The Cardinal

Which Justify the Wicked for Reward, and Take Away the Righteousness of the Righteous From Him

Isaiah v. 23.

Woe, grievous Woe, to you, who now
The impious Man caress;
Exalt the unjust to Height of Wealth,
The virtuous Man oppress.

Who seek the World’s fallacious Gifts
To gain without Delay,
And the true Path of Righteousness
Desire to take away.
