Religion
Acts 21:33: Then the chief captain came near, and, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Religion
Concern'd for justice, not for him,
Heathens may oft a saint redeem,
Restrain the cruel foes of peace,
And save him in his last distress:
The earth doth then the woman aid,
The' Almighty's mandate is obey'd.
And all the subject creatures join
To' accomplish His unknown design.
