The PILGRIMAGE . Written by Sir Walter Raleigh , Knight , After his CONDEMNATION , The Day before his Death . GIve me my Scollap-Shell of Quiet , My Staff of Faith to lean upon ; My Scrip of Joy , Immortal Diet , My Bottle of Salvation ; My Gown of Glory , Hopes True Gage : And thus I 'll go my Pilgrimage . Blood must be my Body's Balm , For here no other Balm is given ; Whilst my Soul , like a quiet Palm , Travels to the Land of Heaven , And there I 'll kiss the Bowl of Bliss , And drink m'Eternal Fill on e v'ry milky Hill . My Soul may be a thirst before ; But after , it shall ne'er thirst more . And in this happy Blissful Way More Painful Pilgrims I shall see , Which have put off their Rags of Clay , And go Apparell'd Fresh , like me : I 'll bring them first to quench their Thirst To the Pure Wells where Sweetness dwells ; And then to Taste of Nectar-Suckets , Drawn up by Saints in Cristal Buckets . And when our Bottles , and all We , Are fill'd with Immortality , The Holy Pathes of Heav'n we 'll Travel , With Rubies strew'd as thick as Gravel ; Cielings of Di'monds , Saphire-Floors , High Walls of Corral , Pearly-Bow'rs . And then to Heav'ns Bribeless Hall , Where no Corrupted Voices bawl ; No Conscience molded into Gold ; No Forg'd Accuser Bought nor Sold ; No Cause Deferr'd , no vain-spent Journey : For CHRIST Himself 's the Kings Attorney , Who Pleads for All , without Degrees ; For He hath Angels , but no Fees . And when the Grand Twelve-Million Jury Of all my Sins , shall , in a Fury , Against my Soul Black Verdict give ; Christ pleads His Death , and I shall Live . Great Counsellor ! Plead Thou my Cause ; In Thy Proceedings can be found no Flaws ; Thou won'st Salvation as an Alms , Not by the Lawyers Bribed Palms . And this shall be my Eternal Plea , To Him that made Heav'n , Earth , and Sea , That Since my Flesh must Die so soon , And want a Head to Dine next Noon ; Even at the Stroke when my Veins spread , Set on my Soul an Everlasting Head . Then am I Ready , like a Palmer fit , To Tread those Paths that I before have Writ .
