Entry CLXXXII

Friday, 19 September 1653

Behold the formidable estate of all the ungodly as they stand hopeless and helpless before an impartial Judge, expecting their final Sentence.

Today’s Scripture

Rev. 6:16, 17.

Thus all men’s pleas the Judge with ease
  doth answer and confute,
  Until that all, both great and small,
  are silencéd and mute.
Vain hopes are cropt, all mouths are stopt,
  sinners have naught to say,
  But that ’tis just and equal most
  they should be damn’d for aye.
