A wolf that eats up all

Sin is a devouring, a consuming element. Sin is a 
fire which devours and consumes all; it turned Sodom 
and Gomorrah into ashes; it has destroyed the Chaldean, 
Persian, and Grecian kingdoms, and will at last destroy 
the Roman kingdom also. 

Sin is a wolf that eats up all. 
This wolf ate up . . .
Samson's strength,
Absalom's beauty,
Ahithophel's policy, and
Herod's glory, etc. 

Sin has drowned one world already, and will at last 
burn our present world up. Oh the hopes, the hearts, 
the happiness, the joys, the comforts, the souls—that 
this fire, sin, has consumed and destroyed!
