We have one God alone
In heaven above sits on His
throne.
What are they which are but two?
Two testaments, the old and new,
We do
acknowledge to be true.
What are they which are but three?
Three persons in the
Trinity
Which make one God in unity.
What are they which are but four
Four sweet
Evangelists there are,
Christ's birth, life, death which do declare.
What are they
which are but five?
Five senses, like five kings, maintain
In every man a several
reign.
What are they which are but six?
Six days to labor is not wrong,
For God
himself did work so long.
What are they which are but seven?
Seven liberal arts hath
God sent down
With divine skill man's soul to crown.
What are they which are but
eight?
Eight Beatitudes are there given
Use them right and go to heaven.
What are
they which are but nine?
Nine Muses, like the heaven's nine spheres,
With sacred tunes
entice our ears.
What are they which are but ten?
Ten statutes God to Moses
gave
Which, kept or broke, do spill or save.
What are they which are but
eleven?
Eleven thousand virgins did partake
And suffered death for Jesus'
sake.
What are they which are but twelve?
Twelve are attending on God's son;
Twelve
make our creed. The Dial's done. | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
