If on these thinges I durst not looke, durst I Vpon his Miserable Mother cast myne Eie? Who was Gods Partner here and furnishd thus Halfe of that Sacrifice which ransomd vs. Though these things as I ride bee from myne Eie They are present yett vnto my Memorie; For that lookes towards them, and thou lookest towardes mee O Sauiour as thou hangst vppon the tree. I turne my back to thee but to receaue Corrections, till thy Mercies bid thee leaue O thinke mee worth thyne Anger, punish mee Burne of my rusts, and my deformitie; Restore thine Image, so mvch by thy Grace That thou maist knowe mee, And ile turne my face.| Tamely fraile bodie abstaine to daie; to daie My Soule eates twice: Christ hether and awaie Shee sees him Man, so like God made in this, That of both them, a circle embleme is, Whose first, and last concurre: this doubtfull daie Of feast, or fast, Christ came and went awaie Shee sees nothing, twice att once, who is all, Shee sees a Cedar plant it selfe, and fall, Her maker put to makinge, and the head, Of life att once, not yett aliue and dead; Shee sees at once the Virgin mother staie Reclusd att home, Publique att Golgotha [CW: Sad] |
