[The modern Sadducees]
The Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, &c.
—xxiii. 8.
The modern Sadducees
Angels and spirits disown,
Deists no after state confess,
No God to man made known;
As when their only care
This present life were o'er,
Their brutal souls would melt in air,
And die to live no more.

The Pharisees maintain
With zealous fury fill'd
'Gainst all your infidels profane
The Christian truths reveal'd:
Yet orthodox at most
In notions who confide
They may of fewer errors boast,
And more abundant pride.
