' Hv this text it ia intended lli.it Mm readers should be thoroughly im pressed that God intends to handle the wicked who will not heed. Roughly, even as man is rough on rats. He will see them tread down and walked over as ashes beneath the feet of the righteous. Their very hearts shall be ground into dust and distributed over Mother Earth for better use. I tough on the Wicked Ik-cause They Steal for a laving (a) They steal the crackers from an infant. They have no feeling of sympathy or mercy, but ate all for self. Some would steal the white out of a pig's eye, and would venture day in torment to steal a watch stem. (b) They will steal the corn of a peasant or king. As rats the wick ed will steal from the hog pen to the palace, and as rate from eating "rough on rats" they shall sicken and die, be tread down, be kicked around in the fires of hell. Het-ause They Are t'noleaii (a) They frequent unclean places the whiskey and beer houses, the reprobate dives, the gambling shops of devils. Witches have besmeared the wicked with mud from the cess pool of hell, and have made many rhnracteYi beyond repair. (b) They take no bath, as rats. Some people give neither body, soul nor character a cleansing bath. They crow dirty from head to foot, from skin to heart. Been Jesus Christ cannot cleanse the 1 1 a nipled-down wicked.
