And trample on thy written Will?

That Liar old, and murd'rous Fiend,

Who tells them, "They at last shall live;" Extinguishes th' eternal Fire,

And makes the deathlefs Worm expire.*

Can all this Gloom of Hell difperfe?
JESUS, the FATHER'S Glory, fhine,
To teach our dark'ned Universe,
In every new born Soul to prove,
That Thou art GOD, and GOD is LOVE!+
