[Is there benevolence in hell?]
Send him to my father's house: for I, &c.
—xvi. 27, 28.
Is there benevolence in hell?
Or can the damn'd compassion feel
At their associates' doom?
No: but an epicure below
May dread a huge increase of woe
When his associates come.

At their associates' doom?
No: but an epicure below
May dread a huge increase of woe
When his associates come.
How will he their reproaches bear,
Who spread his table for a snare,
Taught them to scorn the poor,
Made them in all his crimes partake,
And left them all his goods to make
Their swift damnation sure?
