Religion
Mark 14:21: Good were it for that man if he had, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)
Religion
Alas for him! whose teaching pride
Peoples the realms beneath,
And helps poor sinners to deride
The never-dying death!
Who madly mocks the endless pain,
And laughs his God to scorn —
Good were it for that wretched man,
If he had ne'er been born!
