Self-Condemnation Annotated

Thou who condemnest Jewish hate,
For choosing Barrabas a murderer
Before the Lord of glorie;
Look back upon thine own estate,
Call home thine eye (that busie wanderer):
That choice may be thy storie.

He that doth love, and love amisse,
This worlds delights before true Christian joy,
Hath made a Jewish choice:
The world an ancient murderer is;
Thousands of souls it hath and doth destroy
With her enchanting voice.

Hе that hath made a sorrie wedding
Bеtween his soul and gold, and hath preferr’d
False gain before the true,
Hath done what he condemnes in reading:
For he hath sold for money his deare Lord,
And is a Judas-Jew.

Thus we prevent the last great day,
And judge our selves. That light, which sin & passion
Did before dimme and choke,
When once those snuffes are ta’ne away,
Shines bright and cleare, ev’n unto condemnation,
Without excuse or cloke.
