CHAPTER XIV. The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley | ||
1101.
[The saint who of his grace presumes]
Thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth.
—xiv. 67.
The saint who of his grace presumes,
Nor yet his own great weakness knows,
A woman's word or look o'ercomes,
A pillar of the church o'erthrows.
And Peter's sin proclaims to all
That pride precedes a certain fall.
