003.B33.005  Is not ower Mistris fayre Religion
003.B33.006  As worthy of all ower sowles deuotion
003.B33.007  As Vertu was to the first blind Age
003.B33.008  Ar not Heauens joyes as valient to assuage
003.B33.009  Lusts, as earths honnor was to them! Alasse
003.B33.010  As we doe them in means, shall they surpasse
003.B33.011  Vs in the end; And shall thy fathers spirit

003.B33.022  Of frosen North=discoueryes and thryce
003.B33.023  Colder then Sallamanders, like deuine

003.B33.034  Striues't to please, for hate not love would allowe
003.B33.035  The fayne his whole Relme, to be ridd; and as
003.B33.036  The wolds[sic] all parts wither away and passe
003.B33.037  So the wolds[sic] selfe thy other lou'd foe is
003.B33.038  In her decrepid wayne; and thow louing this
003.B33.039  Doest loue a witherd, and worne strumpet. Last

003.B33.042  Giue this flesh power to tast ioy, thow dost lothe.
003.B33.043  Seeke trew Religion! Oh whear! Mireus
003.B33.044  Thinking her vnhous'd heere, and fled from vs
003.B33.045  Seekes her at Roome; Ther becaus he doth know
003.B33.046  That she was thear a Thowsand yeare agoe
003.B33.047  He loues her ragges, so as we heere obey
003.B33.048  The state=cloth wher the Prince sat yesterday.
003.B33.049  Crants to sutch braue loues will not bee enthral'd
003.B33.050  but loues her onely who at Geneua is cal'd
003.B33.051  Religion, playne, simple, sullen, yonge
003.B33.052  Contemptous yet vnhan>s%>d<>s<om; as among
003.B33.053  Lecherous humors, there is one w%5ch%6 judges
003.B33.054  Noe wenches holsom but course Cuntry drudges.
003.B33.055  Grayus stays still at home heere and becaus
003.B33.056  Sum Preachers, vyle ambitious Bawdes and %Y****%ZLawes
003.B33.057  Still new like fashons, bid him thinke that she
003.B33.058  Which dwels w%5t%6 vs, is onely perfect, hee
003.B33.059  Embraceth her whome his Godfathers will
003.B33.060  Tender to him beeing tender; as wardes still
003.B33.061  Take sutch wayes as ther Gardens[sic] offer, or

003.B33.063  All becaus all cannot be good as one
003.B33.064  Knowing sum women whores will marry none.
003.B33.065  Graccus loues all as one, and thinks yt soe
003.B33.066  As women doe in diuers fashons goe
003.B33.067  [LM:]In diuers habits yet ar [RM:]still one kind
003.B33.068  So doth, so is Religion; and this blind=
003.B33.069  nes too mutch light breedes. But vnmooud thou
003.B33.070  Of force must one, and forc't but one allow,
003.B33.071  And the right; Aske thy father w%5ch%6 is she
003.B33.072  Let him aske his: Though trewth and falshood bee
003.B33.073  Neere Twinnes, yet trewth a litell elder is
003.B33.074  Bee busy to seeke her, beleeue me this
003.B33.075  Hee is not of none, nor worst, w%5ch%6 seek's the best
003.B33.076  To adore, or scorne an Image, or protest
003.B33.077  May all be bad, doubt wysely; In strange waye
003.B33.078  To stand enquyering right is not to staye
003.B33.079  To sleepe, or runne wronge is; On a high Hill
003.B33.080  Ruggued[sic] and steepe Trewth dwells; and hee that will
003.B33.081  Reache it abought must, and abought goe
003.B33.082  And what the Hills suddaynes resists, winne soe,
003.B33.083  Yet stryue so that before Age Deaths twy light
003.B33.084  Thy mynd rest, for none can worke in y%5t%6 night
003.B33.085  To will implyes delay: therfore now doe
003.B33.086  Hard deedes the bodyes paynes; hard knowledge too
003.B33.087  The minds endeuors reatch: And Misteryes
003.B33.088  Are as the Sunne; dazeling, yet playne to all eyse
003.B33.089  Keepe ye trewth w%5ch%6 thow hast fownd. Men do not stand
003.B33.090  In so euell case heere, that God hath w%5t%6 his hand
003.B33.091  Signd kinges blank Charts,[sic] To kill whome they hate
003.B33.092  Nor ar thy[sic] viccars, but Hagmen[sic] to fate.
003.B33.093  Foole, and wretch, wilt thow let thy sowle be tyed
003.B33.094  To mens Lawes >by< w%5ch%6 she shall not be tryed
003.B33.095  At the last day; Oh will it then serue thee
003.B33.096  To saye a Pillip,[sic] or a Gregorye 
003.B33.097  A Harry or a Martin taught the this [CW:om]
003.B33.098  Is not this excuse for meere contraryes [100v]
003.B33.099  Equally strong! can not both sydes say soe!
003.B33.100  That thow mayest rightly obey Power, her bounds kowe[sic]
003.B33.101  Those past her Nature, and name is chaungd to bee
003.B33.102  Then humble to her is Idolatrye.
003.B33.103  As streames are, Power is, Those blest flowers w%5ch%6 dwell
003.B33.104  At the rough streames calme head thryue and prooue well
003.B33.105  But hauing left ther rootes and them selues giuen
003.B33.106  To the streames tiranous rage alas are driuen
