[The Spirit had to them foreshown]
The disciples...said to Paul through the, &c.
—xxi. 4.
The Spirit had to them foreshown
The' afflictions waiting for their friend,
They counsell'd him the cross to shun,
Nor to the bloody city ascend;
But partly miss'd the Spirit's mind,
Nor saw the whole by heaven design'd.
The' afflictions waiting for their friend,
They counsell'd him the cross to shun,
Nor to the bloody city ascend;
But partly miss'd the Spirit's mind,
Nor saw the whole by heaven design'd.
Jesus the previous knowledge gives,
And thus His confessor prepares;
His confessor the cross receives,
By faith's anticipating prayers
His one oblation multiplies,
And daily for his Saviour dies.
And thus His confessor prepares;
