[From men who harden their own hearts]

But when divers were hardened, and believed not, &c. —xix. 9.

From men who harden their own hearts
And openly the way blaspheme,
A minister of Christ departs,
In pity and true love to them
Lest they should more obdurate be,
Farther provoke the Lord Most-high,
And fill up their iniquity,
And fighting with their Maker, die.
