The Happiness of the Blessed considered as to the Particulars of their State | ||
LXXXI. THE SUDDEN DEATH.
He was an alien from the House of God!Admonish'd oft, his grief he oft exprest,
And better things for time to come profest,
For time to come he hoped for! yet untrod
The church-ward path still left he, till the rod
Smote him, what time amid the drunken feast
His unnerv'd throat the unswallow'd morsel prest,
And now he lies beneath the church yard sod!
What's now his place, and whither he is gone,
Who rashly dares pronounce? But who can hear
His fate, nor breathe a wish that he had known
To tread with reverence and holy fear
God's courts, or ere before God's judgment throne
The accusing Angel bade his soul appear?
