Luke 24. 32.

Whil'st Life-time doth endure.

Though Tempests blow,
Through Stormes of Snow,
Be of a stedfast mind,
Ther's none needs care
For Prince of Air,
Whil'st God rides on the Wind.

He can no more,
But only roar,
And sue us, for his prey:
But ten dayes space
Will turn the chase,
And he will shrink away.
But only roar,
And sue us, for his prey:
But ten dayes space
Will turn the chase,
And he will shrink away.
