Ode 27[1]Original Source http://www.sacred-texts.com/bib/fbe/fbe221.htm
(i) The human body makes a cross when a man stands erect in prayer with arms outstretched.
1 I stretched out my hands and sanctified my Lord:
2 For the extension of my hands is His sign:
3 And my expansion is the upright tree [or cross].
