65 " THE POWERS THAT BE. " Some men, lest interest be hurt, The Scriptures fearfully pervert ; And their atrocities gild o'er, Beneath, above, beliind, before, With Closes, prophecies, and psalms, Unhurt mth conscientious qualms ! This glaring truth before our eyes Example daily verifies ; For, when a Briton strives in vain To snap his fellows' gaUing chain, He on the rebel hst appears, And ever and anon liis ears Are stunn'd with, " Disaffected clod, How dare you vex that type of God, Oiu- gra...cious King ? Did not Saint Paul, The most unyielding saint of all, Admonish and exhort that we Be subject to the powers that be, — For crowns and thrones and powers are given. To none but those ordained of heaven !" Such is the Scripture-twisting guise WMch raises dust i:i people's eyes ; — But did the saint, whose words they use. Bend to the unbeheving Jews ? Did he, afraid of losing hfe, Give up the world-o'erconiing strife ; — No, at Ills risen God's command, He preach'd the cross in every land, He spurn'd the tyrant Nero's power.
