And jewel hangs at shepherd's nose,
We can abide1 life's pelting2 storm,
That makes our limbs quake, if our hearts be warm.
Whilst Virtue3 is our walking-staff,
And Truth a lantern to our path,
We can abide life's pelting storm,
That makes our limbs quake, if our hearts be warm.
Blow, boisterous4 wind, stern winter frown,
Innocence5 is a winter's gown.
So clad, we'll abide life's pelting storm,
That makes our limbs quake, if our hearts be warm.
