[Who after the first Christians tread]

There were many lights in the upper chamber, &c. —xx. 8.

Who after the first Christians tread,
Will all the works of darkness shun,
“In secret have we nothing said,
In secret have we nothing done,”
But walk as children of the light,
Unblamable in open sight.
Yet heathens still by Satan taught
Repeat the old exploded tale,
Crimes in our midnight meetings wrought,
Horrible mysteries of hell,
Reason's reproach and nature's shame,
Fit only for themselves to name!
