the
most

A
meditation
,
that
since
I
conceived
,
hath
laboured
so
farre
with
me
that
I
presume
to
bring
forth
,
this
hasty

harty
manifestation
of
my
boundlesse
desires
,
&
endlesse
duties
to
the

of
that
late

,
now
glorious
Prince
,
beyond
all
titles
in
his
worth
,
all
sorrowes
for
his
death
,
whom
no
eie
with
iudgement
,
ever
beheld
,
without
ravishment
;
lest
therfore
the
remembrance

the
losse

mothe

neglect
,
infest

Honourable
,
and
renowned
plant
as
the
first
flowre
of
the
fig-tree
,
in
the
prime
,
and
bloming
of
his
age
,
hee
was
translated
into
heauen
,
and
why
did
not
heauen
and
earth
remoue
their
stations
,
sunne
and
moone
loose
their
motions
,
and
summer
and

period
their
seasons
at
this
cause
of
sorrow
?
What
in
the
world
shall
make
shewe
to
sence
of
stabilitie
,
what
creature
is
a
fixed
starre
,
if
such
a
Prince
must
die
,
whom
besides
the
by
&
earthly
healps
of
drugges
and
amulets
,
the
divine
hopes
of
vertues
,
prayers
,
teares
,
&
plaints
,
could
not
keep
aliue
:
yet
he
is
aliue
on
earth
in
al
good
mens
thoughts
,
in
heauen
in
all
Gods
ioyes
,
&
though
our
eies
cannot
now
behold
him
,
because
HE
is
to
bright
a
sunne
,
for
our
weake
sight
,
our
lookes
must
be
limited
to
a
meaner
light
,
&
we
must
rather
humble
our selues
to
the
twilight
of
inferior
things
then
celestiall
spirits
.
To
follow
him
in
the
pace
that
nature
lent
him
,
his
life
or
to
the
place
where
nature
left
him
,
his
death
,
deserveth
a
various
&
curious
tract
,
&
were
rather
an
Annall
than
an
Annuall
remembrance
,
to
think
hereby
,
to
add
to
him
reputation
,
that
smoaking
vapour
,
drawne
from
earthly
honour
of
popular
admiration
,
were
frivolous
,
neither
profit
to
him
dead
,
or
approved
of
the
wise
aliue
.
To
excuse
the
cause
of
doing
this
,
were
to
accuse
the
manner
of
doing
it
,
and
therefore
without
Apollogie
,
let
this
testifie
that
I
am
a
perpetuall
votarie
,
to
the
honoured
memorie
of
blessed
PRINCE
HENRY
,
that
whatsoeuer
any
other
wants
be
,
I
may
not
bee
censured
for
want
of
duty
,
that
so
while
I
shall
runne
the
race
of
my
sinfull
daies
,
and
continue
the
passage
of
my
fleeting
pilgrimage

All
the

were
sate

to
see

harken
,
how
his
Highnesse

that
a
Prince
so

so

,
so

,
and
so
patient
so
Heroicall
in

either
should
haue
beene
so
soone

so
good
,
or
be
so
soone
,
so

There
is
no
honest
subiect
that
ever
saw
him
,
but
will
forever
care
to
carry
the
resemblance
of
his
Princely
feature
in
their
best
composed
memory
,
his
piercing
eye
,
gratious
smile
,
graue
frowne
,
and
divine
face
composed
of
modesty
and
maiestie
.
How
slow
he
was
to
anger
,
quicke
to
apprehend
,
how
speedy
to
pardon
,
how
magnificent
in
building
,
munificent
in
entertaining
,
how
constant
in
his
studies
,
&
paramount
in
all
rare
inventions
.
Learne
then
from
hence
all
yee
wandring
Drones
,
whose
life
is
a
continuall
sleepe
,
or
worse
a
sleeping
death
,
of
whom
no
memorie
or
monument
shall
remaine
but
as
that
of
beasts
,
fuerunt
,
yee
whose
sole
knowledge
is
only
the
Philosophy
of
Epicurisme
,
Court
,
Hypocrits
and
Loiterers
about
the
City
,
buyers

sellers
of
the
Temple

How
should
these
thoughts

drawe

driue
yee
out
of
that
as
hatefull
,
as
harmefull
neglect

there
may
be
a

Whose
Religious
soule
,
did
so
truely
entertaine
the
Patronage
and
protection
of
religion
,
that
as
HEE
hated
Poperie
with
a
perfect
hate
,
so
his
loue
vnto
truth
and
learning
,
as
it
shined
outwardly
,
so
did
it
burne
inwardly
in
his
owne
practise
,
in
which
,
besides
his
vnfained
zeale
to
God
,
and
loue
to
good
men
,
he
was
ever
carefull
of
Moyses
and
Davids
lesson
to
number
his
daies
,
never
desiring
to
liue
long
,
nay
,
salvation
,
immortalitie
of
the
soule
,
resurrection
of
the
dead
,
and
ioy
of
the
blessed
,
as
those
neere
about
his
Highnesse
can
testifie
,
by
those
his
wise
,
and
divine
Apothegmes
,
which
will
never
be
razed
out
of
their
most
and
best
reserved
memories
.
Wherein
,
I
cannot
omit
his
especiall
regard
of
honest
Sermons
,
for
that
was
the
title
he
attributed
to
sharp
,
and
sound
sermons
which
neither
favored
of
flattery
or
Poperie
,
among
which
,
as
none
ever
passed
without
his
reverent
attention
,
and
remarkeable
observation
,
so
especially
in
two
preached
before
his
Highnesse
,
though
some
yeares
in
distance
,
yet
in
the
same
month
of
his
finall
and
fatall
sicknesse
.
The
first
at
Richmond
,
in
October
1608.
vpon
that
text
which
afterwards
,

his
grace
at
the
funerall
:
Psal.
82.6.7
.
I
haue
said
yee
are
Gods
and
yee
are
all
children
of
the
most
high
,
But
yee
shall
die
like
men
,
and
fall
like
one
of
the
Princes
,
which
Text
being
entreated
on
,
at
Richmond
by
one
of
his
highnesse
Chaplaines
,
them
waiting
,
and
the
Text
called
the
Fall
of
the
leafe
,
howsoever
the
Chaplaine
,
were
one
of
the
meanest
&
youngest
of
that
name
&
number
,
yet
it
pleased
his
highnesse
to
require
a
coppy
,
thereof
,
and
as
with
Princely
patience
to
heare
,
so
with
godly
diligence
to
recall
some
passages
therein
that
Cedars
of
Libanon
,
Roses
of
the
field
,
Lillies
of
the
Vallyes
,
Princes
,
starres

Angels

fallen
,
that
humanity
and
mortallity
were
twinnes
,
that
all

was
as
a

the
grace
thereof
as

Man
that
is
borne
of

,
is
short
of
daies

full
of

wherein

by
the
miserable

of
man
into

his
miserable

speedy
passage
,
out
of
the
world
,
and
his
miserable
pilgrimage
and
indurance
while
,
he
is
in
the
world
he
stirred
all
,
of
all
estates
to
the
consideration
of
their
states
,
and
did
much
affect
his
highnesse
,
as
appeared
both
by
his
great
attention
and
commendation
thereof
.
Blessed

Learne

by

,
or
prepared
and
not
swept
by
repentance
or
swept
for
a
time
,
and
not

set

by
meditation
of
mortalitie
.
If

Oeconomy

at

One

;
Achitophel
put

and
that

he
went

hanged
himselfe
;
Hesekias
set

When
the
sunne
of
his
Highnesse
life
,
was
ascending
to
the
meridian
,
his
,
and
our
Ecclipse
began
,
&
before
the
noone-tide
of
nature
,
the
night
of
death
set
vpon
him
.
When

worlds
Eccho
of
him
was
that
,
which
Antigonus
spake
of
Pyrrhus
,
maximum

,
O
you
vaine
froathy
fondlings
of
the
world
,
who
are
enimies
to
God
,
because
strangers
to
goodnesse
,
in
whom
custome
of
sinne
hath
left
no
sense
of
shame
,
and
desire
of
life
,
no
feare
of
death
;
learne
hence
,
and
tremble
at
the
lesson
,
what
it
is
,
to
walke
early
,
and
dayly
,
with
your
maker
,
&
learne
,
what
it
is
to
provide

payment
,
before

shall
HE
so
ballace
himselfe

,
that

And

a

But
whither

?
Blessed
Prince
!
he
was
both
an
apt
scholler
and
an
excellent
Master
,
his
vnderstanding
was
illumined
with
the
beames
of
divine
truth
,
God
acquainted
him
with
his
word
,
and
in
his
word
with
his
will
.
Hee
made
sure
for
his
soule
,
&
accounted
it
no
safety
,
to
bee
vnsetled
in
the
foreknowledge
of
his
finall
estate
.
How
were
the
devout
and
frequent
observations
of
his
morning
religious
offices
,
without
intercession
,
privately
continued
,
as
if
with
David
he
had
vowed
,
My
voice
shalt
thou
heare
in
the
morning
O
Lord
,
in
the
morning
will
I
direct
my
praier
vnto
thee
.
This
our
morning
starre
,
preventing
the
morning
watch
in
his
morning
offring
,
as
if
to
him
,
Omnis
dies
esset
vltimus
dies
,
frequently
,
he
would
praise
the
Lord
in
the
Congregation
,
and
that
,
as
that
holy
prophet
professeth
,
instantly
,
yea
and
continually
,
vespere
,
mane
,
meridie
,
in
the
morning
,
evening
,
and
at
noone
,
did
he
praise
the
Lord
,
not
only
,
as
some
interpreters
iudge
,
because
these
three
parts
of
the
day
,
were
consecrated
by
those
three
prime
acts
of
our
redemption
,
the
evening
by
Christs
passion
,
the
morning
by
his
resurrection
,
&
the
noone
by
his
blessed
Ascension
,
but
also
because
these
times
haue
alwaies
by
the
faithfull
of
all
ages
beene
hallowed
by
divine
orisons
,
and
therefore
in
chamber
and
closet
,
our
Solomon
observed
these
,
knowing
,
that
actions
both
of
difficultie
and
weight
,
are
drawne
to
perfection
by
often
vse
.
And
therefore
seeing
it
is
a
very
hardmatter
,
either
to
praie
,
or
to
die
,
either
willingly
,
or
well
,
all
ought
both
timelie
and
diligently
to
exercise
themselues
,
that
by
praying
often
,
and
so
consequently
,
by
dying
often
,
in
the
end
,
men
may
both
pray
,
and
die
,
easily
and
willingly
.
O
then
all
yee
drowsie
Night-birds
!
arise
from
your
beds
of
sloth
,
pale
horse
,
and
him
that
sitteth
thereon
,
whose
name
is
death
.
Provide
,
that
yee
be
not
sodainely
surprised
,
and
dy

It
is
weaknesse
to
be
vnwilling
,
to
that
which
is
necessary
to
be
done
,
it
is
necessary
to
die
,
and
it
is
necessary
for
dying
well
,
often
to
pray
,
often
to
meditate
vpon
thy
death
.
A
day
wil
come
,
when
thy

be

,
be

thou
canst
not

be

thou
canst
not

be
thou
never
so
wise
,
thou
canst
neither
appease
nor
avoid
DEATH
.
Which
in
the
principall
strength
,
and
beauty
of
age
,
plungeth
the
thoughts
of
the
worldly
,
interrupteth
the
enterprises
of

breaketh
the

Which
meditation
extracted
by
the
Limbique
of
contemplation
into
vertuous
action
,
indued
and
endowed
our
PRINCE
,
with
an
humble
holy
patience
in
all
the
stormy
invasions
of
his
sicknesse
,
having
so
conquered
himselfe
,
as
sorrowes
could
not
conquer
him
,
his
experiments
,
sage
for
their
truth
,
though
young
for
their
time
,
had
drawne
out
rules
of
confidence
,
and
patience
,
which
he
did
oppose
,
against
all
the
feares
of
distrust
:
he
knew
whom
he
trusted
,
and
how
farre
death
could
lead
him
,
his
shield
was
of
a
mettall
,
not
so
hard
,
as
flexible
,
&
,
as
it
was
never
missed
,
so
never
pierced
,
he
both
saw
,
&
endured
a
divine
hand
invisibly
striking
,
and
in
those
sensible
scourges
he
did
not
murmur
.
His
hopes
were
so
strong
,
that
they
insult
over
the
greatest
discouragements
,
his
apprehensions
so
deepe
that
when
he
once
fastened
,
he
sooner
left
his
life
than
his
hould
,
his
holy
patience
invincible
,
as
full
of
faith
,
as
void
of
fury
,
being
then
aboue
nature
when
below
himselfe
,
his
paines
,
faintings
,
heats
,
tossings
,
&
convulsions
not
able
to
distract
his
person
,
or
disturb
his
patience
.
when
after
a
lingring
,
growing
encreasing
possession
of
some
pestilent
humor
,
sicknesse
had
surprised
his
head
,
forhead
Socrates-like
resolute
and
firme
,
&
with
a
setled
countenance
,
he
consults
the
Pilots
of
his
bodily
vessell
,
and
in
their
distraction
,
while
he
suffers
and
is
silent
,
and
beholders
pitie
him
,
and
his
torments
cannot
disease
him
,
he
refers
all
peaceably
,
patiently
,
to
the
will
of
his
maker
,
Learne

in

of

whose

was

as
that

Totum

whose

phreneticall

who

and
are
more
turbulent
then

who
in

are

to
blaspheme
God
and

,
whose

are

,
as

who

Thus
,
in
him
never
was
divorce
between
devotion
&
patience
.
Holy
soule
!
how
prevalent
was
devotion
in
him
,
by
which
hee
cast
so
often
sweet
wood
into
his
bitter
waters
!
how
did
Gods
spirit
by
this
subdue
his
reason
,
regenerate
his
will
,
purifie
his
nature
,
how
by
this
,
in
his
extremitie
hourely
did
he
walke
with
his
maker
,
and
talke
with
him
familiarly
,
celestial
spirits
affording
him
company
and
service
,
all
the
roomes
of
his
holy
hart
set
a
part
for
holinesse
!
Which
habit
was
obtained
by
the
former
acquisition
of
it
,
in
those
many
vertuous
actions
of
his
tender
age
,
when
in
the
14
yeare
of
his
time
,
he
approved
himselfe
to
be
a
religious
hearer
,
iudicious
observer
,
and
obsequious
obeyer
of
the
word
of
his
maker
,
his
gracefull
gravitie
,
giving
much
life
to
those
sermons
,
which
were
heard
by
him
,
but
his
practise
much
more
.
Among
many
others
this
one
remarkable
monument
shall
rest
with
renowne
vpon
his
memorie
,
he
abhorred
an
oath
,
laying
,
besides
the
Obeliske
of
imputation
,
a
pecuniary
mulct
vpon
those
his
followers
and
family
,
who
were
found
faulty
in
swearing
,
which
monies
were
duly
distributed
,
to
the
poore
.
Neither
can
I
here
omit
his
religious
answer
made
vnto
one
,
that
wondred
,
at
his
sports
,
to
obserue
his
highnesse
freedome
from
oathes
,
hee
answeres
,
I
never
knew
any
sport
worth
an
oath
.
This
holinesse
so
early
began
,
ended
not
,
sicknesse
diseased
it
not
,
sorrow
disordred
it
not
.
He
shewed
his
owne
care
of
serving
God
then
,
in
his
daily
calling
vpon
him
,
commanding
in
the
entrance
of
his
sicknesse
,
that
the
ordinary
howres
&
prayers
in
his
Closet
should
be
duly
observed
,
as
if
hee
had
derived
pietie
,
as
well
as
royaltie
from
Ioshuah
his
example
,
whose
speech
was
,
I
and
my
house
will
serue
the
Lord
;
besides
the
prayers
which
often
he
desired
to
bee
vsed
at
his
highnesse
bed-side
,
wherein
a
learned
and
Reverend
more
openly
,
such
was
his
happy
and
harty
respect
to
his
religious
prayers
.
As
also
his
desire
and
delight
to
receaue
those
heavenly
plentifull
instructions
,
and
to
partake
in
those
holy
powerfull
devotions
of
the
most
Reverend
Archb.
who
daily
did
both
visit
,
and
perfect
that
good
worke
in
him
,
so
that
neither
the
dulnesse
of
the
disease
,
drowsinesse
of
his
head
,
dimnesse
of
his
eies
,
or
disturbances
of
his
whole
afflicted
body
,
could
hinder
the
divine
part
from
her
great
solace
in
so
great
sorrow
.

should
it
amaze
those
subterranean
Moles
,
who
desire
to
haue
their
portion
still
in
this
life
,
crying
faciamus
his
tabernacula
!
Who
when
Death
serveth
the
execution
vpon
them
are
most
vnwillingly
drawne
,
their
dennes
,
with
malevolence
&
violence
,
roaring
out
as
lamentable
a
farewell
to
their
soules
as
Adrianus
the
Romane
Emperour
,
who
cryed
out
Animula
,
vagula
,
blandula
,
&c.
That
his
fondling
and
darling
soule
was
now
fleeting
,
&
he
knew
not
vnto
what
darknesse
&
danger
it
should
passe
,
where
now
shoulde
be
hits
lodging
,
now
,
that
it
was
to
loose
hits
former
delight
,
and
sporting
,
he
knew
not
the
pace
,
the
place
,
the
passage
,
the
entertainment
,
how
farre
was
he
from
him
,
whose
motto
was
,
Nec
pudet
viuere
,
nec
piget
mori
,
from
all
the
Saints
of
God
,
that
know
they
are
but
translated
,
dissolued
,
gathered
to
their
fathers
,
fallen
a
sleepe
,
their
life
is
hid
for
a
time
,
that
they
lay
downe
their
tabernacles
,
lie
downe
in
peace
,
sleepe
in
the
Lord
,
rest
in
hope
,
wait
their
change
;
that
death
,
is
only
a
ferry
,
a
boat
,
a
bridge
to
convay
them
into
another
place
,
or
as
a
Groome
,
that
lights
a
taper
into
another
roome
.
But
ô
humane
witchcraft
!
that
so
enchanteth
those
two
divinely
polished
tables
of
the
soule
,
the
wil
&
vnderstanding
,
cheating
the
affections
in
the
one
,
checking
the
meditations
of
the
other
.
Why
,
do
not
the
gallant
walking
Ghosts
,
of
this
godlesse-age
provide
more
willingly
to
entertaine
the
divorce
&
dissolution
of
their
earthly
frame
?
why
,
so
dayly
do
they
incur
,
the
death
of
both
parts
,
when
as
their
defluxion
,
and
consuming
course
is
daily
manifested
?
every
minute
they
liue
,
being
a
steppe
vnto
death
,
every
action
pulling
away
some
part
of
their
beloved
life
,
when
like
a
candle
continually
burning
,
they
are
howrely
dying
,
and
yet
,
as
vnwilling
to
die
,
as
weake
to
resist
death
;
the
head
a
skull
,
the
breath
smoake
,
the
eie
water
,
the
braine
dirt
,
the
hart
dust
,
the
body
a
house
of
clay
,
dead
sea
;
and
as
an
ancient
compareth
our
body
disposed
into
the
fower
humors
vnto
the
veile
of
the
Temple
,
composed
of
the
4.
Colours
,
as
,
this
vaile
must
be
removed
,
before
the
entrance
can
be
obtained
,
into
the
Sanctum
Sanctorum
,
so
,
must
the
body
put
of
mortality
,
to
indue
it selfe
with
immortality
.
But
the
fleeting
Meteors
,
of
this
fond
age
,
neglect
the
Contemplation
hereof
,
and
being
no
more
able
to
abide
death
,
then
quiet
in
thinking
on
the
feare
of
death
,
they
wish
,
to
fly
even
from
themselues
,
and
to
be
discharged
,
from
being
guided
by
so
ill
a
guest
,
as
their
owne
soule
,
they
wish
their
portion
to
continue
in
this
life
,
they
can
be
content
,
to
stay
here
for
ever
.
The
base
wealth
,
false
pleasures
,
vaine
hopes
,
lying
promises
,
fained
friendship
,
short
glory
,
fading
beauty
of
this
dull
and
dungeon-like
life
,
yeelds
them
sufficient
satisfaction
;
otherwise
to
be
sequestred
from
these
itching
toies
,
bewitching
ioies
,
and
to
leaue
the
world
,
they
are
most
loathsomly
loath
,
they
answere
,
they
know
,
where
they
are
,
whither
they
shall
goe
they
know
not
,
and
herevpon
in
the
instant
of
their
transmigration
they
are
so
vnwilling
to
leaue
the
world
,
hence
is
it
that
they
begin
to
feele
the
flames
of
Hell
before
they
goe
downe
to
the
graue
,
before
them
horror
,
behinde
them
terror
,
on
the
one
side
sinne
,
on
the
other
shame
,
fire
in
the

,
a
serpent
at
the
heart
,
terrors
of
the
night
,
sting
of
conscience
,
feare
of
hell
,
torture
them
,
and
,
their
vnwillingnes
to
die
is
most
willing
to
torment
them
.
But
I
proceed

my
subiect

How
sorrowful
a
day
,
was
this
Vigil
of
his
death
?
How
watry
,
that
day
,
the
5.
of
November
,
which
should
haue
beene
the
day
of
feare
and
fire
and
fury
,
if
that
Tragedy
,
which
Antichrist
and
hell
plotted
,
had
been
acted
!
How
was
this
day
,
the
day
of
Ioy
and
Iubile
for
deliverance
!
I
say
how
was
the
glory
and
beauty
thereof
changed
by
this
Ecclipse
of
the
Princely
sunne
!
The
Lord
even
then
visiting
vs
,
Lamentations
,
Lord
,
thou
hast
called
vs
in
a
solemne
day
,
and
now
terrors
are
round
about
vs
.
A
day
that
at
the
institution
thereof
did
occasion
more
cause
of
ioy
,
to
vs
,
them
any
ordinary
day
of
deliuerance
to
the
Iewes
,
our
deliverance
greater
,
our
enimies
more
cruell
,
their
snares
more
fearefull
,
the
mischeefe
more
miserable
,
the
misery
more
generall
,
and
the
proiect
more
horrid
,
and
terrible
then
ever
any
,
we
read
of
among
Iewes
,
or
Gentiles
,
Graecians
or
Barbarians
,
or
the
history
of
any
estate
hath
read
,
heard
,
or
registred
in
times
Chronology
.
A
day
,
wherein
they
cryed
of
Zion
,
downe
with
it
,
downe
with
it
even
to
the
ground
.
Wherein
the
Oracles
of
our
wisdome
,
the
Chariots
of
our
Israell
,
the
sacred
Reverence
of
our
Clergy
had
beene
devoured
,
the
learned
Guardians
of
our
Iustice
,
the
whole
estate
of
our
weale-publike
,
by
a
publicke
woe
,
had
beene
blasted
and
blemished
,
and
consumed
.
A
day
that
should
haue
been
mother
to
the
fowlest
monster
,
and
monstrous
plot
,
that
ever
was
purposed
or
performed
,
facinus
tale
quod
nec
Poeta
fingere
,
nec
Histrio
sonare
,
nec
mimus
imitari
poterat
,
even
in
that
day
,
wherein
wee
were
freed
and
delivered
by
a
miraculous
hand
,
from
this
hell-borne
horror
intended
against
vs
.
O
how
was
this
daie
altered
,
by
the
publicke
sorrow
for
vertues
sicknesse
!
This
fift
day
feare
possessed
City
and
Court
;
a
day
,
that
though
Pythagoras
and
Hesiod
,
count
to
bee
most
infortunate
,
yet
was
never
ominous
or
inauspitious
to
vs
;
witnes
the
gracious
preservation
of
the
Lords
Annointed
on
the
5
of
August
and
this
5
of
November
.
Now
many
&
hearty
prayers
were
in
fiery
Chariots
sent
vp
to
heauen
,
to
implore
divine
maiestie
,
that
this
day
we
might
not
be
led
into
the
temptation
of
such
a
tempestuous
shipwracke
as
the
losse
of
our
Prince
.
fift
day
,
the
Gyants
began
their
warres
against
heaven
,
shipwracks
,
earthquakes
,
tempests
,
devastations
,
being
even
proper
to
this
day
;
and
the
Brumalia
being
kept
in
the
same
month
of
November
,
and
about
the
5
day
,
had
the
dedication
,
à
sonitu
tonitrus
&
fulminis
.
Yet
neither
this
month
,
nor
this
day
,
fift
daies
furies
,
and
the
Brumalia
,
the
Winters
feast
,
which
was
intended
,
yet
now
the
Ioy
of
our
heart
was
humbled
,
and
feare
was
on
every
side
.
But
Thou
continuest
holy
O
thou
worship
of
Israel
.
O
Lord
,
let
it
never
be
forgotten
,
that
thou
didst
please
to
spare
and
forbeare
the
great
iudgement
of
this
day
,
and
this
day
didst
not
so
overshadowe
vs
,
with
sorrow
,
as
to
take
away
our
Iosias
,
in
the
celebritie
of
our
preservation
,
to
extinguish
our
ioy
vtterly
,
by
Hadadrimmons
lamentation
.
A
meditation
,
that
should
stirre
vp
al
those
vnfaithfull
vnthankfull
soules
among
vs
,
who
neglect
the
Lords
favour
,
and
the
remembrance
of
his
holinesse
,
in
the
deliverance
of
this
day
.
It
was
his
infinite
mercy
that
this
day
he
let
not
our
enimies
laugh
vs
to
scorn
or
to
triumph
over
vs
,
but
deferred
Prince
HENRYES
death
one
day
further
.
Yet
certainely
hee
suffered
this
heavy
iudgement
to
fall
vpon
vs
so
neere
to
this
time
,
because
we
are
so
forgetfull
of
his
marvailous
deliverance
from
the
dangerous
engins
prepared
against
that
time
.
It
is
not
vnworthy
the
observation
,
solemne
feasts
,
surely
for
the
prophanesse
and
vnthankfulnesse
of
them
,
for
those
blessings
receaued
,
which
occasioned
the
institution
of
those
feasts
.
And
why
should
wee
not
forever
hereafter
stand
in
awe
,
trembling
,
and
fearing
,
how
the
Lord
hath
afflicted
vs
so
neere
our
solemn
feast
day
.
And
though
he
had
delivered
vs
from
the
violence
and
malevolence
of
men
&
Divels
,
yet
,
if
we
turne
not
,
he
can
whet
his
sword
&
bend
his
bow
,
as
he
did
by
that
arrow
that
strook
Israels
Iosiah
.
12
It
is
as
true
as
terrible
,
iudgement
may
be
prolonged
,
but
when
the
mouth
of
the
Lord
hath
spoken
,
by
no
power
it
can
be
avoided
.
The
sixt
day
ensued
,
which
as
if
it
had
had
a
divine
dispensation
to
breake
the
sixt
commandement
,
slew
our
PRINCE
.
A
day
,
that
hath
beene
Principibus
infesta
&
infausta
;
witnesse
the
death
of
Richard
the
first
,
the
sixt
of
Aprill
;
the
second
,
the
6
of
Iuly
;
Iulium
sydus
,
Prince
HENRYES
sunne
did
set
.
Divine
soule
!
how
readily
did
it
moue
to
its
Center
,
&
how
constantly
!
all
the
stormes
could
not
shipwrack
the
arke
of
his
faith
,
all
the
surges
could
not
sinke
his
pretious
soule
.
He
continued
victoriously
Constant
,
&
is
assured
,
to
see
the
Lord
in
the
land
of
the
living
.
The
beames
of
his
faith
did
reflect
vpon
him
,
and
kept
life
beyond
life
in
him
,
when
the
last
symptomes
,
the
harbingers
of
death
appeared
,
in
that
dismall
period
,
of
that
fatall
day
,
the
violence
of
convulsions
,
and
fury
,
and
extremity
of
the
disease
appearing
then
most
terribly
,
because
it
was
never
to
appeare
againe
.
In
that
sparke
of
life
,
his
last
&
best
Physitian
,
the
most
Religious
,
most
Reverend
Archb.
his
Grace
,
being
his
highnesse
heavenly
remembrancer
by
many
hearty
,
&
holy
exhortations
to
assure
him
with
assured
Constancy
,
of
Gods
mercy
,
to
lift
vp
his
hart
to
prepare
him
to
meete
the
Lord
;
and
calling
more
earnestly
and
lowdly
,
because
the
organs
of
speech
and
hearing
were
deprived
of
vse
,
his
highnesse
being
earnestly
moved
to
manifest
by
signes
his
apprehension
of
these
divine
exhortations
and
his
assent
herevnto
,
he
lifted
vp
his
holy
hands
vnited
,
&
afterwards
his
eies
bent
to
heaven
,
from
whence
not
long
after
appeared
,
in
his
deliverance
,
his
salvation
.
Learne
hence
all
yee
vnmindfull
,
vnfaithful
,
vnconstant
,
weather-beaten
worldlings
,
who
,
like
reeds
tossed
of
the
winde
,
never
continue
in
one
stay
,
whom
the
least
blast
of
affliction
doth
so
amate
and
amaze
,
as
that
God
is
forgotten
,
and
being
vnbeleeving
Scepticks
,
beleeue
no
more
then
yee
see
,
and
feare
no
more
then
yee
feele
,
and
therefore
are
sure
to
want
the
Continuance
of
Constancie
at
your
deaths
,
because
you
were
never
acquainted
with
it
in
your
life
.
When
all
your
members
and
faculties
are
surprised
,
all
paines
&
perplexities
enlarged
,
when
the
sorrowes
of
death
compasse
yee
about
,
&
the
floods
of
wickednesse
make
yee
afraid
;
then
how
horrid
will
it
be
,
that
out
of
all
your
former
lifes
extraction
no
one
drop
,
either
of
Comfort
,
or
Constance
,
may
be
distild
!
When
the
aking
head
,
panting
hart
,
faultring
tongue
,
shortning
breath
,
beating
veines
,
crazed
minde
,
and
crackt
memory
shall
disturbe
,
and
distract
all
your
facult●es
,
and
not
only
your
heavenly
,
but
even
earthly
cogitations
;
when
the
dumbe
mouth
,
numbed
hands
,
stiffe
ioints
,
pale
lips
,
vanishing
strength
,
and
expiring
life
,
be
the
forerunners
of
a
dolefull
fearefull
death
;
and
the
want
of
a
religious
settled
constant
memory
,
shall
then
bring
the
woe
of
a
wanton
minde
,
and
yee
shall
by
a
scourge
of
Conscience
receiue
a
beginning
in
this
life
of
your
full
torments
in
the
flames
of
hell
,
the
eternall
iustice
making
you
executioners
of
your
owne
faults
:
the
hart
&
hope
,
of
life
being
but
a
bubble
,
a
smoake
,
a
lie
,
a
fury
,
Salomon
,
Esay
,
and
Iob
,
haue
described
it
,
wanting
the
sweet
solace
of
the
soule
,
and
that
assurance
,
which
the
Saints
haue
in
all
your
anguishes
and
extremities
,
neither
obtaining
acceptance
with
God
nor
repentance
from
God
,
a
Graue-stone
lying
vpon
your
harts
,
sealed
with
the
sense
of
Gods
iudgements
,
pressed
downe
with
the
rubbish
and
ruines
of
the
decayed
monuments
of
ancient
transgressions
▪
your
foundation
laid
not
vpon
the
rocke
,
but
on
the
sands
,
and
in
the
sea
,
where
waues
and
windes
beat
on
every
side
,
when
all
those
old
friends
,
but
new
enimies
lie
in
ambush
,
the
corrupters
of
iudgement
,
seducers
of
will
,
Traitors
of
vertue
,
flatterers
of
vice
,
Pyoners
of
Courage
,
murtherers
of
Comfort
,
&
the
extinguishers
of
all
peace
in
conscience
or
ioy
in
spirit
.
Whereas
to
,
a
resolved
soule
,
to
a
Constant
Christian
,
even
in
the
pangs
of
death
he
then
chiefly
,
seemeth
to
be
the
liuely
and
louely
image
of
his
maker
,
having
his
reason
and
vnderstanding
cleere
,
his
will
and
affections
ordinate
,
his
sensuall
faculties
not
only
restrained
from
evill
,
but
constrained
to
be
serviceable
to
do
good
:
and
howsoever
his
corporall
state
be
in
an
Ecclipse
,
&
wanteth
as
much
in
sense
,
as
it
aboundeth
in
sorrow
,
yet
his
soule
is
triumphing
,
&
reioycing
in
God
his
Saviour
,
&
ready
to
sing
his
Nunc
dimittis
,
as
this
Princely
Saint
.
12
And
now
death
Natures
midwife
,
began
her
final
act
of
dissolution
,
&
this
fatall
day
,
friday
,
(
a
day
,
which
long
before
,
his
highnesse
accounted
dismall
)
proved
to
be
the
day
of
blacknesse
and
darknesse
,
a
day
of
clowds
&
gloomishnes
,
there
never
was
since
the
time
of
Christ
the
like
;
and
Lord
,
let
never
be
the
like
any
more
,
after
it
,
even
to
the
yeares
of
many
generations
!
Now
the
infallible
signes
of
vnsatisfiable
death
approaching
,
the
disiointing
Cōvulsions
,
&
trembling
agonies
came
vpon
him
,
Nature
wasting
like
a
dying
Lampe
,
&
in
that
day
,
his
starres
begin
to
be
darkned
,
the
keepers
of
his
house
to
tremble
,
the
strong
men
to
bow
themselues
,
the
grinders
to
cease
,
they
that
looke
out
of
the
window
to
be
darkened
.
Now
the
siluer
Cord
is
ready
to
be
loosed
,
the
golden
pitcher
breaking
at
the
fountaine
,
and
the
wheele
breaking
at
the
Cesterne
.
Now
,
now
HEE
is
going
to
his
long
home
,
and
the
mourners
go
about
in
the
street
.
O
miseram
faciem
orbis
!
O
wofull
countenance
of
a
Court
,
that
now
appeared
!
the
Eccho
and
reclamation
of
sighes
,
sobs
,
the
throwes
of
sorrow
,
of
outcryes
,
and
vnspeakeable
Lamentation
,
sounded
not
only
in
that
wofull
house
,
and
therein
in
the
Chambers
of
death
,
but
in
all
the
Court
,
all
the
city
,
men
passing
along
by
each
other
,
as
if
they
had
bin
come
out
of
the
graues
.
Teares
groanes
,
heavy
lookes
,
dissheveld
lockes
,
and
lamentations
filling
all
places
;
speach
,
&
life
,
seeming
to
be
strangers
to
men
,
the
saddest
time
,
&
sablest
world
,
that
ever
our
Country
knew
.
It
exceeds
invention
to
imagine
it
,
and
is
able
to
cast
a
perpetual
dampe
vpon
the
vnderstanding
,
that
shal
conceiue
it
:
my
hand
,
pen
,
heart
,
all
my
faculties
sinke
vnder
this
burden
,
I
lacke
Agamemnons
vaile
.
The
delight
of
mankinde
,
&
expectation
of
nations
is
expiring
,
where
,
how
,
whence
is
Comfort
,
to
bee
had
?
I
shal
never
forget
ever
to
pity
those
poore
souls
,
with
wringing
hands
&
breaking
harts
,
whose
shrikes
,
and
outcries
are
able
to
pearce
Adamant
:
Are
sins
more
prevailing
,
then
prayers
?
Where
is
the
power
and
violence
of
praier
?
which
opened
,
and
shut
,
and
sealed
vp
heaven
,
brought
downe
fire
,
and
staied
the
sunne
in
the
firmament
.
No
hope
,
no
helpe
,
all
miracles
ceased
?
No
balme
in
Gilead
,
nothing
in
the
strength
and
extracts
of
nature
,
no
Elixir
in
Art
to
recover
,
to
repaire
this
irrecoverable
consumption
?
It
was
providence
,
that
disposed
it
,
and
doth
silence
question
.
But
was
the
charge
so
strict
,
as
that
the
great
Tyrant
Death
would
smite
,
neither
small
,
nor
great
,
but
Israels
Prince
,
the
Ioshua
,
Iosiah
,
Maiesties
first
borne
,
Religions
second
?
Must
the
Rose
be
blemished
,
before
it
was
fully
bloomed
?
or
the
fig
tree
blasted
,
before
it
was
time
to
bring
forth
fruit
?
O
crueltie
of
that
savage
monster
Death
!
O
Death
,
thou
child
of
sinne
,
and
father
of
confusion
!
hast
thou
not
already
triumphed
enough
,
in
funerall
solemnities
?
thy
applause
in
the
cries
of
widdowes
,
and
orphans
,
by
the
disorder
and
desolation
of
thy
vniversall
dominion
;
that
as
many
ages
,
as
haue
beene
since
the
world
was
created
,
so
many
conquests
,
hast
thou
obtained
,
and
yet
thy
all
devouring
throat
,
the
graue
vnsatisfied
?
But
againe
I
see
the
finger
of
providence
imposing
silence
,
forbidding
question
.
Yet
my
eares
tingle
with
the
dolefull
tune
of
that
wofull
time
.
The
bell
now
calleth
him
to
the
triumphant
Church
;
by
day
Death
durst
not
approach
,
by
night
he
vndertakes
this
deed
of
darknesse
.
The
redoubled
sound
of
that
solemne
,
but
sorrowfull
knell
strooke
all
hearts
,
with
a
chilling
,
killing
feare
;
now
,
hope
was
without
helpe
;
the
ayer
was
troubled
with
the
scriching
outcries
,
and
all
knees
bowed
,
all
faces
plentifully
bedewed
,
the
world
in
an
extasie
,
as
if
some
especiall
part
of
nature
were
dissoluing
.
Now
were
the
last
prayers
of
the
family
,
who
without
intercession
were
all
that
day
assisted
by
many
honourable
,
and
infinite
lamentably
sobbing
soules
;
whereof
the
Chappell
,
vestry
,
entry
,
and
whole
Court
were
ful
,
all
ioyning
with
strong
cries
,
weeping
eyes
,
&
bleeding
hearts
did
commend
his
blessed
soule
,
to
be
bathed
in
the
pretious
blood
of
his
Saviour
.
And
so
not
long
after
quietly
,
patiently
,
blessedly
he
expired
,
and
yeelded
his
spirit
into
the
hands
of
his
immortall
maker
.
Even
then
,
when
that
inauspicious
aspect
of
the
planets
did
portend
some
ominous
disaster
,
when
only
Saturne
and
Iupiter
appeared
aboue
,
and
Sol
,
Mars
,
Mercury
,
Venus
,
and
Luna
lay
hid
below
,
not
daring
to
be
witnesses
of
that
heavie
and
horrid
effect
of
that
horrible
coniunction
.
Learne
hence
all
yee
firre
trees
,
that
Cedars
may
fal
,
and
Princes
the
Gods
of
the
earth
may
die
.
They
are
men
,
helplesse
men
,
mortall
men
,
corruptible
men
,
in
the
frames
of
their
bodies
,
and
in
the
cogitations
of
their
minds
.
Happy
therefore
is
he
,
that
hath
the
God
of
Iacob
for
his
refuge
!
Happy
is
hee
,
whose
hope
is
in
the
Lord
his
God!
And
blessed
be
our
God
,
who
in
the
vnconceavable
wisdome
of
his
divine
wil
,
hath
freed
blessed
Prince
HENRY
from
the
fetters
of
the
flesh
!
Who
when
he
had
shewed
him
the
world
,
to
loath
the
world
,
enfranchised
him
from
this
earthly
prison
and
dungeon
,
and
possessed
him
now
with
greater
libertie
.
Where
being
exalted
in
greatest
glory
,
hee
is
nowe
in
his
presence
,
where
there
is
fulnesse
of
ioy
,
and
at
his
right
hand
pleasure
for
euermore
.
Where
there
is
an
immortall
,
immarcessible
crowne
,
wherewith
already
hee
is
adorned
,
in
that
kingdome
of
continuance
,
where
sorrow
shal
never
be
felt
,
sicknesse
never
be
feared
;
where
ioy
cannot
be
touched
with
sadnesse
,
nor
health
tainted
with
sicknesse
;
where
there
is
all
good
,
without
any
evill
,
and
all
trouble
,
all
punishment
,
and
all
feare
is
done
away
.
And
finally
,
blessed
bee
that
God
,
who
hath
out
of
his
fountaine
of
goodnesse
once
againe
opened
the
windowes
of
the
mornings
mercy
and
restored
a
new
light
to
those
sorrowfull
soules
,
who
sate
in
darknesse
and
in
the
shadow
of
death
;
and
hath
restored
the
voice
of
ioy
,
and
gladnesse
vnto
our
most
gracious
K.
IAMES
,
and
the
family
of
St
IAMES
,
by
the
setling
of
that
house
and
the
happy
shining
of
our
day
starre
CHARLEMAINE
,
the
apparant
heire
of
his
blessed
Brothers
vertues
and
titles
,
the
Parallel
of
former
,
and
absolute
patterne
of
future
Princes
,
whose
stemme
and
stock
long
may
it
florish
vnder
the
branches
of
those
Royall
Cedars
,
his
renowned
Parents
;
that
so
with
much
happinesse
,
his
Highnesse
may
bring
forth
his
fruit
in
due
season
,
to
all
good
mens
good
,
and
Gods
great
glory
.
Amen
.
