When Tongues do falter, & your Eyestrings crack
When Tongues do faulter, & your Eyestrings crack
When stings of Horror do your Conscience rack,
When Hells Abyss sets ope its spacious Gate,
And Troops of Devils round about you wait,
When nought but Horror and Confusion seizes,
When nought but Horrour and Confusion seizes,
