for Christ s sake, search, examine, try, How you conduct, in each and all Respects; That in Distress and sore Calamity You may not have to wail for your Neglects. 34 Neglects of Duty, in your several Trusts Or forward Actions, void of Holy Fear; Who rules for God, and pleasing to him, must Still in his Counsel act, and persevere As bright Examples, prudent, humble, just: A LITTLE LOOKING-GLASS 77 35 To Evil doers, 2 Punishment and Terror; But for Well-doing, Praise, and due Protection; Impartia...l Judgment, still unmix d with Error, As actuated by Divine Direction: 36 For Wisdom s Fountain still is open wide, To all that seek it with a single Eye, And all such Seekers, Heaven s on their side, And will with Holy Wisdom dignify; 37 Wherein, as Princes under God, they d sway The ruling Scepter with an equal Hand; And in their Stations, each might help to stay The poisoning streams of Discord from the Land. 38 Such in their Country, are as Pillars stable, As upright Stakes, still steady, firm, and sure; And they in trying Seasons, would be able In Christian Meekness, Perils to endure.
