The Apostle of the Gentiles; both prepared

To suffer pains with heathen scorn and hate

Inflicted;—blessed Men, for so to Heaven

They follow their dear Lord!

Time flows—nor winds, 315

Nor stagnates, nor precipitates his course,

But many a benefit borne upon his breast

For human-kind sinks out of sight, is gone,

No one knows how; nor seldom is put forth

An angry arm that snatches good away, 320
