God
is
the
Truth , and , if
you
doubt it,
look
Into
the
pages
of His
sacred
book .
John .
I have
read
that
through
and through
Henry .
Read
once
again
!
God
makes
His meaning
absolutely
plain .
He demonstrates
that ,
when
the world
began ,
He made
a
solemn
covenant with
man ;
Tells
how , and
where
the
fatal
tree
was
set
In
Eden ;
furthermore, how
woman
ate;
Yea
,
how
Eve
tempted
Adam
and
he
fell
,
Necessitating
everlasting Hell
.
Praise
be
to
Him
whose
wisdom
could
invent
That final word
to
every
argument
!
Thou
hast the Light
-
Join
therefore
the
Elect
.
Avoid
His
anger
,
or
thou mayest
expect
Damnation
.
For
the
Lord
will never break
His
covenant
.
His
honour
is
at
stake
.

Caspar
enters
from
the
inn
,
tankard
in
hand
.
Swift
is
His
vengeance
,
terrible His
rod
.
Caspar
,
bear
witness
!—
Who
is
God
?
Caspar
.
God
?
God
!
His
rod
is
feeble
and His
vengeance
slow
.
God
!
What
a
thing
to
ask
!
Why
bother me
?
I'
ve
drunk
a
bit
—
that
's
all
I
seem
to
know
.
Yet
sometimes
I
have
wondered
—
Who
is
He
?
The
everchanging
wind
and dreamy
tide
Rule
Ocean
;
that
at
any
rate
is
sure
.
Make
them
your gods
and
you
shall
learn
to
ride
Upon
the veriest
typhoon
secure
.
Yet
in
the
tropics
,
when
the heavens melt
