  Lest your keenest grief to wake,
    Like mine your suffering prattler say,
  ’Go, bid my Father come and take
    ‘These frightful Spots and Sores away.’

Quickly from such fears be free: 
Oh! there is Danger in Delay! 
Say not to-morrow it shall be:  ... 
To-morrow! no; to-day, to-day.

Embrace the Blessing Heaven hath sent;
So shall you ne’er such pangs endure: 
Oh! give a Trifle to prevent,
What you would give a World to cure.
