Our Lord into his Garden comes,
Well pleas’d to smell our poor Perfumes,
And calls us to a feast divine,
Sweeter than honey, milk or wine.
Eat of the Tree of Life, my Friends,
The Blessings that my Father sends;
Your Taste shall all my dainties prove,
And drink abundance of my Love.
Isaac Watts (1674-1748), Hymn 74, Book 1.
