St. Joseph of Arimathea
Almighty, everlasting God, Who didst entrust Thy most blessed servant, Joseph, to take down the lifeless body of Thine Only-Begotten Son from the Cross, and to perform the due offices of humanity, hasten, we pray Thee, that we, who devotedly recall His memory, may feel the help of Thine accustomed pity, through the same, Our Lord. Amen.
Walk upon England's mountains green?
And was the Holy Lamb of God
On England's pleasant pastures seen?
And did the Countenance Divine
Shine forth upon her clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded there
Among those dark Satanic mills?
- William BlakeThe Glastonbury Hymn
And did those feet in ancient timeWalk upon England's mountains green?
And was the Holy Lamb of God
On England's pleasant pastures seen?
And did the Countenance Divine
Shine forth upon her clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded there
Among those dark Satanic mills?
