Religion
Quatrain 193
Translated by E. H. Whinfield (1883) · From The Quatrains (Whinfield)
Religion
They say, when the last trump shall sound its knell,
Our Friend will sternly judge, and doom to hell.
Can aught but good from perfect goodness come?
Compose your trembling hearts, 'twill all be well.
