Religion
Judges 16: Ah, woe is me, by lust enticed
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Ah, woe is me, by lust enticed!
The Philistines their foe have found.
Dreaded of late, but now despised,
A feeble slave, in prison bound.
Ruled by my haughty tyrant's will,
Forsaken by my angry Lord,
Compell'd I grind at Satan's mill,
And serve the sins I once abhorr'd.
