But
for
the
better
expression
of
the
purpose
in

,
a
Speaker
giues
life
to
these
following
words
.
The
Speech
in
the
Hill
where
the
Raine-bow
appeares
.
A
Cloude
of
griefe
hath
showrde
vpon
the
face
Of
this
sad
City
,
and
vsurpt
the
place
Of
Ioy

Cheerfulnesse

wearing
the
forme
,
Of
a
long
blacke
Ecclipse

,
With
flowers
of
Teares

Till

Behold

Like

Glad

And

Day
;
Fixt

Substitute

Delight

Triumph

Pompe

The
Garden

,
The
lofty
Flowers
beare
vp
their
fragrant
heads
;
Fruit
ouer-lade
their
Trees
,
Barnes
cracke
with
store
,
And
yet
how
much
the
Heavens
wept
before
:
Threatning
a
second
mourning
,
who
so
dull
,
But
must
acknowledge
Mercie
was
at

.
In
these
two
mighty
blessings
;
what

requir'd
?
That

Care

,
Sir

who
in

To

Neuer

Nor
