Religion
Proverbs 1:10: The world on every side entice
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
The world on every side entice,
But do not thou consent.
Resolved to shun the paths of vice,
And 'scape the punishment:
Renounce the vile, abandon'd race.
From Satan's factors flee,
And let them go to their own place.
Without thy company.
