"We loathe this light, this airy bread; "We must have flesh to taste." 5 "Ye shall have flesh to please your lust," The Lord in wrath reply'd, And sent them quails like sand or dust, Heap'd up on every side. 6 He gave them all their own desire; And greedy as they fed, His vengeance burnt with secret fire, And smote the rebels dead. 7 When some were slain the rest return'd And sought the Lord with tears; Under the rod they fear'd and mourn'd, But soon forgot their fears. 8 Oft he chastis'd, and still forgave, 'Till, by his gracious hand The nation he resolv'd to save Possess'd the promis'd land.
