Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God.

Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.—James, iii. 5, 6, 8, 9, 10.

The man

In whom this spirit entered, was undone.

His tongue was set on fire of hell, his heart

Was black as death, his legs were faint with haste

To propagate the lie his soul had framed.

Pollok.

Sacred interpreter of human thought,

How few respect, or use thee as they ought!
