That any malefactor I would smite

With God's allowance, God himself will spare

Presumably. No scapegrace? Then, rejoice

Thou snatch-grace safe in Syria!"

Man lumps his kind i' the mass: God singles thence

Unit by unit. Thou and God exist—

So think!—for certain: think the mass—mankind—

Disparts, disperses, leaves thyself alone!
