2 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the ways of David his father, and declined neither to the right hand, nor to the left.
With zeal immense, Josiah,
Himself a prince, acted in such a way
As no one before or after him had ever done!—Idols he
Dethroned; destroyed unhallowed temples; burned
With fire priests on their altars; all the bones
Of false prophets were dug up; the altars burned,
The carcasses to be consumed did serve
For fuel!
[AD 9999] Pseudo-Tertullian on 2 Chronicles 34:1-8
Himself a prince, acted in such a way
As no one before or after him had ever done!—Idols he
Dethroned; destroyed unhallowed temples; burned
With fire priests on their altars; all the bones
Of false prophets were dug up; the altars burned,
The carcasses to be consumed did serve
For fuel!
