On God's Omnipotence.
When Egypt's host God's chosen tribe pursued,
In crystal walls the admiring waters stood;
When through the dreary wastes they took their way,
The rocks relented, and poured forth a sea!
What limit can the Almighty goodness know,
Since seas can harden, and since rocks can flow?
