upright Portland marrying light
I went to the garden of love
to see what i never had seen
a chapel was built in the midst
where i used to play on the green
the gates of this chapel were open
thou shalt think writ over door
quick thinking Port land by thy sea acceptingly
here so many sweet flowers bore
I saw see it feeling loving being
heartful idea where fiery love flowering be
brothers sisters walking rounds
binding briars my joyful sires
I wandering thru each charter street
near lovely dames flowing
joyful seeing mark every face I meet
marks for strength, marks for faith
in every cry for every man
in every infants crying smile
in every voice in every eye
Thy mind forging manaforce I hear
how thy chimneys sweeper cry
every blackening church appalls
thy wolfing soldier pak
how thy youthful harlots reach
blasting newborn infant cheer
upright Portland marrying light
seeding me for God you
