Religion
Acts 19:37: The pagan deities of old
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Religion
The pagan deities of old
But lying demons were;
And modern gods of wood or gold
Their hellish birth declare;
We know their dark original,
Yet will we not presume
In bitterness of zeal to rail
At Satan, or at Rome.
