Numbers 24:20: Amalek was the first of the nations, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Too well that Amalck I know
Who still maintains the war within,
Thy people's first and sorest foe:
But Thou, O Christ, shalt end my sin,
Destroy my nature's enmity.
And reign, for ever reign in me.
