“Go and Sin no more.” John 8th Chap.

Woman! if e'er by wayward passions sway'd,
Thy heart beguil'd, to folly stoop;
If e'er through guilt, in pleasing smiles array'd,
Thy chasten'd soul in sorrow droop;
Thy mournful crime in tears repentant steep,
Dispel the griefs that wound thee sore;
Then go, on Him repose, who e'er could weep,
And bids thee “go, and sin no more.”
