154.CT1.HE1  A Hymne to the Saincts, and /to Marquis Hambleton. [236]
154.CT1.001  Whether y%5t%6 Soule w%5ch%6 now comes vnto you
154.CT1.002  ffill any former ranck, or make a newe
154.CT1.003  Whether it take a name, nam'd there before
154.CT1.004  Or bee a name it self, and order more
154.CT1.005  Then was in heau'n till nowe, (for may not hee
154.CT1.006  Bee soe if euery seuerall Angell bee
154.CT1.007  A kinde alone) what euer order growe
154.CT1.008  Great by him in heau'n, wee doe not soe,
154.CT1.009  One of your Orders growes by his Access
154.CT1.010  But by this losse growe all our orders lesse,
154.CT1.011  The name of father, Master, friend, the name
154.CT1.012  Of Subiect and of prince, in one are lame,
154.CT1.013  ffaire mirth is damp't, & Conuersation black,
154.CT1.014  The houshold widdowed, & the Garter slack,
154.CT1.015  The Chappell lacks an eare, Councell a tongue,
154.CT1.016  Storie a theame, and Musique lacks a songe,
154.CT1.017  Bless'd order y%5t%6 hath him, the losse of him
154.CT1.018  Gangrin'd all orders heere, all lost a Limbe;
154.CT1.019  Neuer made bodie such hast to confesse
154.CT1.020  What a Soule was, All Comlinesse
154.CT1.021  ffled in a minute, when the Soule was gone,
154.CT1.022  And hauing lost that beauty would haue none
154.CT1.023  So fell our Monasteries; in an instant growne [CW:Not]
154.CT1.024  Not to lesse houses, but to heapes of stone [237]
154.CT1.025  Soe sent this body y%5t%6 faire forme it wore
154.CT1.026  vnto the Sphere of formes, and doth before
154.CT1.027  His Soule shall fill vp his Sepulchrall stone
154.CT1.028  Anticipate a resurrection.
154.CT1.029  ffor as in fame nowe his soule is heere,
154.CT1.030  Soe in the forme thereof his bodie's there.
154.CT1.031  And if faire soule not w%5th%6 first Innocents
154.CT1.032  Thy station bee, but w%5th%6 the penitents,
154.CT1.033  (And who shall dare to aske then when I am
154.CT1.034  Di'de skarlet in the bloud of that pure Lambe,
154.CT1.035  Whether that Collour w%5ch%6 is skarlett then,
154.CT1.036  Were blacke or white before in y%5e%6 eyes of men)
154.CT1.037  When thou remembrest what sinns thou didst finde
154.CT1.038  Amongst those many friends nowe left behinde,
154.CT1.039  And see'st such sinners, as they are w%5th%6 thee,
154.CT1.040  Gott thither by repentance lett it bee
154.CT1.041  Thy wish, to wish all there, to wish them cleane,
154.CT1.042  Wish him a Dauid, her a Magdalen./
