(Page 3 of 3)

br> And made it fouler; let their flames retire, br> And burn me O Lord, with a fiery zeal br> Of thee and thy house, which doth in eating heal. /em> /blockquote> br> Again, it is not Donne who has the strength. It is God who must burn him “with a fiery zeal … for which doth in eating heal.” It is God alone who saves us.
