Matthew 27:27: Then the soldiers... took Jeszis
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Our meek, pacific Prince adore,
Abandon'd to the soldiers' power,
A Lamb with leopards join'd;
That outraged by the men of war.
His church their violences may bear.
And peace in Jesus find.
