Bible -- Juvenile literature
9 Cures one born blind; blinds Pharisees.
10 Shepherd, and door is he.
11 Doth Laz'rus raise, when dead four days.
12 Much people come to see.
13 Doth wash his twelve disciples' feet.
14 Is the truth, life, and way.
15 The vine is he, the branches we,
16 Speaks comfort; bids us pray.
17 Earnestly prays for all his flock,
18 By Peter thrice deny'd.
19 Dying, calls John, his mother's son,
20 To Thomas shew'd his side;
21 Thrice Peter's love he try'd.
_THE ACTS_
1 Acts of th' Apostles; Christ ta'en up,
2 The Holy Ghost descends.
3 At Peter's word the lame's restor'd,
4 Which act the Jews offends.
5 Breathless for lies, Ananias and wife,
6 Seven Deacons are elected.
7 Stephen doth plead: is ston'd teal dead,
8 And Magus is detected.
9 Converted Paul, and Dorcas rais'd.
10 Cornelius Christian made.
11 The christian name from Antioch came.
12 Peter from heav'n finds aid.
13 Deceitful Elymas struck blind.
14 Paul ston'd at Lystra, rises.
15 He counsel craves; decrees receives.
16 The jailor he baptizes.
17 Encounters the Athenians now.
18 At Corinth meets with strife.
19 Finds Ephesus as barbarous.
20 Brings Eutychus to life.
21 First taken at Jerusalem,
22 A just defence doth make.
23 Escapes a plot; to Felix brought,
24 He makes ev'n him to quake.
25 Goes before Festus, pleads, appeals,
26 To king Agrippa preaches.
27 Is shipwrekt, yet to land doth get.
28 At Rome two years he teaches.
_ROMANS_
1 Against Greeks sins Paul writes to Rome,
2 Jews sins are worse he saith.
3 Both Greeks and Jews doth law accuse.
4 Abraham was sav'd by faith.
5 By Adam death, by Christ came life;
6 To sin we dead must be;
7 And to the law, which doth sin show.
8 From wrath Christ doth us free.
9 Curst for the Jews Paul wish'd himself.
10 Shews two-fold righteousness;
11 Tells Israel's fall, and future call,
12 Doth many duties press.
13 Due tribute, custom, honour pay.
14 Of various things he treats;
15 The strong must seek to please the weak,
16 And then his friends he greets.
_I. CORINTHIANS_
1 At Corinth Paul found preaching power
2 Above Man's wisdom priz'd
3 'Tis Paul that plants: increase God grants.
4 The Apostles were despis'd.
5 Bids censure the incestuous man,
6 And suits in law refrain;
7 Of marry'd state and celibate,
8 And meats to idols slain.
9 Claims maintenance for ministers,
10 Shews sacraments of Jews,
11 Then doth insist on the' [9] Eucharist,
12 Of gifts, and of their use.
13 Describes the worth of charity,
14 Of unknown tongues he treats;
15 Then doth maintain fouls rise again.
16 Collections regulates.
[9] The Lord's Supper.
_II. CORINTHIANS_
1 Again tells them his griefs and joys,
2 How that salvation's found;
3 How Christ reveal'd what was conceal'd.
4 Paul's sufferings are crown'd.
