110.WN1.HE1  The Calme in the /same Voyage [p.41]
110.WN1.001  Our storme is past and that stormes tyrannous rage
110.WN1.002  A stupid calme but nothinge it doth swage
110.WN1.003  The fable is inverted, and farr more
110.WN1.004  A block afflicts now then,[sic] a storke before;
110.WN1.005  Stormes chafe, and soone weare out them selus or vs
110.WN1.006  In calmes heaven laughs to see vs languish thus
110.WN1.007  As steddie, as I cann wish that my thoughts were
110.WN1.008  Smooth as thy Mistresse glasse, or what shines there
110.WN1.009  The Sea is now, and as those Iles which wee
110.WN1.010  Seeke when wee cann moue, our Ships rooted bee.
110.WN1.011  As water did in Stormes, now pitch rvns out
110.WN1.012  As lead when a fird church becomes one spout: 
110.WN1.013  And all our beawtie and our trim%T decaies
110.WN1.014  Like Courts remouinge, or like eanded plaies.
110.WN1.015  The fightinge place now Seamens raggs supplie, 
110.WN1.016  And all the tacklinge is A fripperie;
110.WN1.017  Noe vse of Lanthornes. And in one place laie
110.WN1.018  Feathers, and dust to daie, and yesterdaie
110.WN1.019  Earths hollowness which the worlds lungs are
110.WN1.020  Haue no more winde then the vpper valte of the aire
110.WN1.021  Wee cann nor left freindes, nor sought foes discouer, >(or recover)<[see notes]
110.WN1.022  But meteor like saue that wee moue not houer
110.WN1.023  Only the Calenture together drawes
110.WN1.024  Deere freindes which meet dead in great fishes Iawes
110.WN1.025  And on the hatches, as on Alters lies. [CW:Each]
110.WN1.026  Each one his owne Priest, and one Sacrifice. [p.42]
110.WN1.027  Who liue that Miracle doe mvltiplie 
110.WN1.028  Where walkers in hott ouens doe not die                     
110.WN1.029  If in despight of this wee swim, that hath
110.WN1.030  Noe more refreshinge then our brimstone hath:
110.WN1.031  But from the Sea into the Ship wee turne.
110.WN1.032  Like parboyld wretches, on the coales to burne,
110.WN1.033  Like Bagazett encagd, the Sheapherds coff,
110.WN1.034  Or like slack sinewed Sampson his haire off
110.WN1.035  Languish our Ships. Now as a Miriade
110.WN1.036  Of Aunts, durst the Emperours loud Snake invade
110.WN1.037  The crawling Gallies, Sea iayles, finnie chips
110.WN1.038  Might braue our Venises, now bed rid ships
110.WN1.039  Whether A rotten state, and hope of gaine
110.WN1.040  Or to disvse mee from the queasie paine
110.WN1.041  Of beinge beloud, and louinge, or the thirst
110.WN1.042  Of honour, or faire death, out push mee first,
110.WN1.043  I loose my eand,[sp:sic] for there as well as I
110.WN1.044  A desperate may liue, and A coward die
110.WN1.045  Stagg, dogg, and all which from, or towards flies
110.WN1.046  Is paid with life, or pray, or doing dies
110.WN1.047  Fate grudges vs all, and doth subtly laie
110.WN1.048  A scourge, gainst which wee all forgett to praie
110.WN1.049  Hee that at Sea praies for more winde, as well
110.WN1.050  Vnder the Poles may beg cold, heate in hell.
110.WN1.051  What are wee then? how little more alas
110.WN1.052  Is man now, Then before hee was, hee was?
110.WN1.053  Nothinge for vs, wee are for nothing fitt,
110.WN1.054  Chance or our selues still disproportion itt.
110.WN1.055  Wee haue no power, no sence, no will, I lie
110.WN1.056  I should not then thus feele this Miserie
