Or else they only play the hypocrite,
And only say they do believe aright;
But in their hearts they faucily defy
The power and justice of a Deity.

Of all the three then, our laft fpark is worst, And confequently will be most accurst,

For him the flames of hell, if it can be,

Shall ftill be rais'd to a more quick degree,
As a reward for his hypocrify.

Thus have the Atheists been distinctly try'd: ́
The first for rafhnefs, impudence and pride,
For his abuse of nature's facred laws,

And holding off when reason prov'd the cause.
The Second for his want of wit to chuse
The safest way, the dangerous refuse.

The third, for his profane hypocrify,
And boldly telling a religious lie.

The tryal done, I have no more to say,

Their next appeal is on the judgment-day; When to their shame God will his power exert,

And in their ruin will himself assert.

GLORY BE TO GOD.
