(WHICH HAD SPOKEN OF MR. NEWTON'S OPINIONS AS CANT)
THESE critics, who to faith no quarter grant,
But call it mere hypocrisy and cant
To make a just acknowledgment of praise,
And thanks to God for governing our ways,
Approve Confucius more, and Zoroaster,
Than christ's own servant, or that servant's Master.
