[Learning secular, profane]
Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the, &c.

Learning secular, profane,
To use if God intends,
Pestilent no more, or vain,
It serves the noblest ends;
Wrests the weapons from their hands
Who learnedly the truth oppose,
Puts to flight the' Egyptian bands,
And quells the church's foes.

Lord, the figure we look through,
The truth substantial see,
All the stores of wisdom true
Are treasured up in Thee:
Powerful all Thy doctrines are,
Thy Spirit speaks in every word,
All Thy works the hand declare
Of an Almighty Lord.
