Epigram On The Ways Of The World

[after the Epistles of the Apostle Saint Peter]

 

From pristine good, the world has far declined;
and by the worst the best are much maligned.
But, through the curative that Christ designed,
the people of Salvation are refined,
and all the haughty wicked left behind.
