The heavens above and all therein more haly are than we: They ferve tie Lord in their eftate» each one in his degree. They doe not ftrive for mafter/hip, n )r flack their office fet: But ferve the Lord and do his wiU hate is to them no let. Alfo the earth and all therein* of God it is in awe: It doth obftrve the Formers will» by skilfull natures law. The fea and all that is therein doth bend when God doth beck: The l])irits beneath do tremble all, and feare his wrathfull check, ■ Bat we alas for whom all thefe were made them for to rule, Do not fo know or love the Lord, as doth the Oxe or Mu'e, A Law he gave for us to know what was his holy will: He would Qs goodjbut we would not avoid the thing is ill. Not one of us that feeketh out the Lord of life to pleafe: Nor doth the thing that taight us lead to Chrift and quiet eafe. Thus are we all his enemies* we can it not denie: And he ao;aine of his good will would not that welhoiild die. Therefore when remedy was none' to bring us unto life: The Son of God our flelh he tookj ' soeudouinioKaUftrife And all the law of God the Lciii ' he did it fall obey: And for our fins upon the C»9fie bis bloud our debts did pay.

And as the oven with fire hot did clofe it ap with heat: And all this done that I have faJdi that it (hould be our meat. So waj the Lord in his ripe age cut down by cruell death: His Ibule he gave in torments greit» a»d yeelcRd up his breath. Becaufe that he to us might be an cverlafting bread: With much reproach and troubles great on earth his iile he led. And as the grapes in pleafant time are prelfed very fore: And plucked down when they be ripe, and let to grow no mere. Becaufe the Juycc that in them Is, as comfortable drink, We might receive and joyful! be, when fiirrowes make us ihrink.
