IV. THE VOICE OF POETRY
http://www.britam.org/vision/koblerpart2.html#Voice
Extracts:
William Cowper in his Expostulation invested the Puritan identification of Israel and England with a new meaning.
Israel is represented as England's ideal example:

     What nation will you find, whose annals prove
    So rich an interest in Almighty love?
    '
Twas theirs alone to dive into the plan
     That truth and mercy had
reveal'd to man.

  In one of the most pathetic apostrophes in poetical literature, Cowper implores Israel to teach the nations of the world, above all England, the lesson of its own tragic experiences:

     Oh Israel! Of all nations most undone,
     Thy diadem displaced, thy
sceptre gone,
      Cry aloud, thou that
sittest in the dust,
      Cry to the proud, the cruel, the unjust!
     'Knock at the gates of nations, rouse their fears,
    Say wrath is coming, and the storm appears,
    But raise the shrillest cry in British ears!

The desire for the blend of Jerusalem with England inspired Blake to the famous lines:

                      England awake! Awake! Awake!
                     Jerusalem thy sister calls! 
                      Why wild those sleep the sleep of death
                    And close her from thy ancient walls?


The Hebrew Melodies must not be allowed to overshadow the similarly inspired Sacred Songs by Thomas Moore, Byron's friend and biographer, published in 1816. Moore, like Thomas Corbet an Irishman, succeeded in imparting a national note to the religious idea. His Advent of the Millennium is both a document of the Millenarian Revival and a song of a new restorationist generation:

Then, Judah, thou no more shalt mourn
Beneath the heathen's chain ;
Thy days of
splendour shall return,
And all be new again.

3. Brit-Am Commentary to Hosea 2 Upgraded
http://britam.org/hosea2.html

Hosia 2
Summary:
Judah is exhorted to recognize the Lost Ten Tribes as their kith and kin. The Righteous amongst the Ten Tribes are urged to remonstrate with their "Mother" meaning their community. We cannot diconnect ourselves from our peoples. Our "legitimacy" depends on their behavior as well as our own. The Lost Tribes will have enjoyed great wealth and material prosperity much of which will have been wasted due to idolatrous and ungodly practices. They will have worshipped the "baal". Baal worship in Ancient Times was indeed practiced throughout much of Western Europe. Britain was referred to as the "Honey Isle of Bel". The Israelites will be lured out into the "Wilderness" and there they shall be reformed and reconciled with the Almighty.
