[Worldly men whom interest parts]

The same day Pilate and Herod were, &c. —xxiii. 12.

Worldly men whom interest parts
By that made friends again,
Join their wicked hands and hearts
With Satan and his train;
Widest opposites unite
Kings, soldiers, priests, in this agree
All against the life to fight
Of genuine piety.
