This is a sequel to the poem of last month, drawing themes from the process of a true marriage between a godly man and a godly woman.
Her garments now are changed From black to white ;
From crimson to pure white,
For it is ceremony time, the marriage,
The union, the bond, the soon consummation.
She is ready, her body to give completely to Jesus, her Lover.
It is the time of marrying, the gluing.
She comes to the water for dipping of baptism
With witnesses surrounding.
To the world and them, she is saying,
This day I am declaring that Jesus I am marrying.
