24.

The following is a portion of Neale's translation (_Mediaeval Hymns_, pp. 35-36):

Mine be Sion's habitation, Sion, David's calm foundation: Built by him, light's source immortal,-- To whose streets the cross is portal: In this city, uninvaded Peace,--spring endless, light unfaded: Endless breath of flowerets vernal, Festal melody eternal.

Home, no change nor loss that fearest, From afar my soul thou cheerest: Thee it seeketh, thee requireth, Thee affecteth, thee desireth.
