriage-feast,
 * 'Tis sweeter far to me

To walk together to the Kirk
 * With a goodly company.

To walk together to the Kirk
 * And all together pray,

While each to his great father bends, Old men, and babes, and loving friends,
 * And Youths, and Maidens gay.

Farewell, farewell! but this I tell
 * To thee, thou wedding-guest!

He prayeth well who
 * Both man and bird and beast.

He prayeth best who loveth best,
 * All things both great and small:

For the dear God, who loveth us,
 * He made and loveth all.
