AFRICA.
Though Hippo's Sainted-Bishop AugustineLike a bright Lamp in Tunis once did shine;
In Ægipt, by St Mark, although were sown
The early seeds of true Religion,
Though Æthiopia's Eunuch did proclaime
The Lamb whom he mis-tooke till Phillip came;
All's now erased, and a man may say
Nothing but error spreads in Africa.
