He said, The Spirits stood silent as he spake,
Whilst the whole Firmament around did shake.
Heav'n's immeasur'd space made loud reply,
Like Thunder ecch'oing from the distant Sky.
The mighty Shilo felt his Father's care,
(For Son and Father of like passions are.)
Their heav'nly minds in equal order run,
And what does move the Father, moves the Son.
The Son was Mercy, Love he only knew,
Wrath from his breast, as from an En'my, flew.
The melting God with pit'ing look surveys,
The world below, and man's unhaypy Race.
He rose, and nodding his illustrious head,
These words to his Almighty Father said:
