[When superior pastors show]

And the saying pleased the whole multitude. —vi. 5.

When superior pastors show
Their humble zeal and love,
In the' apostles' footsteps go,
The church their deed approve:
When of worldly honours proud
Their state and grandeur they maintain,
Irksome both to man and God
The lordly tyrants reign.
