English poem
Clxxxi. [148]
by Michael Wigglesworth (1631–1705)
“A crime it is, therefore in bliss you may not hope to dwell; But unto you I shall allow The easiest room in Hell.“ The glorious King thus answering, they cease, and plead no longer; Their Consciences must needs confess his Reasons are the stronger.
Behold the formidable estate of all the ungodly as they stand hopeless and helpless before an impartial Judge, expecting their final Sentence.
