[Marriage was by God design'd]

How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt, &c. —v. 9.

Marriage was by God design'd
That every happy two
Might in closest union join'd
Their heavenly Lord pursue;
Holier through each other prove,
And hand in hand with joy go on
To the highest feast of love,
The Lamb's eternal throne.
How do you, alas, profane
The solemn mystery,
You who worse than meet in vain,
And but in sin agree!
Join'd in every wicked deed
Ye thus your mutual ruin seal,
Hand in hand go on, and lead
Each other down to hell.
