English poem
Clxxx. [147]
by Michael Wigglesworth (1631–1705)
“You sinners are, and such a share as sinners, may expect; Such you shall have, for I do save none but mine own Elect. Yet to compare your sin with their who liv’d a longer time, I do confess yours is much less, though every sin’s a crime.
The wicked all convinced and put to silence.
