CHAPTER 13th.
The Life and Poetical Works of James Woodhouse |  |
Not only Crispin felt this lot forlorn,
In suffering, for his Saviour, hate, and scorn,
But each Believer liv'd alike abhorr'd,
Who lov'd and reverenc'd his redeeming Lord—
Those most who cherish'd most that glorious Guest,
And copied His beloved example best!
And why? when Lives, oppos'd, Mankind compares,
The Christian's heavenly Conduct libels Theirs!
In suffering, for his Saviour, hate, and scorn,
But each Believer liv'd alike abhorr'd,
Who lov'd and reverenc'd his redeeming Lord—
Those most who cherish'd most that glorious Guest,
And copied His beloved example best!
And why? when Lives, oppos'd, Mankind compares,
The Christian's heavenly Conduct libels Theirs!
