(\'Take up thy cross, the Saviour said\')
Matthew 7 v.12-14
*********
Therefore all things whatever you
Would that people would do to you
So do to them, this golden rule
Summarises law, [and] prophets all
Enter you in at the strait gte
It narrow be, this contemplate
For wide is the gate, broad the way
Therein path to destruction lays
But many do go in that gate
Because narrow gate it is strait
With difficulties, confinements
Yet be way to true contentments
And this strait gate does to life lead
Though there few that find it, it heed
Yet pursuing this way, Christ He
With us, and the Life, Truth, Way be
