That in the hurries of that crowded Road,
That in the hurries of that crouded Road,
They find small leisure to attend their God;
They find small leasure to attend their God;
Preferring filthy Gain, and ill-got Wealth,
Before the means of their Eternal Health.
Some that in words respect me, I behold
In that sad posture, betwixt hot and cold.
