Acts 24:18: Certain Jezos from Asia 'found me purified, &c

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)

Religion

How does he break the law of God,
Or stain the house of holiness,
In keeping of that law employ'd,
And reverencing that sacred place?
These are the facts on which they found
Their charge of gross impiety;
For when pure malice is the ground,
Falsehood the only proof can be.
