For what offends our judgment! 'T is your work,

Performed your way: not work delivered you

Intact, intact producible in turn.

Everywhere have you altered old to new—

Your will, your warrant: therefore, work must stand

Or stumble by intrinsic worth. What worth?

Its aim and object! Peace you advocate,

And war would fain abolish from the land:

Support religion, lash irreverence,

Yet laughingly administer rebuke
