Impowered by Almighty aid,

The weakest means have converts made.
O fee this heedlefs, fluttering thing!
"Beware!" is written on its wing!
Wantonly sporting o'er the flame,
Say, is not Folly its true name?
Behold it, rushing through the fire,
A victim to felf-will, expire!
Confum'd, it now a type appears
Of the loft finner's ftifled fears!
"Tis thus, he, on deftruction's brink,
Enflav'd by pleasure, will not think ..
Thus, he, a vicious life, will chufe,
Tho' fure, his future heav'n, to lofe!
Thus, fporting with his misery,
He plunges in eternity!

But oh my fimile here fails!
Man's folly, o'er the moth's prevails!
The moth's annihilating doom,
Precludes a weight of woes to come;
While, o'er the finner's guilty foul,
Avenging ire must ever roll.

Who can understand his errors? Pfm. xix. 12.

OF

H! if our thoughts in heav'n are heard ;
'Ere form'd, if our defires are known;

If ill, committed,-good, deferr'd,

Are obvious to the Holy One!

How oft we err, how oft offend,
Can we, e'en faintly, comprehend ?

Whate'er we think, or do, or fay,

To build on, proves a fandy ground, And, must be, in the trying day,

Weigh'd in the balance, wanting found.

By thy foul-purifying blood,

Cleanfe me, from unknown faults, my God.
END OF THE XVth. VOLUME.
