[Wouldst Thou for fifty righteous men]
I will not destroy it for ten's sake.
—xviii. 32.
Wouldst Thou for fifty righteous men,
For ten, the wicked city spare,
And shall ten thousand plead in vain,
And mention Jesus in their prayer?
Thou, Lord, in answer to the just,
Hast long deferr'd Britannia's doom,
And praying on, we humbly trust
The threaten'd curse shall never come.
