MEG!!!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow.
I have read that poem for 18 years and never knew that. Thank you. I'll add that to the description of the poem online.
Not having any bible background (raised Catholic), I always relied on the professors I worked with to know their bible and that one seems to have slipped through the crack. Again, thank you.
Henry did publish some poetry that was written by others, such as
Hiding Place by Rev. Jehoida Brewer (1752-1817) and
The IX ode of Horace from The Poetics of Scaliger.

I can look up any passage or chapter here and it includes many different translations.
I use this often to get the correct verse number.
I appreciate so much your posting of Livingston’s beautiful gift of love to his daughter!
