  1. (continued from previous page)
    And hope in time of danger
    And the sceptre which occasioned
    The demons to elope.

    His flesh is bread for eating
    His blood for drink He gave you
    With faculty and reason
    He each of you endowed
    Lest Mammon should betray you
    And heresy ensnare you
    Or Satan should betray you
    To regions of woe.
    5.
    When rocks will split asunder
    Each stone will flee with wonder
    The air will rent with thunder
    The elements will roar
    The sun will then be eclipsed
    The moon and stars in darkness
    Waters will decrease
    Most amazing to behold.
