الصفحة 82 - Presume thy bolts to throw, And deal damnation round the land On each I judge thy foe. If I am right, thy grace impart, Still in the right to stay; If I am wrong, oh teach my heart To find that better way...

On cares like these, if length of days attend, May Heaven, to bless those days, preserve my friend!
