[Our zeal in men's esteem]

Some . . . had indignation, . . . and said, Why, &c. —xiv. 4.

Our zeal in men's esteem
May pass for indiscreet;
Suffice if what we do for Him
Our Lord's acceptance meet:
If He our gift receive,
Though more than life it cost,
We know whate'er to Christ we give
It never can be lost.
