At Christ’s left hand the Goats do stand,   all whining Hypocrites Who for self-ends did seem Christ’s friends,   but foster’d guileful sprites; Who Sheep resembled, but they dissembled,   (their hearts were not sincere,) Who once did throng Christ’s Lambs among,   but now must not come near. XXVIII. [24] Apostates base and run-aways,   such as have Christ forsaken, Of whom the Devil, with seven more evil,   hath fresh possession taken; Sinners ingrain, reserv’d to pain,   and torments most severe, Because ’gainst light they sinn’d with spite,   are also placed there. XXIX. [25] There also stand a num’rous band,   that no profession made Of Godliness, nor to redress   their ways at all essay’d; Who better knew, but (sinful Crew)   Gospel and Law despiséd. Who all Christ’s knocks withstood like blocks,   and would not be adviséd. XXX. [26] Moreover, there with them appear   a number, numberless, Of great and small, vile wretches all,   that did God’s Law transgress; Idolaters, false worshippers,   Profaners of God’s Name, Who not at all thereon did call,   or took in vain the same. XXXI. [27] Blasphemers lewd, and Swearers shrewd,   scoffers at Purity, That hated God, contemn’d his Rod,   and lov’d Security; Sabbath-polluters, Saints-persecutors,   presumptuous men and proud, Who never lov’d those that reprov’d;   all stand amongst this crowd. XXXII. [28] Adulterers and Whoremongers   were there, with all unchast; There Covetous and Ravenous,   that riches got too fast: Who us’d vile ways themselves to raise   t’ Estates and worldly wealth, Oppression by or knavery,   by force, or fraud, or stealth. XXXIII. [29] Moreover, there together were   children flagiti-ous. And Parents who did them, undo   by nurture vici-ous. False-witness-bearers and self-forswearers,   Murd’rers and Men of Blood, Witches, Enchanters, and Ale-house haunters,   beyond account there stood. XXXIV. [30] Their place there find all Heathen blind   that Nature’s light abus’d, Although they had no tidings glad   of Gospel grace refus’d There stand all Nations and Generations   of Adam’s Progeny, Whom Christ redeem’d not, whom he esteem’d not,   through Infidelity; XXXV. [31] Who no Peace-maker, no undertaker,   to shroud them from God’s ire. Ever obtain’d; they must be pain’d   with everlasting fire. These num’rous bands, wringing their hands,   and weeping all stand there. Filléd with anguish, whose hearts do languish,   through self-tormenting fear, XXXVI. [32] Fast by them stand at Christ’s left hand,   the Lion fierce and fell. The Dragon bold, that Serpent old,   that hurried Souls to Hell. There also stand, under command,   legions of Sprites unclean. And hellish Fiends, that are no friends   to God, nor unto Men. XXXVII. [33]
