Luyện nghe bài hát A Memorable Fancy 5

(plates 22-24)
Once I saw a Devil in a flame of fire. Who arose before an angel sat
on a cloud, and the devil utter'd words: 'The worship of God is:
honouring His gifts in other men. Each to his genius, and loving
the greatest men best: those who envy or caluminate great men hate
for there is no other God, ' The hearing this became almost blue,
but mastering himself yellow.& at last white, pink,& smiling, and
then replied: 'Thou idolater, is not God one? & Is not He in
Christ? And has not Jesus Christ given his sanction to the law of
ten commandments, and are not all men fools, sinners & nothings? '
The devil answer'd: 'Bray a fool in a mother wheat. Yet shall not his
folly be beaten out of him; if Christ is the greatest man, you ought
to him in the greatest degree; now hear how He has given His sanction
to the law of ten commandments: did He not at the Sabbath, and so
the sabbath's god? Murder those who were murdered because of Him?
Turn away the law from the woman taken in adultery? Steal the of
others to support him? Bear false witness when He omitted a defence
before Pilate? when He pray'd for His disciples, and when He bid
them off the dust of their feet against such as refused to lodge
them? I tell you, no virtue can exist without breaking ten
commandments. was all virtue, and acted from impulse, not from
rules! When He had so spoken, I beheld the angel who out his
arms, embracing the flame of fire & he was and arose as Elijah.
this angel who is now become a devil, is my particular friend; we
often read the bible together in its infernal or diabolical sense
the world shall have if they behave well. I have the bible of hell,
which the world shall have whether will or no. One law for the lion &
ox is oppression.
