Veil, Lord, Mine Eyes Till She Be Past,
When Folly Tempts My Sight;
Keep Thou My Palate And My Taste
From Gluttonous Delight.
Stop Thou Mine Ear From Sirens’ Songs,
My Tongue From Lies Restrain;
Withhold My Hands From Doing Wrongs,
My Feet From Courses Vain.
Teach, Likewise, Every Other Sense
To Act An Honest Part,
But Chiefly Settle Innocence
And Pureness In My Heart;
So Naught Without Me Or Within,
Shall Work An Ill Effect,
By Tempting Me To Act A Sin,
Or Virtues To Neglect.
