Religion
Exodus 12:13: The blood shall be to you for a token, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Let the angel of the Lord
His awful charge fulfil,
Let His pestilential sword
The first-born victims kill;
Safe in snares and deaths we dwell.
Protected by that crimson sign.
From the rage of earth and hell.
And from the wrath Divine.
