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 utter'd these words: 'The worship of God is:
honouring His gifts in other men. Each according to his genius, and
the greatest men best: those who or caluminate great men hate God;
for there is no other God, ' The angel hearing this became blue,
but himself grew yellow.& at last white, pink,& smiling, and
replied: 'Thou idolater, is not God one? & Is not He visible in
Jesus Christ? And has not Jesus given his sanction to the law of
ten commandments, and are not all other men fools, & nothings? '
The devil answer'd: 'Bray a fool in a mother with wheat. Yet not his
be beaten out of him; if Jesus Christ is the greatest man, you ought
to love him in the greatest degree; now how He has given His sanction
to the law of ten commandments: did He not at the Sabbath, and so
mock the god? Murder those who were murdered because of Him?
Turn away the law the woman taken in adultery? Steal the labour of
others to support him? Bear false when He omitted making a defence
before Pilate? Covet 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 these ten
commandments. Jesus was all virtue, and acted impulse, not from
rules! When He had so spoken, I beheld the angel who out his
arms, embracing the flame of & he was consumed and arose as Elijah.
Note: this angel who is now become a devil, is my friend; we
read the bible together in its infernal or diabolical sense which
the world shall have if they behave well. I also the bible of hell,
which the world have whether they will or no. One law for the lion &
ox is oppression.
