With that twise-batter'd god of Palestine,  
And mooned Ashtaroth,  
200  
Heav'ns Queen and Mother both,  
Now sits not girt with Tapers holy shine,  
The Libyc Hammon shrinks his horn,  
In vain the Tyrian Maids their wounded Thamuz mourn.  
XXIII  
And sullen Moloch fled,  
Hath left in shadows dred,  
His burning Idol all of blackest hue,  
In vain with Cymbals ring,  
They call the grisly king,  
In dismall dance about the furnace Blue;  
And Brutish gods of Nile as fast,  
lsis and Orus, and the Dog Anubis hast.  
210  
THE PASSION.
