2. Wherefore of Judgment I shall now Inform you, what I may; That you may see what 'tis, and how 'Twill be with Men that Day.
3. This World it hath a time to stand, Which time, when ended, then Will issue Judgment out of hand Upon all sorts of Men.
4. The Judge we find, in Gods Record, The Son of Man, for he By God's appointment is made Lord, And Judge of all that be;
5. Wherefore this Son of man shall come At last, to Count withal; And unto them shall give just doom, Whether they stand or fall.
6. Behold ye now the Majesty And State that shall attend This Lord, this Judge, and Justice high, When he doth now descend.
