Mark 2:25, 26: Have ye never read what David did, &c

God in mercy to our race
Did all His laws ordain:
Precepts positive give place
To' ensure the good of man:
Every word from heaven reveal'd
Subservient to its end must prove,
Lose its binding force, and yield
To the great law of love.

When our neighbour's wants declare
Extremity of woe,
Taught by God, we nothing spare.
But freely all bestow:
God abandon'd in their need
The things reserved for Him alone.
Pitied those that wanted bread,
And fed them with His own.
4(32 Hyjuns on the Four Gospels.
