The Little Seraph ‎#14

14. Jesus of Nazareth

1 What means this eager, anxious throng,
Which moves with busy haste along;
These wondrous gath'rings day by day?
What means this strange commotion, say?
In accents hush'd, the throng reply:
"Jesus of Nazareth passeth by;"
In accents hushed, the throng reply:
"Jesus of Nazareth passeth by."
