A people's anguish to the throne of God.

This is God's chosen Minister; this one

Shall lead his people in the righteous way

Towards the triumph.—Yet, 'tis not alone

A picture of the heart's desire for him,

A dream of what a minister must be;

Nay, for the Rabbis in their wisdom gazed

On Rabbi Isaac, Immi's noble son.
