two sons of Iebedee, and began to be sorrow
| ,ul and very heavy.
3s Then saith he unto them, My soul is ex-
ceedingly sorrowful even unto death tarry
ye here, and watch with me.
80 And he went a little farther and fell on
his face and prayed, saying, o, my Father, il
it be possible, let this cup pass from me: new
ertheless not as will, but as thou wilt.
40 And he cometh unto the disciples, and
findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter,
What could ye not watch vito me one hour?

the flesh is weak.

LESSON HYMN. L. NJ.
'Tis midnight and on Olives brow
The star is dimmed that lately shone:
'Tis midnight in the garden, now,
The suffering Saviours prays alone.
'Tis midnight and from all removed,
The Savlour1wrestles lone with fears;
Fen that disciple whom he loved
Heeds not his Masters grief and tears.
'Tis midnight; and for others guilt
The man of sorrows weeps i'm blood;
Yet he that hath in anguish knelt
Is not forsaken by his God.
