BY JOSHUA HUNTINGTON,
Pastor of the Old South Church.

"The chamber where the good man meets his fate;
Is privileg'd beyond the common walk
Of virtuous life, quite in the verge of heav'n.
Fly, ye profane! if not, draw near with awe,
Receive the blessing, and adore the chance,
That threw in this Bethesda your disease;
If unrestor'd by this, despair your cure;
For here, resistless demonstration dwells:"
