O how far remov'd,
Predestination! is thy foot from such
As see not the First Cause entire: and ye,
O mortal men! be wary how ye judge:
For we, who see the Maker, know not yet
The number of the chosen; and esteem
Such scantiness of knowledge our delight:
For all our good is, in that primal good,
Concentrate; and God's will and ours are one.

You'll be damn'd if you don't.
Lorenzo Dow—Chain (Definition of CahrinAnd after hearing what our Church can say,
If still our reason runs another way,

For points obscure are of small use to learn,
But common quiet is mankind's concern.

| text = <poem>Shall I ask the brave soldier, who fights by my
side
In the cause of mankind, if our creeds agree?
Shall I give up the friend I have valued and
tried,
If he kneel not before the same altar with me?
From the heretic girl of my soul should I fly,
To seek somewhere else a more orthodox kiss?
No! perish the hearts, and the laws that try
Truth, valour, or love, by a standard like this!

Wide as the waters be.

As thou these ashes, little brook! will bear
Into the Avon, Avon to the tide
Of Severn, Severn to the narrow seas,
Into main ocean they, this deed accurst,
An emblem yields to friends and enemies
How the bold teacher's doctrine, sanctified
By truth, shall spread throughout the world dispersed.
