110.WN5.HE1  %3The calme%4 
110.WN5.001  Our storme is past, and that stormes tyrannous rage
110.WN5.002  A stupid calme but nothing it doth swage
110.WN5.003  The fable is inverted and farr more
110.WN5.004  a block afflicts vs now then a stor>m%>k<e before
110.WN5.005  stormes chaffe, or soone weare out themselves, or
110.WN5.006  In calmes heaven la>%5u%6<ghes to see vs lanquish thus
110.WN5.007  as steadie as I can wish my thoughts were
110.WN5.008  smooth as this Mistris glasse, or what shines there
110.WN5.009  the sea is now; and as those Isles which wee
110.WN5.010  seeke when we can move, our shipps rooted bee
110.WN5.011  As water did in stormes now pit*h runnes out
110.WN5.012  as leade, when afir'd[sic] church becomes one spowt [CW:om]
110.WN5.013  And all our beautie and our trim decayes [p.112]
110.WN5.014  like courts remooving, or like ended playes
110.WN5.015  The fightin%Yn%Zg place now Sea-mens raggs supply
110.WN5.016  and all the tackling is a fripperie
110.WN5.017  No vse of lanthornes, & in one place lay
110.WN5.018  feathers, and dust to day and yesterday
110.WN5.019  E%Ye%Zarths hollownes, which the worlds lungs are
110.WN5.020  haue noe more winde then the vpper vault of ayre
110.WN5.021  Wee cannot lefte freinds, nor sought foes recover
110.WN5.022  but meteor-like save, that wee move not hover,
110.WN5.023  Onely the Calenture togeither draw togeather drawes [line:sic]
110.WN5.024  deare freinds, which meete dead in great fishes iawes
110.WN5.025  And on the hatches as an Altars lyes
110.WN5.026  each one his one Priest, and one sacrifice [CW:Whoe]
110.WN5.027  Whoe liue that miracle doe multiply [p.113]
110.WN5.028  where walkers in hot ovens doe not die
110.WN5.029  if in despight of this we swim, that hath
110.WN5.030  no more refreshing then our brimston bath
110.WN5.031  but from the Sea into the Ship wee turne
110.WN5.032  Like parboiled wret>%Vc<hes on the coales to burne
110.WN5.033  Like Baiazet ingag'd, the Sheapheards scoffe
110.WN5.034  and like slacke=sinnew'd[RM:>>slack=sinewed<<] Sampson his haire of 
110.WN5.035  languish our shipps; now as a Myriade
110.WN5.036  of annts durst the Empero%5r%6s lou'd snake invade
110.WN5.037  The crawling Gallies Seagoales finny schips[Mvar:>>chips<<]
110.WN5.038  might braue our venices now bedrie[sic] ships
110.WN5.039  whether a rotton state and hope of gaine [CW:or]
110.WN5.040  or to disuse me from the queazie paine [p.114]       
110.WN5.041  oft[sic] being belov'd, and loueing, or the thirst 
110.WN5.042  of honour or faire death out pash'd me first
110.WN5.043  I loose my end: for here as-well as I
110.WN5.044  a desperate may live, and a Coward die
110.WN5.045  Stagg, dogg, and all w%5ch%6 from, or towards flies
110.WN5.046  is paid with li>%Ve<f%Ye%Z, or prey or doeing dies
110.WN5.047  ffate grudges vs all: and doth soe laie
110.WN5.048  a scourge gainst we all forgett to praie
110.WN5.049  he that at Sea, praies for more windes aswell
110.WN5.050  vnder the poles may beg could, heate in hell
110.WN5.051  what are we then: %Ybefore%Z how little more alas
110.WN5.052  is man now then before he was, he was [CW:nothing]
110.WN5.053  nothing for vs, wee are for nothing fitt [p.115]
110.WN5.054  Chance, or ourselues still disproportion it
110.WN5.055  we haue noe will, noe power, no sense, I lie
110.WN5.056  I should not then feele this miserie.
