142.WN1.0HE  %XTo the La: C. of C. /from France [p.12]
142.WN1.001  Madam /Here where by all, all Saincts Adored are
142.WN1.002  Twere too mvch Scisme to bee singulare,
142.WN1.003  And gainst a practise generall to warr;
142.WN1.004  Yet tvrninge too Saints, should my ho%>vmilitie
142.WN1.005  To other sainte then yow directed bee
142.WN1.006  That were to make my Scisme; Heresie.
142.WN1.007  Nor would I bee a votarie soe cold.
142.WN1.008  As not to tell yow: if this bee too bold,
142.WN1.009  Pardons are in this market cheaplie sold;
142.WN1.010  Where becawse faith is in too lowe degree,
142.WN1.011  I thought some Apostleship in mee
142.WN1.012  To speake things which by faith a#lone I see
142.WN1.013  That is of yow, who are a firmament
142.WN1.014  Of Vertues, where noe one is growne, nor spent
142.WN1.015  They are your Materiae%Llls, not your Ornament
142.WN1.016  Others whome wee call vertuous are not soe
142.WN1.017  In their whole substance, but their vertues growe
142.WN1.018  But in their hvmors, and at seasons showe.
142.WN1.019  For when through tastles flatt hvmilitie [p.13]
142.WN1.020  In dow=bakd men, some harmelesnes wee see
142.WN1.021  Tis but his fleyme, thats vertuous and not hee.
142.WN1.022  Soe is the blood some tymes, whoever ran
142.WN1.023  To danger vnimportund hee was than
142.WN1.024  No better then a sanguine vertuous man
142.WN1.025  Soe cloystrall men that in pretence of feare
142.WN1.026  All contribution to this life forbeare
142.WN1.027  Haue vertue in Melancholie and only there
142.WN1.028  Spirituall cholerique Critigues, which in all
142.WN1.029  Religions finde faults, and forgiue no fall,
142.WN1.030  Haue through this zeale, vertue but in their gall
142.WN1.031  Wee are thus parcell guilt, to gold wee're growne 
142.WN1.032  When vertue is our Soules complection
142.WN1.033  Who knowes his vertues Name, or place hath none
142.WN1.034  Vertues but Aguish: when tis seuerall
142.WN1.035  By occasion wakd, and circumstantiall
142.WN1.036  True vertue is soule, Alwaies in all deeds All.
142.WN1.037  This vertue thinkinge to giue dignitie [p.14]
142.WN1.038  To your soule founde there no infermitie
142.WN1.039  For your Soule was as good vertue as shee
142.WN1.040  Shee hath theirfore wrought vppon that part of yow
142.WN1.041  (Which is scarce lesse then Soule) as shee could doe
142.WN1.042  And soe hath made your bewtye vertue too
142.WN1.043  Hence comes it that your beautie wounds not harts
142.WN1.044  As others with profane, and sensuall darts
142.WN1.045  But as an influence vertuous thoughts imparts
142.WN1.046  But if such freindes by the honor of your sight
142.WN1.047  Growe capable of this soe great a light
142.WN1.048  As to partake your virtues and their might
142.WN1.049  What mvst I thinke that Influence mvst doe
142.WN1.050  Where it findes Simpathie and matter too
142.WN1.051  Ver=tue, and beautie of the same stuffe as yow?
142.WN1.052  Which is your noble worthye Sister, shee
142.WN1.053  Of whome, if what in this my extasie
142.WN1.054  And reuelation of yow both I see
142.WN1.055  I should write her as in shorte Galleries
142.WN1.056  The Master at the end large Glasses ties
142.WN1.057  Soe to present the roome twice to our eyes.
142.WN1.058  Soe I should giue this letter length. and say [p.15]
142.WN1.059  That which I sayd of yow; There is noe waie
142.WN1.060  From either, but by the other not to stray
142.WN1.061  May therefore this bee enough to testifie
142.WN1.062  My true deuotion, free from flatterie
142.WN1.063  Hee that beleeues himselfe doth never lye.
