[Servants of Christ, your rule is plain]

With such an one no not to eat. —v. 11.

Servants of Christ, your rule is plain;
Who bears the hallow'd name in vain,
And claims the right of brotherhood,
Out of your fellowship exclude;
Avoid, (but hate not, or despise,)
The slave of lust, and avarice,
And intimate in no degree,
Ye Christians, with a railer be.
