[Intentions, hearts to God are known]

With what measure ye mete, it shall be measured, &c. —vii. 2.

Intentions, hearts to God are known,
The Judge that always judges right:
Usurp not then His awful throne
To brand the secret hypocrite;
Or God in righteousness extreme
To mark what thou hast done amiss,
Shall thee with hypocrites condemn
To Tophet's bottomless abyss.
