[That envious sect and most confined]

Remember the children of Edom, O Lord, &c. —cxxxvii. 7.

That envious sect and most confined,
Who triumph'd in our evil day,
Call their malicious pride to mind,
Take their malicious pride away.
The men of arrogance reprove,
The church, the brethren, and the bride,
Their Babel-battlements remove,
And take them humbled—to Thy side.
