Ask and receive thy full demands; Thine shall the heathen be: The utmost limits of the lands Shall be possess’d by thee.

Appease the Son with due respect, Your timely homage pay; Lest he revenge the bold neglect, Incens’d by your delay. 13 If but in part his anger rise, Who can endure the flame? Then blest are they whose hope relies On his most holy Name.

Why in such rash attempts engage, As they can ne’er perform? The great in counsel and in might Their various forces bring; Against the Lord they all unite, And his anointed King. Must we submit to their commands? Presumptuously they say: No, let us break their slavish bands, And cast their chains away.

Learn then, ye princes; and give ear, Ye judges of the earth; Worship the Lord with holy fear; Rejoice with awful mirth.
