2 Kings 5:19: Go in peace
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
What saith a younger prophet's zeal?
Not "go in peace" but " go to hell! ''
"And would an hoary seer allow
That Naaman should to Rinimon bow?"
No; but he did his weakness spare,
Glad that his convert went so far,
The evil saw, the good confess'd.
And trusted God to do the rest.
