Acts 19:21: After these things were ended, Paul purposed, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Lover of souls he cannot rest,
In Ephcsus already won
In Asia for his Lord possess'd,
But as he nothing yet had done
To Europe he his line extends,
And then to earth's remotest ends.
No conqueror or hero can
Equal his magnanimity
Whose heart in love to God and man
Enlarged and boundless as the sea,
Its all on every soul bestows,
And the whole universe o'erflows!
