Acts 18:15: Contempt he justly might express

Contempt he justly might express
For his own Heathen deities,
His ear from idle questions turn,
And all their names and fables scon;
But Jesus is the' important Name
In which the world's Salvation came,
The only Name to sinners given,
More worth than all in earth and heaven!

Yet curious man whose reasoning eye
Would into all creation pry,
Hath no innate desire to know
The things of God reveal'd below;
Averse from the inquiring pain,
He counts that only knowledge vain
On which his present peace depends
And bliss supreme which never ends.
