‘Sleep ye on now, and take your rest:”” 
Were words which Mountain chose 5 
Seeing he was to be dismiss’d, 
For breaking his repose. 
But lo! his pupil's last discourse, 
Could not keep him awake, 
Nor could our Saviour’s striking words 
Him from his slumbers shake. 
Next morning Mountain took his leave, 
And homewards bent his way; 
He little thought what was in storey 
Against some future day. 
The King had heard of the affair, 
And straight for Mountain sent, 
On giving him a Bishop’s See 
His Majesty was bent. 
He wonder’d much what it could mean, 
Yet up to court he came ; 
‘¢ Well, Mountain,” (said the worthy King,) 
*¢ ve heard much of thy fame. 
#¢ And as a Bishop is deceas’d, 
** T straightway sent for thee, 
$4 But fearalas! thou art not fit, 
6 To fill that vacant See.’’ 
Then Mountain did the King address, 
‘< Oh sov’reign, bast thou faith?” 
“€ ¥ hope so; was the King’s reply : 
“¢ The King hopes he has faith.’ 
«¢ But hast thou faith ?” ** Yes I believe 
I have :” the King replied ; 
This did not answer Mountain’s end, 
«© The King believes ;” and sigh’d, 
Yet once again did Mountain ask, 
‘© Say oh King, hast thou faith ?” 
He paus’d: but straight he made reply ; 
‘* Yes, Mountain, I have faith.” 
$* Well then, (said Mountain,) if indeedy 
*s Thou dost possess true faith, 
*¢ Tho? asa grain of mustard seedy 
“ Hear what the Scripture saith. 
‘¢ This Mountain, (pointing to himself,)} 
*¢ At thy request made known, 
6 Shall be remov’d to yonder See,” 
No sooner said than done. 
(Here by the bye, Iwould observe, 
How wrong it is to make, 
A jest-bouk of God’s holy word ; 
From whence bon-mots to take.) 
This witty speech much pleas’d the King 
«¢ And so it shali,” he said ; 
He strait commanded, and they plac’d 
The mitre on his head. 
¢* Now let us sing, long live the King ? 
** And Mountain, long live he! 
«¢ And when he next appears at Court 3 
«6 May I be there to see.” .
