George Herbert - Self-Condemnation
Work rating: Low

       Thou who condemnest Jewish hate,
For choosing Barabbas a murderer
            Before the Lord of glorie;
       Look back upon thine own estate,
Call home thine eye (that busie wanderer)
            That choice may be thy storie.

       He that doth love, and love amisse
This world`s delights before true Christian joy,
            Hath made a Jewish choice:
       The world an ancient murderer is;
Thousands of souls it hath and doth destroy 
            With her enchanting voice.

       He that hath made a sorrie wedding
Between his soul and gold, and hath preferr`d
            False gain before the true,
       Hath done what he condemnes in reading:
For he hath sold for money his deare Lord,
            And is a Judas-Jew.

       Thus we prevent the last great day,
And judge our selves. That light which sin and passion
            Did before dimme and choke,
       When once those snuffes are ta`en away,
Shines bright and cleare, ev`n unto condemnation,
            Without excuse or cloak.
