 | CHAPTER XIV. The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley |  |
1095.
[Nature's strife will never last]
One of them . . . drew a sword.
—xiv. 47.
Nature's strife will never last,
Soon her warmest zeal is pass'd;
While a soldier of the Lord,
Arm'd with neither shield nor sword,
Doth, like Christ, himself defend,
Calm and patient to the end,
80
Strives, resisting unto blood.
