[Human events we should attend]

For before these days rose up Theudas, &c. —v. 36, 37.

Human events we should attend,
Their rise, their progress, and their end,
Review, compare, reflect;
The ways of Providence to learn,
The work of God from man's discern,
Religion from a sect.
God's work to ruin or prevent
Satan in every age has sent
His messengers before;
Yet when the true apostles rose,
Nor earth nor hell their mouth could close,
Or shut the gospel door.
