There 's nothing the Devil objects to so much,

So speedily flies from, as one of those purged

Of his presence, the angels who erst formed his train—

His, their emperor. Choose one of such!

"Get fashioned his likeness and set him on high

At back of the breach thus adroitly filled up:

Display him as guard of two scutcheons, thy arms:

I warrant no devil attempts to get by

And disturb thee so guarded. Eat, drink, dine, and sup,

In thy rectitude, safe from alarms!"
