Not thus our infidels the' Eternal draw,—
A God all o'er, consummate, absolute,
Full-orb'd, in his whole round of rays complete:
They set at odds Heaven's jarring attributes,
And with one excellence another wound;
Maim Heaven's perfection, break its equal beams,
Bid Mercy triumph over—God himself,
Undeified by their opprobrious praise:
A God all mercy, is a God unjust.
A God all o'er, consummate, absolute,
Full-orb'd, in his whole round of rays complete:
They set at odds Heaven's jarring attributes,
And with one excellence another wound;
Maim Heaven's perfection, break its equal beams,
Bid Mercy triumph over—God himself,
Undeified by their opprobrious praise:
A God all mercy, is a God unjust.
