 Whenever their dwelling you chance to approach.
 * Of their soft invitation beware;

The Pharisee's leaven, the good man's reproach.
 * And the seat of the scorner are there!

To folks of high breeding they offer their pledge,
 * 'Gainst others to raise a complaint;

They'll skim on the surface, and trim off the edge,
 * To pass for a dignified saint!

The God of Elijah who sees through the heart.
 * These specious impostors will spurn.

And send tham in spite of their cunning and art,
 * Where they will eternally mourn!
