Emblem. 87. Corpus non animæ domicilium sed diversum est.
The same in English.
The cords are fast,
The pinnes sticke sure,
A booth thou mayst
It call, which endure
but a small time can.
The pinnes sticke sure,
A booth thou mayst
It call, which endure
but a small time can.
An house of stone
Doth not soone yeild,
For citie the one,
The other for field,
and warrelike man.
Doth not soone yeild,
For citie the one,
The other for field,
and warrelike man.
From warre when they come
In house they remayne,
So clay is our home
While flesh wee retayne
our house as a bower.
In house they remayne,
So clay is our home
While flesh wee retayne
our house as a bower.
So souldiers doe lye,
But our warrefare past,
VVe heauen shall espie,
And dwell at the last
in blessed tower.
But our warrefare past,
VVe heauen shall espie,
And dwell at the last
in blessed tower.
