CANT. VIII. 6.
—The coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame.

HYMN 137.

HAve you not seen the Desolations That veh'ment Flames have made; What multitudes of Habitations, In dust and rubbish laid? How fiercely without all respect, To things or persons had, It quickly works its sad effect, And makes mens cases bad? Thus will the just revenging God, Before him send a Fire; And with a smarting burning Rod, Our blood on them require. Now Fire for Fire, Blood for Blood, City for City, shall Be fir'd down; he'l quench his Wrath In Blood, and make them fall.

Now Babels Towers all shall fall, And all her Props come down: The bitter Cup she must drink up, And off must come her Crown. My God make hast, why stay thy Wheels! Why stay thy Charets, Lord! O, why so long, before thou come, According to thy word?
