Pearl - Part 60

“Who knoweth to read the Book aright,
let him look in, and learn therefrom
how Jesus walk'd once on a time,
and folk their bairns press'd near to Him;
to touch their children they Him besought,
for hap and health that from Him came.
His disciples sternly bade them cease;
and at their words full many stay'd.
Then Jesus sweetly said to them:—
‘Not so; let children draw to Me;
for such is heaven's realm prepared.’
The innocent is aye saved by right.
