Fruit.
The Woman 's tempted by the Serpents whiles , To eat the Fruit , she strait the Man beguiles . A Cherub chaseth them with Sword and Fire , Out of fair Edens Garden in great Ire .
I
imagine
to

in

seen
her

to
my

I

Ah

Friend

Husband

would

know
what
hath
happened
since
I
was
absent
from
you
?
Not
far
from
hence
I
met
a
Serpent
of
a
Prodigious
and
extraordinary
shape
,
he
also
spake
to
me
,
contrary
to
the
use
of
Beasts
.
For
my
part
I
did
believe
that
he
was
a
Prodigy
of
Heaven
,
and
an
Angel
which
God
sent
me
under
the
form
of
a
Serpent
.
He
shewed
me
the
Tree
of
Life
,
and
promised
me
,
that
if
I
would
Eat
of
is's
Fruit
,
I
should
become
like
unto
God
,
and
have
a
perfect
knowledge
of
Good
and
Evil
;
I
told
him
,
that
God
had
forbid
it
us
upon
pain
of
death
;
but
he
protested
to
me
,
that
on
the
contrary
this
fruit
hath
the
Iuice
of
Life
and
Immortality
:
For
my
part
I
have
gather'd
it
.
I
have
eaten
of
it
,
and
I
intreat
you
to
tast
as
little
of
it
as
you
please

Dear

we

But

I
am
afraid
,

these
Souls
a

:
〈◊〉
more

〈◊〉

〈…〉

Tell

then
I
pray
the●
,
th●●
thou

,
〈◊〉
Sister
,
and
●hat
I
〈◊〉

Brother
▪
●o
th●
〈…〉
may
●●pe
by
this
〈◊〉
Stratagem
.
Nephew
I
pree-thee
remember
,
that
●●therto
I
have
not
treated
thee
as
an
Vncle
,
but
rather
as
a
Brother
;
what
a
scandal
would
it
be
,
if
we
should
begin
to
live
together
either
like
Strangers
,
or
else
as
Enemies
?
I
had
rather
lose
all
the
goods
of
the
World
▪
than
that
of
thy
Friendship
:
But
I
see
clearly
that
these
Sheepherds
and
mercenary
Friends
,
are
the
Person●
who
endeavour
to
engage
our
passions
with
their
interests
:
it
would
then
be
more
prud●n●ly
done
to
sever
our
Flocks
,
than
to
disunite
our
minds
,
and
therefore
dear
Nephew
take
what
you
please
.
of
thou
goest
to
the
right
hand
,
I
will
take
the
left
:
and
if
the
left
,
I
will
pass
to
the
right
.
My
God!
These
are
generous
,
and
heroick
thoughts
;
to
hear
them
,
I
conceive
my self
to
be
in
those
golden
Ages
when
men
carry'd
their
hearts
on
their
Lips
,
Crowns
of
Olive-branches
on
their
heads
,
hornes
of
plenty
in
their
hands
,
their
eyes
in
each
part
of
their
Body
,
and
the
Chains
of
a
holy
friendship
as
bracelets
and
collers
of
Gold
;
Finally
where
the
goods
of
the
Earth
were
troden
under
foot
as
common
to
all
men
.
And
this
caused
that
plenty
of
all
things
was
carry'd
every
where
upon
a
Triumphant
Chariot
,
casting
Gold
and
Silver
to
all
that
would
but
take
the
pains
to
gather
it
.
God
himself
Governed
the
Reigns
of
this
fortunate
Chariot
,
and
as
if
he
had
a
purpose
to
make
every
man
a
Monarch
of
the
Vniverse
,
he
said
the
very
same
to
them
as
to
when
the
love
of
Concord
and
Peace
had
sever'd
him
from
Abraham rescues Lot with Men and Spoyls , ●rom diverse Kings whom he in Battle foils . Melchisede●k ●rings Abra'm Bread and Wine , And Abraham payes him Tenths of Corn and Wine .
After
this
God
made
come
out
of
his
Pavillion
,
and
then
not
satisfied
with
having
promised
him
a
Posterity
numerous
as
the
Sands
of
the
Sea
,
he
shewed
him
the
Heavens
,
with
promise
that
the
number
of
his
Children
should
equal
the
Planets
and
Stars
of
the
Firmament
.
Adding
to
him
afterwards
,
that
suddainly
he
should
have
a
Son
by
his
dear
who
should
be
the
Heir
of
his
poss●ssions
,
and
the
Ornament
of
his
Family

Heavenly

in

Ah

I

No

m●st

of
my
displeasure

shar●

me

hast
thou
not
Eyes

pi●rce
from

And
is
not

abl●

tho●
t●en

s●e

Ah!
What
great
God!
Could
it
possibly
happen
that
thy
indignation
should
be
Blind
,
and
that
thy
Thunderbolts
should
equally
fall
upon
the
Iust
and
Sinners
?
God
of
Goodness
canst
thou
behold
the
innocent
in
the
midst
of
punishments
,
without
some
touch
of
Compassion
?
Alas
Lord
!
Wilt
thou
not
pardon
this
Criminall
City
,
if
in
c●se
but
fifty
innocent
Persons
be
found
in
it
;
is
not
this
a
Motive
powerfull
enough
to
invite
thee
unto
Commiseration
?
Ah!
Let
it
be
never

said
,
that
thy
just
providence
,
which
extends
it self
over
all
the
Empires
of

Vertue

so
in

she
was

unto

demanding

expected
the
stroak
of

,
when
his
Father
(
as
it
is
very
probable
)
began
to
acquaint
him
with
the
secret
of
his
happy
lot
.
my
most
dear
Son
,
thou
didst
ask
me
at
the
foot
of
the
Mountain
,
where
was
the
Victim
of
our
Sacrifice
.
I
answered
thee
,
that
God
woul●
provide
one
;
his
Paternal
Goodness
hath
done
it
,
and
his
will
i●
that
thou
must
be
the
Victim
,
and
I
the
Priest
:
it
is
very
true
,
that
thou
art
the
object
of
my
sweetest
hopes
,
and
that
I
should
look
on
thee
as
the
support
of
my
●ouse
;
but
it
is
in
God
we
must
place
our
only
hope
;
it
is
he
that
serves
for
a
Basis
and
Piller
to
all
fortunes
,
and
it
is
his
sage
Providence
,
which
holds
in
its
hands
good
and
evil
,
favours
and
disgraces
,
Life
and
Death
.
Dye
then
cheerfully
my
dear
Child
,
and
rest
assured
that
I
would
willingly
put
my self
in
thy
place
,
if
God
had
so
ordained
.
I
adore
his
will
,
and
I
am
too
happy
to
serve
as
an
instrument
unto
his
commands
?
As
for
thee
my
poor
Son
,
I
had
very
constant
proofs
of
thy
sweet
disposition
,
and
if
I
had
not
often
tryed
how
obedient
and
pliable
thou
art
unto
Gods
will
and
mine
,
I
should
endeavour
more
efficaciously
to
perswade
thee
;
but
it
would
be
fruitless
,
and
it
is
from
Gods
goodness
and
thy
constancy
I
hope
for
the
Grace
of
being
inabled
to
offer
and
immolate
thee
with
my
own
Hands
.
But
what
will
be
the
issue
,
will
not
all
the
Angels
of
Heaven
who
look
upon
this
Sacrifice
put
some
Victim
,
in
place
?

were

And
wherefore
would
my

know
this
secret
,
whom
God
commands
me
to

,
is
't
as
you
oft
attempted

betray
me
to
my

.
Was
it
not
once

attempted
,
nor
can
you
be

May
I
believe
this
and
that
nothing

if
I
might
methinks
I
would
not
hide
the
secret
on
which
my

depend

from
one
who
sits
so
high

I'm

tell
the

secret

yet
love
charms
it
from

though
I
tremble
at
the

where
it

for

all
this

;
sure
Angry
Heaven
wou'd
not

Come

and
let

cast

his

that

I
am
a
Hebrew
that
fled
from
the
Face
of
him
that
ma●e
the
Vniverse
,
who
lives
for
ever
,
and
is
only
God
in
Heaven
and
Earth
;
who
rouses
or
makes
still
the
Seas
at
pleasure
:
'T
is
I
,
't
is
I
that
have
occasion●d
all
that
threatens
you
;
no
way
there
is
for
safety
,
but
by
casting
me
into
the
Swelling
Flood
.
In
vain
you
strive
to
get
a
shore
:
nor
is
there
safety
but
in
what
I
have
advised
.
So
now
he
's
doust
in
the
Rough
Billows
:
Ha!
a
monst●rous
Whale
has
suck'd
him
in
,
an●
now
the
Winds
are
still
,
the
Ocean
leaves
to
Rage
:
the
Clouds
are
ch●st
away
,
bright
day
appears
;
and
all
our
Leaks
are
stop'd
by
Miracle
.
We
know
no
God
nor
Goddess
but
the
God
of
whom
with
fear
and
R●verence
we
Serve
,
and
to
no
other
dare
we
,
can
we
,
will
we
bow
.
All
this
w●
know
,
nor
wou'd
not
,
could
we
help
it
,
disobey
or
disoblige
the
King
;
but
in
the
thing
be
now
requ●res
,
we
dare
not
be
complya●t
.
The
mighty
God
,
in
whose
dread
Presence
now
we
stand
,
must
be
Obeyed
rather
than
Man
;
we
must
not
Rob
him
of
his
Honour
and
give
it
to
an
other
.
Our
great
Resolves
,
O
King
are
past

and
here
we
stand
,
do
with

as
you
please
:
Your

,
mighty
Monarck
,
frights
us
not

nor
are
we
carefull
to
reply
:
For
if
the
mighty
God
whom
we
Adore
,
the
God
who
made
all
things
,
and
〈◊〉
whose
will
the
World
and
all
that
move
in
it
depend
,
〈◊〉
let
us
fall
to
Glorifie
his
Name
;
and
in
's
Eternal
Wisdom
thinks
it
not
convenient
to
rescue
us
from
the
devouring
flames
;
know
not
withstanding
,
we
'll
patiently
expire
for
his
dear
sake
,
rather
than
prostrate
our selves
before
base
Idols
,
the
vain
work
of
mortal
hands
.
We
smile
to
see
a
Monarck
storm
〈◊〉
against
those
that
are
regardless
of
his
Rage
,
and
stand
prepared
to
bear
what
er'e
his
fury
can
inflict
;
though
we
in
ought
have
not
transgrest
against
him
.

when
as

decended

I

Great

steps
thus
wait

I
should
not
be
what
I
am
,
if
I
forfeited
the
qu●lity
of
a
f●ithfull
Servant
,
and
of
a
Person
to
whom
the
honour
and
remembrance
of
the
favours
I
have
received
from
him
,
is
a
thousand
times
more
precious
than
Life
.
If
I
have
been
sold
,
it
was
only
for
my
Innocency
,
and
the
chains
of
my
Captivity
could
never
force
the
constancy
an
Hebrew
ought
to
have
in
the
way
of
virtue
.
I
am
Son
,
and
my
Actions
shall
never
●ely
my
Birth
,
I
am
a
Servant
,
I
ought
to
dye
for
fidelity
:
Yo●r
Husband
trusts
me
with
all
his
Goods
,
and
with
all
his
Wealth
,
which
the
favour
of
the
King
,
and
his
own
meri●s
have
b●stowed
on
him
;
he
reserved
only
to
himself
the
soly
Enjoying
you
:
it
is
not
for
me
then
to
r●vish
from
him
what
is
due
by
so
many
titles
.
Command
me
with
Iustice
,
and
I
will
serve
you
with
sincerity
;
perform
all
that
you
ought
,
and
I
will
omit
no
part
of
my
duty
to
you
.
Keep
your self
within
the
Laws
of
Marri●ge
,
and
leave
me
in
the
duties
of
my
condition
.
I
should
be
ungratefull
if
I
abused
the
favours
of
my
Master
,
I
should
be
a
thief
if
I
stole
away
his
fairest
goods
,
and
no
death
could
be
cruel
enough
to
punish
me
,
if
I
should
attempt
on
that
which
is
more
dear
to
him
than
life
.
All
you
flames
can
find
in
me
but
a
heart
of
water
and
yce
,
and
all
your
eyes
cannot
inthrall
the
liberty
of
my
min●
,
and
your
rigors
will
never
molifie
a
soul
on
which
God
hath
imprinted
his
love
and
fear
.
Know
then
that
I
would
rather
choose
to
dye
free
from
blame
,
than
to
live
a
complice
in
your
disloyalty
.
I
prefer
my
bondage
if
it
be
innocent
,
before
all
unjust
Powers
;
and
what
misfortune
soever
befall
me
,
I
shall
be
too
happy
▪
if
I
remain
innocent
.
It
was
in
the
power
of
my
Brethren
to
sell
my
Body
,
but
they
could
not
ingage
my
Soul
;
I
may
serve
without
prostituting
my self
,
and
my
glory
will
ever
be
illustrious
enough
if
I
shall
do
no
dishonourable
act
,
and
unworthy
of
my
Extraction
.
In
fine
,
I
adore
a
God
who
hath
most
pure
eyes
,
and
should
all
Creatures
be
blind
,
it
satisfies
me
,
that
he
be
the
witness
of
my
actions
;
I
reverence
all
his
decrees
,
and
if
all
the
Iudges
of
●he
World
could
authorise
vice
,
it
would
comfort
me
to
have
a
God
alwayes
armed
to
punish
them
.
How
can
you
wish
me
then
to
bring
Adultery
into
your
Family
,
and
to
change
your
bed
,
which
ought
to
be
the
Altar
of
your
glory
,
into
an
infamous
Pile
?
No
,
no
Madam
,
either
leave
honour
to
me
with
life
,
or
take
from
me
my
life
,
&
leave
me
my
honour
.
The
Devil
of
She
will
peradventure
say
she
is
your
Mistriss
,
and
that
you
ought
to
obey
her
;
And
that
if
she
affect
you
,
you
cannot
hate
her
;
and
if
she
seek
you
,
you
have
no
reason
to
flye
from
her
;
she
will
conjure
you
to
tell
her
,
what
in
her
displeaseth
you
.
Since
she
omits
nothing
that
may
content
you
,
and
without
injustice
you
cannot
refuse
her
one
single
favour
she
expects
from
you
;
especially
she
being
ready
,
on
her
part
,
to
grant
all
that
you
can
ask
of
her
.
There
is
no
colour
,
she
will
not
employ
to
represent
unto
you
her
passion
;
and
her
Eyes
though
silent
,
will
swear
to
you
,
that
they
have
often
enough
spoken
to
you
,
when
her
mouth
durst
not
utter
a
word
:
that
if
it
were
possible
,
she
would
believe
that
she
hath
by
her
words
manifested
to
you
all
the
thoughts
of
her
Soul
,
when
they
might
have
been
kept
secret
:
Besides
,
she
will
flatter
you
,
saying
,
you
have
refused
her
that
out
of
prudence
,
which
now
you
ought
to
grant
her
through
love
and
goodness
.
Moreover
,
if
you
fear
any
thing
,
she
will
assure
you
that
she
hath
foreseen
all
that
may
expose
you
unto
danger
.
In
fine
,
she
will
intreat
,
that
if
she
hath
no
fortunes
in
the
World
,
which
are
not
at
your
disposure
,
you
would
yet
receive
her
respect
and
affections
to
render
you
mor●
absolute
and
independent
,
concluding
by
all
these
reasons
,
that
you
must
at
last
satisfie
her
,
either
by
violence
,
or
sweetnesse
,
and
that
she
will
have
either
honour
or
life
,
death
or
consent
.

The

but
they
go
before
us
Have
I
not
lived
with
you
these
many
years
,
even
when
wall-breaking
Famine
bared
the
sun-burnt
Fields
,
and
Men
as
well
as
Beasts
(
by
thousands
)
fell
,
to
fat
the
Bosom
of
our
Common
Mother
.
Now
—
why
—
Can
you
once
imagine
that
want
can
cause
my
love
to
wast
,
no
,
for
your
own
,
and
my
dead
sake
,
I
'll
love
you
still
,
and
render
you
●he
Duty
that
becomes
a
Daughter
in
Law
.
I
have
already
cast
the
business
in
my
Mind
,
and
am
resolved
,
that
Winters
chilling
Storms
,
nor
Summers
scorching
beat
attended
with
the
sharp
Contests
of
poverty
and
pining
want
,
shall
never
part
us
;
Death
it self
in
all
his
dismal
shapes
is
not
of
force
to
shake
my
fixed
determination
.
If
upon
some
bleak
Mountains
top
,
whose
covering
is
Snow
and
Globes
of
Solid
Ice
,
where
Winters
lasting
Tyranny
still
Reigns
,
you
should
be
forced
〈◊〉
make
your
Bed
,
I
'de
there
repose
:
This
Arm
should
be
your
Pillow
,
whilst
your
Daughter
,
your
obedie●●
froze
to
your
side
Let
that
not
trouble
my
dear
Adopted
Mother
;
for
when
unf●iendly
Death
with
his
cold
Icy
hand
,
shall
grasp
your
Life
,
I
'll
mourn
much
like
a
Widdow
Turtle
,
till
in
floods
of
swelling
Grief
I
'm
wasted
to
Eternity
;
and
then
our
bodies
shall
not
be
disjoyned
;
but
in
〈◊〉
Grave
we
'll
lie
,
till
our
returning
Souls
shall
wake
〈◊〉
drowsie
courses
;
and
hand
in
hand
we
take
our
way
to
Heaven
.
Your
kind
Expressions
are
too
large
a
retribution
for
what
I
have
resolved
;
but
see
the
Morning
Dawn
salutes
the
World
:
let
's
lose
no
time
,
but
strait
begin
our
Iourney
to
the
wish'd
No
haughty
man
,
't
is
not
enough
;
the
is
displeased
with
such
small
Vengeance
.
In
vain
thou
urgest
such
ab●mination
,
such
Sacrifices
would
be
odious
in
the
Nostrils
of
that
God
Who
dwells
between
the
whose
f●erc●
wrath
can
be
appeased
with
no
less
Sacrifice
than
thy
curst
Life
.
I
know
him
,
who
in
sparing
you
and
your
unlawful
Spoils
has
made
himself
a
Rebel
to
the
King
of
Kings
.
In
vain
are
all
Appeals
to
Mortal
Man
,
when
God
,
the
mighty
God
,
in
whose
strong
Hands
is
all
the
Breath
of
Life
;
has
doom'd
you
dead
.
Your
Treasure
perish
with
you
;
not
all
the
〈◊〉
of
the
Vniverse
shall
rescue
you
from
Death
.
All
this
I
see
,
and
as
far
as
humane
fr
ail●●
can
bear
sway
,
am
moved
;
yet
must
not
,
dare
not
,
〈◊〉
not
disobey
my
God
.
In
vain
is
all
you
urge
,
and
this
last
●aying
whets
my
Anger
more
,
when
I
consider
how
your
blood-bedaubed
Hands
have
made
the
Nations
mourn
;
how
your
destroying
Sword
has
raised
the
Widdows
cries
and
tender
Infants
sighs
;
lo
!
the
many
slaughters
you
have
made
in
borders
,
rendred
thousands
c●ildless
;
wherefore
the
self
same
Fate
be
on
the
Womb
that
bare
you
,
whilst
thus
—
thus
—
I
execute
Gods
wrath
on
thy
pernicious
Head

Thus
what
left
undone
,
my
aged
hand
finished
,
and
atton'd
for
My
Lord
,
I
dare
,
though
not
presuming
on
the
Arm
of
flesh
,
but
totally
relying
on
the
Living
God
,
who
has
delivered
me
from
the
devouring
Rage
of
〈◊〉
and
of
Bears
;
nor
dare
I
now
doubt
the
assistance
of
his
power
to
b●ing

Pride
of

bold
Philistine

my

I
must
confess
his

my

his
strength

on
whom
the

depends
,
is
capable
by

,
to
quell
the

,
and

:
with
him
there
's
nought

Alas
my
Lord
,
it

not
,
for
with
these
few
stones
I
'le
quell
your

make

I
no
other
God
than
and
accursed
I
should
not

resolved
to
the
Combat

Not
all
the
bloody
deeds
thou
hast
done
,
can
fright
the

the
Man
that
h●t

so
great
a

that
henceforth
haughty
man
may
not
so
boldly
trust
in
Arms
of

Come
to
me
,
and
I
will
give
thy
Flesh
to
the
Fowls
of
the
Air
,
and
to
the
Beasts
of
the
Field
:
In
vain
are
all
thy
unregarded
Threats
;
A●though
I
'll
not
be
long
e're
I
advance
to
t●y
destruction
;
for
Nor
will
I
fail
to
meet
your
utmost
fury
;
and
thus
I
'll
thunder
on
●our
lofty
Front
,
and
bring
you
to
the
ground
.
Now
Monster
,
now
know
there
's
a
God
in
and
as
I
promised
,
thus
I
take
thy
head
;
—
'T
is
done
—
done
with
the
Sword
thou
threatenedst
mine
:
And
thus
I
bear
it
to
the
King
,
taking
thy
Armour
as
my
lawful
prize
.
Yet
God
,
the
God
of
is
able
〈◊〉
defend
me
from
his
rage
,
seeing
I
have
done
nothin●
that
deserves
his
hate
;
but
in
the
uprightness
of
my
heart
go
in
and
out
before
him
.
I
know
it
,
my
dear
Love
,
my
happiness
,
and
all
I
prize
on
this
side
Heaven
;
but
dare
not
think
that
such
virtue
,
tenderness
,
and
innate
goodness
,
can
be
wrought
upon
to
prove
a
Traytoress
to
him
,
that
can
admire
nothing
but
the
eternal
maker
of
the
glorious
Vniverse
,
above
her
.
And
ever
will
,
I
hope
,
my
Ioy.
—
Nay
,
nay
,
I
dare
not
doubt
it
;
it
were
sin
once
to
mistrust
your
Virtue
.
It
shall
never
sink
into
my
thou●hts
,
that
will
betray
her
All
this
,
and
all
the
Splendid
Pomp
the
haughtiest
Monarch
can
bestow
,
I
have
considered
;
yet
cannot
once
Imagine
they
can
move
my
Love
to
entertain
so
base
a
thought
.
Nor
can
this
make
me
once
imagine
,
my
dear
happiness
,
that
you
would
give
me
to
his
Fury
;
though
in
this
case
I
'de
willingly
meet
his
fierce
wrath
,
when
high
,
to
save
my
Love
from
such
a
danger
:
There
is
no
Torment
so
outragious
,
that
I
would
not
with
a
smile
embrace
,
look
pleasantly
on
Death
,
and
tamely
bow
my
head
at
your
rough
Fathers
Feet
,
whilst
his
blood-thirsty
Sword
cut
off
my
dayes
—
Thank
the
hand
that
took
my
Life
for
yours
,
and
bless
the
King
for
such
a
Favour
with
my
dying
breath
.
O!
you
ravish
me
with
too
much
joy
;
I
was
before
confined
,
and
now
't
is
doubly
done
:
no
more
but
to
our
Chambers
,
where
the
first
fruits
of
our
Love
were
reaped
,
and
there
I
will
tell
my
Love
how
much
I
am
transported
.
You
know
,
my
Lord
,
that
Men
in
danger
ever
dread
,
especially
when
they
suspect
the
danger
near
.
Know
you
not
that
your
Father
seeks
my
Life
;
and
are
not
you
●is
darling
Son
.
Let
my
Lord
pardon
when
thus
low
I
beg
it
?
If
I
have
some
doubts
that
your
Commission
is
to
bring
me
to
your
Fathers
presence
.
Forgive
me
,
my
rash
fear
,
my
Lord
,
and
I
'le
not
dare
to
fear
again
,
I
must
confess
,
your
love
to
me
has
been
so
great
,
that
I
condemn
my selfe
for
once
so
much
as
harbouring
a
suspicion
,
that
you
e're
intended
to
harm
me
.
O
boundless
Love
!
how
can
I
,
how
shall
I
deserve
it
!
What
recompence
is
capable
to
make
that
in
the
smallest
measure
can
requite
the
Heir
Apparent
to
his
Fathers
Scepter
—
thus
low
.
O
my
dear
Lord
;
You
make
me
blush
,
and
at
the
same
time
to
weep
for
joy
,
to
hear
what
you
express
;
such
faith
,
such
constancy
,
such
boundless
Love
,
was
never
known
from
man
to
man
before
.
O!
My
Lord
no
more
;
I
am
confirmed
that
I
am
happy
in
so
brave
a
Friend
,
happy
as
Man
can
wish
;
and
must
make
it
still
the
business
of
my
Life
,
to
recompence
so
great
a
favour
.
Whatever
my
dear
Friend
can
wish
,
I
'le
do

there
be

Suit
to
You
will
oblige
me
much
,
if
my
Expectations
are
but
answered
,
't
is
a
small
Request
,
yet
prized
by
me
at
no
low
rate
.
Have
you
not
a
Vineyard
joyning
to
the
Palace
of
your
King
.
'T
is
sure
you
cannot
but
be
much
delighted
with
the
pleasant
divertisement
,
since
you
s●em
so
much
transported
with
relating
it
.
But
to
urge
my
meaning
home
;
suppose
your
King
should
be
desirous
to
possess
it
,
Would
without
grudging
part
with
what
does
render
him
such
pleasure
.
Nay
,
let
not
be
mistaken
asks
it
not
without
a
price
;
Its
value
you
shall
have
in
Ophirs
of
finest
Gold
,
or
else
a
Vineyard
far
exceeding
it
in
Circuit
,
and
abounding
more
in
Trees
,
producing
Nectar
and
Ambrosia
.
Then
I
have
sued
in
vain
,
and
you
but
tri●le
with
your
Prince
;
consider
who
demanded
it
,
and
mourn
for
your
rash
refusal
.
O!
art
thou
found
in
all
thy
dazling
Pomp
and
Gallantry
,
thou
baneful
mischief
of
the
world
,
worst
of
things
,
whose
Whoredoms
and
prodigious
Witchcraft●
have
caused
Seed
so
long
to
mourn
under
the
Scourge
of
Heaven
,
and
polluted
all
the
Land
with
blood
of
Innocents
.
Yes
,
witness
the
consecrated
Priests
that
fell
●
Sacrifice
to
your
revenge
!
Witness
the
blood
of

the
many
mischiefs
more

wicked
Iezabel
ha●
done
,
causing
not
only
fall
,
but
and

who
slew
his
Master
In
vain
are
all
your
threats
;
your
power
's
too
short
to
execute
your
will
:
this
moment
ends
your
malice
,
with
your
life
,
that
so
the
Prophets
words
may
be
fullfill'd
.
—
Slaves
,
who
waits
there
!
—
Ha
,
A
Troop
of
Eunuchs
.
—
Yes
,
yes
,
fit
panders
for
a
lustful
Queen
!
Come
,
throw
your
gawdy
Mistriss
down
,
that
so
much
pride
in
falling
,
may
be
made
the
fluttering
sport
of
Winds
.
Dare
,
yes
!
He
dies
that
dare
gainsay
,
or
once
delay
what
I
command
.
—
Slaves
obey
,
or
Tortures
shall
force
out
your
wretched
lives
.
He
that
a
moment
longer
trifles
with
my
pleasure
,
shall
not
live
to
see
the
falling
Sun
.
So
,
't
is
as
I
wish'd
;
I
knew
the
fawning
slaves
durst
not
refuse
compliance
.
There
let
the
Pride
and
Bane
of
lie
trampled
till
I
take
possession
of
the
Kingdom
,
and
extinguish
'T
is
the
Decree
of
him
that
gave
you
life
,
and
has
preserved
you
to
this
day
;
by
him
I
am
commissioned
to
relate
the
doleful
message
,
and
command
you
to
prepare
for
immortality
.
Consider
Sir
,
that
you
was
born
to
dye
;
and
that
stern
death
claims
as
his
due
,
the
lives
of
Sons
,
as
forfeited
by
our
great
Parent
,
and
subjected
to
his
power
;
nor
can
the
glittering
vanities
,
in
whom
frail
men
too
often
put
their
confidence
,
keep
back
his
shaft
a
moment
,
when
his
Commission
is
to
seize
their
breath
;
therefore
let
not
the
King
delay
to
set
his
house
in
order

I
am

nor

Terror

therefore
be

O
King
,
and
do
as
I
have
bid
before
it
be
too
late
,
before
the
King
of

no

Your

of

therefore
consider
well
what
I
have

them
not
my

but
his
on
whom
the
breath
of

depends
:

so
great

in
Tears
I
take
my
leave

There
is
:
the
God
of
mercy
has
inclined
his
Ear
to
your
low
supplication
;
your
humility
has
conquer'd
his
displeasure
,
and
melted
▪
him
into
compassion
:
Fifteen

are
added
unto
your

of
confirmation

Al●●
,
great
Emperor

I
blush
to
think
that
ought
in
me
should
be
of

to
give
delight
to
him
,
whose
aweful
word
commands
so

at

must
confess
,
a
joy

seizes
every

that

thus
to
esteem
his

It

whatever
you

that

Lead
me

Lord
,
wheree're
you

;
for
your
sole
will
is
my
law
.
To
man
,
great
Sir
,
I
dare
not
bend
my
knee
▪
to
God
alone
that
Tribute
I
must
pay
;
to
him
both
heart
and
knee
I
bow
,
but
to
no
mortal
dare
presume
it
,
lest
I
rob
him
of
his
honour
.
'T
is
what
cannot
give
this
case
vain
is
all
you
urge
;
nor
dare
pass
such
Complements
There
is
a
God
that
limits
your
fierce
rage
,
that
can
in
the
midst
of
a●l
your
pride
,
bring
your
ambition
low
,
and
frustrate
all
your
wicked
purposes
;
nor
shall

to
move
him
to
compassionate

Captive
People
,
be
by
neglected

Prayers
and
Fasting
shall
be

throughout
the
scattered
Tribes
;
nor
must
the
Queens
endeavours
want
to
cross
the
purposes
of
this
blood-thirsty
man
▪
whose
fall
will
let
him
know
experimentally
,
there
is
a
God
that
can
correct
his
insolence
.
—
Yet
must
these
measures
speedily
be
put
in
execution
,
to
supersede
the
mischief
his
dire
malice
is
swelled
big
with
,
lest
innocence
should
suffer
for
what
is
unjustly
called
a
crime
in
me

then
will
haste
and
let
the

know
his
intentions

Iew.

Will
he
force
the

Ahasuerus

before

Yet
must
we
not
repine

since
it
is
the
pleasure
of
that
great
Omnipotent
who
made
us
out

breathed
into

from
whom
all
we
did

proceeded

darest
thou

monstrous

thy
breast

much
more
,
how
darest
thou
urge
me
to
such
damn'd
Impiety
?
Shall
on
whom
he
showred
his
favours
,
once
move
his
lips
,
though
in
the
softest
murmur
,
when
he
is
pleased
to
stay
his
giving
hand
,
or
call
back
what
he
gave
;
no
,
nothing
ever
shall
prompt
me
to
a
guilt
so
horrible
.
Whatever
he
inflicts
it
is
for
our
good
;
his
chastening
is
to
try
if
we
are
worthy
of
his
favours
;
nor
will
he
wound
beyond
what
he
designs
to
heal
.
His
mercies
are
past
numbring
,
which
in
the
midst
of
Iudgment
he
oft
calls
to
mind
,
and
makes
a
full
recompence
for
what
he
takes
away
;
therefore
ever
will
praise
,
and
with
just
adoration
bless
his
holy
name
;
nay
though
he
kill
me
,
yet
will
trust
in
him
;
and
with
dying
Arms
embrace
the
wounding
Shaft
sent
by
his
hand
to
let
out
life
.
All
you
have
said
is
my
resolve
,
no
pain
,
nor
loss
,
nor
scorn
,
shall
shake
my
dear
integrity
;
all
torments
witty
horror
can
invent
,
were
they
comprised
in
one
,
shall
never
break
my
constancy
,
or
make
me
prove
a
Rebel
to
the
King
of
Heaven
:
but
with
Faith
unmoved
will
trust
in
him
till
lifes
last
Sand
is
run
,
expecting
then
to
see
him
as
he
is
,
and

with

Yet
shall
not
be
comfortless
;
his

shall
yet
see
happy
days

O
help
,
help
,
help
for
Heavens
sake
!
I
wi●●
die
,
I
will
die
before
my
honour
.
O
spare
me
,
spa●●
me
!
Oh
,
Oh
,
Oh
wretched
,
wretched
me
!
what
shall
I
do
,
I
am
undone
,
undone
for
ever
.
O
never
,
never
will
I
hence
;
but
where
I
lost
my
honour
,
there
I
will
lose
my
Life
.
See
,
see
my
Bosom
bare
to
stand
your
utmost
fury
;
sheath
,
sheath
your
wellcome
Dagger
in
a
Breast
polluted
by
your
Breath
.
This
,
this
is
cruelty
beyond
degree
:
O
may
the
just
avenger
judge
my
cause
,
and
recompence
my
wrongs
upon
your
wicked
,
your
incestuous
head
,
that
all
such
Monsters
for
the
future
,
may
take
warning
by
your
fall
.
Hah
,
Rebel
,
are
you
taken
in
a
snare
?
H●w
strangely
ha●
eternal
providence
fast
hampered
him
,
whose
Life
with
eagerness
I
sought
?
I
have
considered
,
and
am
come
resolved
to
put
a
period
to
his
life
that
durst
rebell
against
a
too
indulgent
Father
,
and
with
impious
Arms
,
not
only
seek
●is
Crown
and
Life
,
but
trouble
peaceful
Israel
with
unexpected
War
.
In
vain
;
you
ask
a
favour
that
will
not
be
granted
.
—
No
,
the
King
is
too
indulgent
;
and
will
melt
in
mercy
towards
him
that
urged
his
ruine
,
and
pe●haps
may
be
inclin'd
to
hearken
to
your
protestations
of
future
obedience
;
and
in
pardo●ing
,
give
you
opportunity
to
reach
his
life
.
Therefore
Yes
Traytor
dare
,
and
came
r●solved
to
make
the
Rebel
bleed
;
to
let
out
that
rank
blood
that
has
infected
the
unstable
Tribes
.
I
will
hear
no
more
,
but
Thus
—
become
the
messenger
of
your
death
.
—
Thus
make
a
passage
for
y●ur
Rebel-Soul
.
So
,
I
have
cropt
the
bold
aspiring
Rebel
in
the
●l●om
of
all
his
glory
,
and
given
peace
to
Israel
.
Here
,
●ake
him
down
,
and
cast
him
in
this
deep
pit
;
the●
〈◊〉
his
Carkass
with
a
pile
of
massie
stones
,
that
so
〈◊〉
memory
may
be
forgot
.
My
Lord
;
you
cannot
love
,
nor
yet
admi●●
me
more
than
(
blushing
I
must
own
,
though
with
●
feeling
joy
)
my
fancy
feeds
on
you
.
'T
is
that
indeed
my
Lord
,
that
can
best
contri●but●
to
mans
felicity
;
for
where
it
is
absent
,
nothi●●
but
disorder
and
confus●●n
rule
.
A
Spring
indeed
that
flows
with
Nectar
and
Ambrosial
Ioys
,
more
than
our
hearts
are
capable
,
without
overflowing
to
receive
.
Although
they
are
;
yet
the
great
wise
disposer
of
the
worlds
affairs
so
orders
it
,
that
at
first
sight
their
hearts
do
mostly
move
in
a
sweet
har●ony
,
supplying
the
defect
of
tedious
Courtship
.
You
know
m●
Lord
,
what
G●ds
the
sons
of
worship
;
I
doubt
no●
but
you
have
heard
of
who
are
dreaded
through
the
Coast
of
seven
horn'd
hundred
pointed
plain
A●e
they
no
Gods
then
?
Sure
it
is
,
I
have
heard
th●m
speak
,
and
tell
s●range
things
.
Who
is
it
then
that
gu●rds
,
protects
and
guides
us
in
our
great
affairs
.
You
tell
me
wonders
,
such
as
never
entred
at
my
Ears
;
but
where
does
such
transcendent
excellency
dwell
?
What
place
is
capable
to
shrowd
such
Majesty
.
Wonderful
and
much
amazing
is
what
you
relate
,
nor
could
I
er'e
beleive
that
this
vast
Fabrick
could
so
so
many
thousand
years
continue
in
perpetual
Harmony
unguided
,
unsustained
,
nor
sinks
it
into
my
weak
Breast
,
●hat
Fate
or
chance
rules
all
below
,
but
that
each
stand
to
the
Law
of
over
ruling
Providence
.
My
Lord
shall
be
obeyed
,
i
'll
wade
no
fur●her
,
in
these
devious
deeps
,
but
at
an
awful
distance
revere
that
d●zling
brigh●ness
,
that
essential
good
who
shines
so
glorious
in
his
crea●ures
.
My
Lord
,
I
g●e
,
and
from
this
day
shall
make
it
my
chief
Care
to
contemplate
him
and
his
mighty
wonders
,
and
next
to
admire
the
man
I
love
.
Plainly
see
great
King
of
that
babling
Fame
has
not
been
over
lavish
,
as
too
oft
she
's
wont
,
in
setting
forth
theGl●ries
of
your
Court
such
Magnificence
as
every
where
appears
,
my
Eyes
in
all
their
tedious
search
never
viewed
before
:
'T
is
true
,
the
P●inces
Treasure
and
his
Mind
must
both
be
great
,
that
could
ere●t
such
glorious
Fabricks
.
It
seems
no
less
,
and
well
befits
a
Deity
,
●or
dare
the
Nations
round
you
boast
their
Gods
insh●ined
in
such
a
glorious
Pallace
.
'T
is
true
,
they
are
but
senseless
Images
,
take
them
simply
,
but
inspired
by
Powers
in●isible
,
they
tell
strange
wonders
,
and
point
at
the
Nations
Fates
.
And
is
he
then
the
highest
,
the
Supremest
Deity
.
How
!
Is
his
power
so
great
,
that
senseless
Creatures
can
be
capable
of
understanding
when
he
is
Angry
.
I
start
at
what
I
hear
,
and
am
amazed
—
But
say
great
King
,
in
whom
such
Wisdome
dwells
a●
to
inable
you
to
know
this
mighty
God
,
and
be
accquainted
with
his
will
;
are
there
not
second
Causes
that
produce
strange
visible
effects
.
Leaving
those
glorious
Spirits
far
above
the
reach
of
Mortal
Eye
;
let
us
contemplate
his
wonders
●isible
;
say
mighty
Monarch
by
what
secret
extinct
ebb
and
flow
the
briny
waves
?
why
shakes
the
Earth
?
say
why
the
Bellowing
Clouds
dart
flame
?
How
dreadfull
Comets
,
on
whose
horrid
hair
hang
pestilence
and
War
,
kindle
;
a●d
by
what
matter
fed
;
how
is
the
dayes
bright
Eye
eclipsed
;
and
why
does
the
Silver
Moon
in
the
midst
of
all
her
lustre
lose
her
light
at
times
?
and
where●ore
keep
those
Luminaries
their
unerring
course
through
the
twelve
signs
of
Heaven
?
say
,
say
most
sapient
King
,
proceed
these
not
from
second
causes
.
With
Ioy
I
would
hear
these
Misteries
unrevealed
.
Great
and
mysterious
are
the
words
you
relate
;
but
say
are
these
the
effects
of
second
causes
,
is
not
Nature
most
predominate
in
these
contingencies
.
Infini
tely
have
you
satisfied
me
hithe●to
,
yet
let
me
beg
you
would
proceed
to
what
remains
,
that
I
may
admire
still
more
the
donor
of
such
wisdom
.
How
strangely
am
I
pleased
at
what
I
hear
,
and
could
dwell
upon
this
theam
for
ever
;
admiring
next
to
him
that
gave
it
;
him
that
possesses
so
great
a
share
of
Wisdom
.
Thrice
happy
are
all
they
that
are
under
the
Guidance
of
such
a
Monarch
,
and
more
happy
they
that
are
attendant
on
you
,
and
have
their
delighted
Ears
still
filled
with
knowledge
.
Than
be
it
so
,
and
henceforth
shall
the
God
of
only
be
adored
by
her
,
who
has
with
Fear
and
Rev●rence
heard
of
his
mighty
wonders
;
nor
shall
●here
blaze
an
Altar
in
my
Kingdom
to
any
power
beside
;
for
he
alone
is
God
infinite
,
and
incomprehensible
.
All
thanks
be
returned
,
and
may
what
you
have
wished
return
an
hundred
fold
on
your
head
,
the
rest
my
presents
soon
shall
speak
.
With
joy
i
'le
be
conducted
by
the
wise
,
the
great
,
the
glorious
King
of
There was a certain rich man which was Cloathed in Purple , and fine Linen , and fared sum●tuously every day .
And there was a certain beggar , named Lazarus , which was laid at his Gate full of sores ,
And desiring to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich Mans Table : moreover , the Dogs came and licked his Sores .
And it came to pass that the beggar dyed , and was carried by the Angels into Abrahams bosom : the rich man also dyed , and was buried .
And in 〈…〉 in torments , and seeing Abraham 〈…〉 Lazarus in his bos●m , &c.
Hearken
therefore
now
,
and
I
will
speak
of
a
great
rich
man
,
that
flourished
here
on
Earth
.
(
as
a
learned
Divine
observes
)
Vita
assumpsit
mortem
,
ut
mors
vitam
acciperet
;
he
dyed
once
,
to
live
for
ever
.
What
poor
What!
lying
at
a
gate
▪
and
full
of
Sores
too
?
Would
not
this
rich
Man
afford
thee
some
out-house
to
ly
in
,
to
shroud
thee
from
storms
and
tempests
?
no
:
would
not
his

pitty
thee

no

for

Hadst

wouldest

Nothi●●

nothing

Nothing

that

What
shall
I
say
of
the
hardness
of
this
〈◊〉
rich
Mans
Heart
?
Let
me
speak
for
●his
rich
Man
;
yet
I
shall
but
one
well
observes
I
have
a
Message
unto
thee
,
O
thou
Rich
Man
,
from
the
great
God
of
Heaven
,
and
he
doth
desire
thee
that
thou
respect
the
Beggar
that
lyeth
at
thy
Gate
pained
with
Sores
,
pained
with
grief
,
and
even
starved
through
Hunger
:
And
I
beseech
thee
in
Gods
stead
,
that
thou
have
pity
on
this
Beggar
,
as
God
shall
have
Pity
,
Mercy
,
and
Compassion
on
thee
,
and
look
what
thou
layest
out
,
it
shall
be
paid
thee
again
.
But
he
answered
,
I
warrant
you
he
is
some
Runnagate
Rogue
,
and
so
long
as
he
can
be
maintained
by
such
easie
means
,
he
will
never
take
any
other
Trade
upon
him
:
Nay
,
but
good
Sir
let
it
please
you
only
to
behold
this
poor
Creature
;
which
suppose
it
were
granted
,
and
he
coming
to
the
Gate
where
this
wret●hed
object
lay
,
seing
him
bewrayed
with
Sores
,
betattered
with
Rags
,
and
the
Dogs
licking
him
,
stopping
his
Nose
with
a
squeamish
Face
,
and
disdainful
look
,
began
to
say
unto
him
:
But
he
replyed
But
he
with
an
angry
look
disdaining
and
so
stopping
his
Nose
from
the
scent
,
and
his
Ears
from
the
cry
of
returned
unto
his
stately
Pallace
:
And
this
poor
mans
Throat
being
dry
with
crying
,
his
Heart
fainting
for
want
of
Comfort
,
his
Tongue
cleaving
to
the
roof
of
his
Mouth
,
being
worn
out
with
Fastings
and
Miseries
,
starved
at
the
Rich
mans
Gate
.
Now
must
I
speak
for
dead
against
the
Rich
Man
.
Why
should
not
I
tell
thee
the
Portion
that
i●
prepared
for
thee
?
This
shall
be
thy
Portion
to
drink
Thus
shall
the
miseries
of
be
revenged
by
the
just
plagues
that
shall
justly
fall
upon
the
rich
mans
head
.
And
now
the
rich
man
being
in
Hell
Flames
,
methinks
I
hear
him
crying
out
,
saying
have
mercy
on
me
,
and
send
that
he
may
dip
the
top
of
his
finger
in
water
to
cool
my
tongue
.
answered
him
But
he
answered
Not
a
drop
O
why
turn
you
from
me
,
mighty
Sir
,
consider
that
I
am
your
fellow
creature
,
made
of
the
same
mold
,
inspired
by
the
same
Breath
of
Life

retain
in
me

Dispise
me
not

great
Sir
,
nor
slight
me
for
my
miseries
,
't
is
in
his
power
,
whom
I
adore
,
to
raise
me
to
the
heights
of
Honour
,
and
depress
your
towring
greatness
.
Yet
cannot
your
Riches
in
the
least
avail
you
,
if
he
please
to
stretch
out
his
hand
against
you
;
nay
granting
you
continue
as
you
are

admired
and
courted
by
the
crouding
vulgar
;
yet
the
wretched
,
the
poor
despicable
thing
thou
seest
is
far
happpier

It

Yet
this

without
a
conscience
void
of

can
yield
you
no

a

Conscience
is
a
continual
feast

Although
at

she

yet
there
will
come
a
day
when

And when he came to himself , he said , how many hired Servants of my Fathers have bread enough and to spare , and I perish with hunger .
I will arise and go to my Father , and will say unto him , Father , I have sinned against Heaven , and before thee .
And am no more worthy bo be called thy Son , make me as one of thy hired Servants .
And he arose and came to his Father ; but when he was yet a great way off , his Father saw him , and had compassion on him , and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him .
And the Son said unto him , Father , I have sinned against Heaven , and in thy sight , and am no more worthy to be called thy Son .
Take
the
Paraphrase
upon
the
whole
,
as
followeth
,
Viz.
A certain Man had two Sons , one whereof , and he the Eldest , continued always in his Family , content with his provision , subject to his Govern ment , and in diligent Obedience to all his Commands . But the other , viz. the Younger Brother , full of Juvinal heat and confidence , and 〈◊〉 the Age of Discretion , grows impatient of Restraint and desirous of Liberty , especially fancying that he could live better to his own content , and every whit as well provide for himself ; if he were at his own disposal : Therefore he desires his Father to set him out his share , and to put his Portion into his own hands , and leave him to his own conduct . The Father gratifies him in all his desires , gives him his Portion and his Liberty ; which done , the Son , as if his Fathers presence or vicinage would put too great a restraint upon him , and give check to his freedom , he betakes himself to another Countrey ; where being in the height of Jollity amongst his Harlots and lewd Companions methinks I hear him speak to his own Heart after this manner following , viz. O! sweet , what rare felicity is here , Where nought offends , where all things fit appear ; Where Natures shop full furnish'd with supply , Stands alwaies open to the Passers by . My thoughts , what think you of these Streams so clear ? My Senses , can you not suck Honey here ? Affections , can you here not feed desire And with contentment to the Heart retire ? Here are the Beds where sweetest Roses grow , Here are the Banks where purest Streams do flow , Here are the only Instruments of Mir●h , Here are the only Iewels upon Earth . My stragling thoughts then here set up your stay ▪ My striving Sences seek no richer prey ; Affections , here your Fancies may be quieted , My pleased Heart then rest thou here delighted .
But to proceed : This Prodigal being now out of his Fathers Eye ; Reach and Controul ▪ he indulges himself in the highest surfeit of Licentiousness , by which means in a short time ( whilst he enjoys the present , took no care for the future ) the the stock his Father allotted him , was utterly exhausted ; and with that his pleasures also fail ; the Roots that ministred to them being thus dryed up ; and where his pleasures end , his cares begin : For now he hath leasure to look about him , and finds himself in a bad case , having no course left , but either to reurn to his Father , and confessing his Folly , and imploring his compassion ; or to put himself a Servant to a Stranger ; thereby to get a mean lively-hood ; the former of these he was yet loath to come to ; having not as he thought tryed sufficiently the folly of his own counsel , and to take to himself the shame of his own ill conduct , by so plain a retreat , was thought a sharper calamity than any he yet felt ; therefore he resolved upon the latter ; as if the severities of a stranger were more tollerable than the repro●●hes of a Father : For he concluded a Man was not perfectly miserable that had no body to upbraid his Folly . And now being in a strange Country , he comforted himself with this ; that if he should find none to pity him , he was sure there would be none could torture him with the g rating remembrance of what he was and might have been . Well , he becomes a Servant , and he that could not brook the grave restraint of paternal Authority , now feels the yoke of servile obedience ; for he is put to the base drudgery of feeding Swine , and hath the coursest fair for his maintenance : the Swine and he feed alike upon Husks , only with this difference some body cares for the Hogs , but nobody for the Slave ; and the former have enough of that which agrees with them , but the latter is pinched with hunger , having not allowance of that sordid diet answera●le to the importunity of his needs . B●●ng sorely afflicted with this , he that formerly dreamed of nothing but sweets of liberty , and the surfeits of voluptuousness , and never once thought of those hungry Wolves , Want and Necessity , which now stand at his door , after many a sad sigh , discourses thus with himself :
falls
on
his
Neck
,
and
kisses
him
.
Ah
,
Sirrah
,
are
you
now
come
,
is
all
spent
amongst
your
Whores
and
Harlots
?
Return
unto
them
,
let
them
provide
for
you
,
come
you
no
more
within
my
doors
.
Bring
hither
the
best
Robe
,
the
Shoes
,
the
Ring
,
let
the
fat
Calf
be
killed
,
make
a
Feast
,
send
for
Musick
,
let
all
be
forgotten
that
is
past
;
let
my
Son●
old
Courses
no
more
be
remembred
.
forthwithto
bring
out
the
best
Robe
,
and
put
it
upon
his
Son
,
together
with
a
Ring
on
his
hand
,
and
Shoes
on
his
feet
,
i.
e.
bring
out
also
the
fatted
Calf
,
and
kill
it
,
and
let
us
eat
and
be
merry
;
for
this
my
Son
was
dead
,
and
is
alive
again
,
was
lost
and
is
found
;
and
they
began
to
be
merry
.
This
your
Brother
was
lost
,
and
is
found
,
was
dea●
,
and
is
alive
again
.
Come
to
my
Arms
,
my
dear
dear
Child
,
I
cannot
see
you
stand
thus
cringing
,
nor
can
I
permit
you
this
range
distance
.
O!
Name
not
what
is
past
,
but
let
your
future
care
prevent
the
like
revolt
,
the
like
extravigance
.
All
,
all
's
forgiven
,
whilst
I
sign
this
pardon
with
this
kiss
,
this
kind
embrace
,
nay
with
my
aged
tears
that
spring
from
streams
of
joy
.
Arise
my
Son
,
and
may
ten
thousand
blessings
and
happinesses
more
than
your
aged
Sire
can
wish
,
fall
all
you
:
but
tell
my
Son
,
tell
of
the
strange
adventures
that
befel
your
absence
.
In
a
blessed
hour
were
your
resolves
,
and
more
happy
was
the
moment
when
I
again
recei●ed
my
much
beloved
Son
,
for
whose
return
loud
Instruments
of
Musick
shall
proclaim
,
and
feasting
for
his
sake
last
many
a
day
;
then
let
us
in
and
order
it
.
Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand , Come ye blessed of my Father , inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the Foundation of the world .
Then shall he say also unto them on the left Hand , Depart from me , ye cursed , into everlasting fire , prepared for the Devil and his Angels .
The
Lord
Chief
Iustice
of
the
whole
World
,
Lord
let
me
stay
her●
rather
then
go
to
that
Dungeon
of
darkness
.
A
sight
of
thy
beautiful
Face
may
possibly
abate
my
Sorrows
,
and
thy
Presence
may
mitigate
my
Sufferings
.
from
me
Lord
,
If
I
must
undergo
so
dreadful
a
doom
,
as
to
depart
from
thee
,
the
Father
of
Lights
,
and
Fountain
of
Life
,
yet
bless
me
before
I
go
;
One
good
wish
of
thy
Heart
,
one
good
word
of
thy
Mouth
will
make
me
blessed
where
ever
I
go
.
Those
whom
thou
blessest
,
are
blessed
indeed
At
this
parting
grant
me
thy
blessing
.
Thou
cursed
Lord
,
if
I
must
go
,
and
thy
Curse
with
me
,
send
me
to
some
good
place
,
where
I
may
find
somewhat
to
refresh
me
under
thy
loss
and
curse
.
It
's
misery
enough
to
lose
thy
presence
,
Good
Lord
command
me
to
some
good
place
.
Depart
thou
cursed
into
fire
Ah
Lord
,
if
I
must
go
with
thy
Curse
,
and
to
so
woful
a
place
as
fire
,
I
beseech
thee
let
me
not
stay
there
long
.
Alas
,
who
can
abide
devouring
flames
one
moment
?
material
fires
of
man's
kindling
are
terrible
,
but
how
intollerable
are
those
flames
which
thy
breath
,
like
a
stream
of
brimstone
,
hath
kindled
!
I
beseech
thee
,
if
I
must
go
to
it
,
let
me
pass
swiftly
through
it
,
and
not
stay
in
it
.
where
the
worm
never
dieth
,
and
the
fire
never
goeth
out
?
to
the
Lake
that
burneth
with
fire
and
brimstone
for
ever
.
Depart
thou
cursed
into
everlasting
fire
.
Lord
,
this
is
dismal
and
dreadful
indeed
to
go
from
thee
,
who
art
all
good
,
and
to
go
to
fire
which
hath
in
it
extremity
of
all
evil
,
and
to
lose
thee
,
and
fry
in
flames
for
ever
,
ever
,
ever
;
yet
,
Lord
,
if
it
is
thy
Will
it
should
be
so
,
hear
me
yet
in
one
desire
let
me
have
such
society
as
may
mitiga●e
,
at
le●●●
such
as
may
not
aggravate
my
misery

Depart
from
me
thou
cursed

into
everlasting
fire
prepared
for
the
Devil

his
Angels

who
has

to

his

took
from
her

her
loathed
reproach
.
I
dare
beleive
no
less
,
yet
you
durst
doubt
the
truth
of
what
his
high
Behest
imorted
.
'T
is
just
with
Heavens
eternal
King
,
who
had
done
such
great
things
for
you
,
that
you
were
so
punished
,
and
stand
as
an
example
to
the
diffident
.
That
,
next
to
praising
our
great
Benefactor
,
who
with
Mercies
and
choice
Favours
every
way
incompasses
us
,
shall
be
my
cheif
care

but
see
the
Sacrifices
wait
,
you
must
now
to
the
Temple
.
Hast
then
whilst
I
retire
,
and
offer
up
the
Sacrifices
of
a
contrite
Heart
,
which
God
has
promised
never
to
reject
.
'T
is
so
most
Potent
Monarch
,
the
Kings
are
journyed
through
the
Wilderness
,
and
by
this
time
have
reached
their
Native
Lands
;
the
Infant
,
though
all
diligent
inquire
has
been
made
,
is
no
where
to
be
found
.
What
means
my
Lord
the
King
,
what
are
his
thoughts
?
thus
low
I
beg
to
be
made
privy
to
the
intentions
of
a
Monarch
.
'T
is
brave
,
though
bloody
,
yet
the
King
shall
be
obeyed
before
to
morrow
this
time
;
not
a
Brat
shall
live
beneath
the
Age
you
mention
,
no
●ity
or
rem●rse
shall
be
of
force
to
stay
our
Hands
,
to
the
cries
of
tender
Mothers
we
will
be
deaf
as
Seas
,
and
whilst
the
Younglings
sprawl
upon
our
Spears
,
our
Hearts
sha●l
be
as
hard

Adamant

no
lurking
holes

death

death
shall
be
their
portion

tender
breasts

will
snatch
them
to
untimely
Graves

My

Death

In
vain
he
strove
to
rob
us
of
our
only
Ioy
,
in
vain
he
plotted
to
surprise
the
Life
of
our
dear
Son
and
Lord
.
'T
is
true
,
but
yet
his
murder●●●
〈◊〉
have
made
some
thousands
childless
.
With
him
't
is
true
,
there
is
nothing
impossible
,
therefore
how
ought
men
to
adore
his
sacred
Name
,
and
at
an
awful
distance
struck
with
admiration
,
contemplate
his
wonders
.
We
will
praise
him
in
the
Beauty
of
his
Holiness
'
and
never
cease
to
bow
before
the
Foot-stool
of
his
Throne
of
Grace
,
and
with
humility
revere
his
tremendous
Majesty
.
'T
is
indeed
convenient

that
when
the
Sun

risin●●lorious
in
the
East
sends
forth
his
Beams
to

th●
Bosom

Coast

it

safe

us
to
go
t●
because
the
Tyrants
Son
reigns
in
Slumber
my
dear
Child
,
had
not
Heavens
Favourite
been
propitious
,
it
had
been
everlasting
sleep
.
Vision
says
my
Child
—
Alass
they
were
Visions
,
but
must
needs
be
strange
ones
.
And
do
you
fancy
then
you
only
slept
.
Mistake
not
my
dear
Daughter
,
for
to
your
Fathers
grief
,
your
Soul
was
separated
by
the
hand
of
Deat●
from
its
loved
Mansion
;
this
beauteous
Form
in
which
now
streams
warm
blood
,
was
some
hours
since
a
cold
,
pale
,
lifeless
course
.
Yes
,
Death
had
snatched
thee
from
me
,
leaving
me
to
mourn
for
so
great
a
loss
,
and
thou
hadst
been
no
more
,
had
not
the
mighty
Prophet
by
his
word
called
back
thy
fleeting
Soul
.
It
was
the
wonder-working
Prophet
,
whose
great
Miracles
astonish
all
man-kind
;
but
since
my
joy
again
is
full
,
in
having
my
sole
comfort
by
his
power
restored
,
and
rescued
from
the
Grave
;
let
us
hence
,
and
publish
the
amazing
news
to
our
Relations
,
that
they
all
may
joyn
with
us
in
praising
him
,
who
has
given
back
my
Daughters
Life
.
My
Lord
I
have
considered
,
and
it
is
neither
Gold
nor
Silver
I
demand
,
no
nor
Gems
,
nor
places
of
high
Honour
,
but
It
is
but
a
trifle
,
My
Lord
,
that
I
demand
.
Then
great
King
't
is
—
't
is
—
the
—
Head
Why
,
to
be
plain
,
the
Head
of
the
Baptist.
Great
Sir
,
he
has
displeased
the
Queen
my
Mother
.
She
charged
me
on
her
blessing
I
should
●●k
no
other
recompence
,
therefore
the
Guilt
be
upon
your
Queen
,
your
Brother
's
once
beloved
Wife
,
and
not
on
me
;
for
so
much
crudelity
is
contrary
to
the
soft
Nature
of
a
tender
Virgin
.
Well
great
King
,
I
'le
wait
its
coming
,
though
you
are
very
angry
,
for
I
will
assure
you
,
I
dare
not
return
without
it
.
How
angry
is
my
Father
in
Law
—
yet
let
him
know
I
fear
not
all
his
Frowns
,
for
well
I
am
as●ured
my
Mother
soon
can
smooth
his
wrinkled
Front
,
and
calm
the
tempest
of
his
mind
.
—
So
,
it
is
brought
,
and
in
a
Charger
;
O!
how
wan
it
looks
?
how
throb
the
Lips
with
dying
murmurs
;
but
however
,
I●le
go
bare
it
to
my
Mother
as
it
is
,
that
it
may
save
her
longing
.
What
will
that
profit
me
?
when
it
is
but
to
my
Infamy
,
my
shame
and
everlasting
blot
;
I
shall
b●
so
exposed
to
after
Ages
.
But
yet
my
Conscience
—
Methinks
something
within
informs
me
it
is
a
horrid
Crime
,
the
basest
of
Ingratitude
,
to
prove
perfidious
to
so
good
a
Master
.
How
!
thirty
Roman
Pence
—
A
Summ
it
is
true
would
tempt
a
man
to
do
a
daring
deed
.
But
,
Well
waving
further
Ceremony
,
I
'le
stifle
my
upbraiding
Conscience
;
sere
it
with
all
dark
resolves
,
and
desperately
comply
with
your
demands
.
With
a
Face
as
bold
as
Death
,
frought
with
mischief
,
I
will
bare
up
to
him
,
and
with
a
treacherous
kiss
salute
him
,
and
then
let
those
that
have
the
charge
,
be
sure
to
catch
him
.
I
go
,
though
to
perf●●m
the
blackest
deed
that
Hell
ever
put
into
the
Heart
of
Man
,
yet
I
have
promised
,
and
I
will
perform
,
though
Fa●●
and
Destiny
does
push
me
●●●dlong
into
monstrous
ruine
.
I
laboured
to
deliver
that
just
man
,
but
found
it
w●
in
vain
,
for
still
no
other
cry
than
crucifie
him
,
sound●
through
the
Iudgment-Hall
.
I
dare
beleive
as
much
,
but
the
sad
deed
is
p●●ecal
,
and
all
you
argue
now
is
vain
.
How
,
lives
!
Then
fear
strikes
me
,
horror
chills
me
,
and
I
tremble
at
what
you
relate
.
Indeed
his
meekness
melted
me
into
Compassion
,
and
made
me
labour
to
deliver
him
.
Then
I
am
guilty
of
a
horrid
Crime
,
but
now
it
is
●ast
,
in
vain
it
is
to
argue
it
;
what
I
have
done
,
I
in
a
●anner
was
compelled
to
do
;
therefore
the
Blood
s●●●ed
,
be
on
the
guilty
Nation
,
as
the
clamorous
Rout
●equired
.
●hilst
I
go
mourn
to
wash
away
the
Guilt
●f
Blood
so
precious
,
yet
so
vilely
spilt

This
and
much
more
I`le
do
for
everlasting
Life
.
●●r
will
I
argue
longer
,
least
the
happy
motion
tha●
dis●●ses
me
to
happiness
,
should
fail
;
but
with
s●ift
feet
,
●hilst
●ark●ess
●antles
in
the
World
,
fly
●o
the
Fo●ntain
●f
all
●o●s
.
It
is
true
,
nor
must
we
be
behind
hand
,
since
we
have
embrac●t
it
.
Take
no
care
for
that
,
we`ll
give
,
and
yet
we
will
save
enough
to
keep
us
from
contempt
.
O
fear
it
not
,
what
M●rtal
can
discover
it
?
he
that
bought
it
,
knows
not
ou●
intention
,
or
if
he
does
,
will
never
inquire
how
we
bestow
the
coin
.
I
'le
do
as
you
advise
,
and
hope
to
be
as
well
accepted
as
those
who
part
with
all
they
have
,
Why
thinkest
thou
,
he
that
has
devised
,
canno●
without
a
blush
,
affirm
it
is
the
whole
?
nor
let
you●
assuration
be
less
,
least
we
should
differ
,
and
by
tha●
means
be
detected
.
Great
Prince
of
●●●kness
,
whom
I
still
admire
,
I●
cannot
be
that
you
are
ignorant
of
all
the
wond●●s
;
that
of
late
have
overspr●ad
the
Coast
,
Miracles
so
far
exceeding
what
is
in
my
power
,
that
now
w●atever
I
doe
,
but
dimly
shines
,
my
Fame
is
quite
eclipsed
,
and
all
my
Reputation
is
lost
.
It
i●
,
and
all
my
Magick
Power
i●
vanished
,
n●r
can
you
b●
igno●ant
of
wh●se
command
I
am
utterly
disabled
.
Was
there
n●t
a
cause
,
since
th●y
have
disposessed
me
of
my
profit
,
that
was
daily
wont
to
accrae
t●
me
by
y●●r
strange
divination
,
when
to
purchase
you
of
your
aged
Pa●ents
,
I
was
obliged
to
sell
my
dear
Inheritance
.
It
is
so
,
and
by
it
I
am
undone
for
ever
;
O!
how
rich
should
I
have
been
,
had
not
these
Men
unhappily
arrived
;
but
yet
they
went
not
hence
unpunished
.
'T
is
all
mysterious
,
and
methinks
I
am
smitten
with
remorse
,
but
tell
me
are
you
pleased
now
as
heretofore
,
when
your
admired
breast
was
held
the
Cabinet
of
Fate
,
to
tell
things
admirable
,
and
unriddle
darkest
Misteries
,
proclaim
what
future
Ages
should
produce
,
and
well
presage
the
sure
events
of
Peace
and
War
.
You
tell
me
stories
strange
,
but
yet
I
must
beleive
●hem
true
,
and
henceforth
make
it
my
endeavours
to
bew●il
my
crime
.
'T
is
true
,
we
see
it
but
too
plain
,
how
her
neglected
Altar
stands
,
no
crouds
of
now
rest
her
Faun
,
but
listening
to
new
Doctrine
,
are
become
regardless
.
No
better
way
,
than
by
insinuating
the
dangerous
consequence
of
this
new
doctrine
,
to
set
the
rout
a
madding
,
raise
a
tumult
,
and
whilst
each
gabbles
out
he
knows
not
what
,
put
all
into
confusion
.
O!
slow
of
apprehension
,
why
in
the
uproar
,
these
Teachers
,
ten
to
one
,
will
fall
a
Sacrifice
to
the
unruly
Fury
of
the
vulgar
,
who
in
their
heat
triumph
in
mischeif
,
that
w●en
cool
they
sadly
lament
.
We
will
instantly
put
this
in
practice
,
that
your
trade
may
be
restored
;
come
,
come
about
it
