and

And faith and noblest thought within their hearts;

And faith and noblest thought within their hearts;

Made of gold, brass, silver, and ivory,

Nor statues of dead gods of wood and stone

And all that empty-minded mortals will;

With water cleanse, and honor only Him

Who is immortal and who ever rules,

And then their parents; and above all men

And then their parents; and above all men

And they have not base intercourse with boys,

As do Phœnicians, Latins, and Egyptians

And spacious Greece, and nations many more

And spacious Greece, and nations many more

Of Persians and Galatians and all Asia,

Of Persians and Galatians and all Asia,

Groans, war, and pestilence and mournful woes;

Groans, war, and pestilence and mournful woes;

And worshiped idols made with hands, which things

Mortals themselves will cast down and for shame

And there shall come from Asia a great king,

A fiery eagle, who with foot and horse

And fill all things with evils; he will cast

The Egyptian kingdom down; and taking off

And then shall they before, the mighty God,

On the much-nourishing earth; and all the works

And then will God bestow great joy on men;

For land and trees and countless flocks of sheep

For land and trees and countless flocks of sheep

And the sweet honey, and white milk, and wheat,

And the sweet honey, and white milk, and wheat,

And the sweet honey, and white milk, and wheat,

Do not delay and loiter, but do thou,

Tossed to and fro, turn and propitiate God.

Tossed to and fro, turn and propitiate God.

And firstling lambs and goats, as times revolve.

And firstling lambs and goats, as times revolve.

The only God, and other there is none.

And honor justice and oppress no man.

And honor justice and oppress no man.

Of pestilence and conquered they shall meet

A fearful judgment, and king shall seize king

And wrest his land away, and nations bring

And wrest his land away, and nations bring

Ruin on nations and lords plunder tribes,

And chiefs all flee into another land,

And the land change its men, and foreign rule

And the land change its men, and foreign rule

Ravage all Hellas and drain the rich land.

Of its wealth, and to strife among themselves

Because of gold and silver they shall come--

And they shall all be without burial,

And vultures and wild beasts of earth shall spoil

And vultures and wild beasts of earth shall spoil

Their flesh; and when these things are brought to pass,

And all unsown shall it be and unplowed,

And all unsown shall it be and unplowed,

And shields and javelins and all sorts of arms;

And shields and javelins and all sorts of arms;

And shields and javelins and all sorts of arms;

And then shall God send from the East a king,

And he will not by his own counsels do

Of God the mighty. And with goodly wealth,

With gold and silver and purple ornament,

With gold and silver and purple ornament,

Shall be weighed down; and the full-bearing earth

And the sea shall be filled full of good things.

And kings against each other shall begin

The great God's temple and the noblest men.

And have his people that obey not God.

And then shall God speak with a mighty voice

And judgment from the mighty God shall come

Upon them, and they all shall be destroyed

By his immortal arm. And fiery swords

Shall fall front heaven on earth; and great bright lights

And in those days shall earth, all-mother, reel

By his immortal arm, and shoals of fish

In the deep sea, and all wild, beasts of earth,

And countless tribes of winged fowl, and all

And countless tribes of winged fowl, and all

The souls of men and every sea shall tremble

And there shall be dismay. High mountain peaks

And monstrous hills shall he asunder break,

And to all shall dark Erebus appear.

And misty gorges in the lofty hills

Shall be full of the dead; and rocks shall stream

With blood and every torrent fill the plain.

And well-built walls of evil-minded men

Against the temple and raised up their spears.

And God shall judge all by war and by sword

And God shall judge all by war and by sword

And by fire and by overwhelming storm;

And by fire and by overwhelming storm;

And brimstone there shall be from heaven, and stones

And brimstone there shall be from heaven, and stones

And great and grievous hail; and death shall come

And great and grievous hail; and death shall come

And great and grievous hail; and death shall come

Upon the quadrupeds. And then shall they

And wailing, and upon the boundless earth

And wailing, and upon the boundless earth
