[A Pharisee the law defends]
The Pharisees said unto Him, . . . Why do they, &c.
—ii. 24.
A
Pharisee the law defends,
Whose end and spirit he o'erthrows,
Boldly the judgment-seat ascends,
Censures, rebukes, on all bestows,
Sets himself up as judge supreme,
And all must give account to him.
Whose end and spirit he o'erthrows,
Boldly the judgment-seat ascends,
Censures, rebukes, on all bestows,
Sets himself up as judge supreme,
And all must give account to him.
Full of himself, and swollen with pride,
All sects, except his own, he blames:
With confidence he dares decide,
O'er others the dominion claims.
He adds their followers to his own,
And reigns o'er all the church alone.
All sects, except his own, he blames:
