Salkeld, from silent sitting, slow would rise,
And seem as with himself he did advise.
His first words would be soft, but might be heard;
He lack'd resolv'd, yet spoke as if he fear'd.
. . . [10 lines]
To heaven he lifts them with delightful notes,
And every soul to its first cause devotes.
And when he ceases still the musick rings,
And ev'ry breast its hallelujah sings.
