Hands off, wicked and profane wretches!
by Thomas White
"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those
who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."
For good! Yes; but it is only to those that are good.
Hands off, wicked and profane wretches!
You have no part nor lot in these heavenly consolations.
Away, base swine, to your sties, to your muck and mire!
These pearls are not for you.
Out, you dogs, to the garbage that lies upon the dunghill!
