Th' eternalls eye suruaying all,
The light he thence yclippeth day.
Thence-forth he darknesse Night dooth call,
And both his sacred word obay.
Euening and morning so afford,
First day, effected by Gods word.
Darkenesse was first, but named last:
The light was last, but named first.
Oh wicked, nill ye be agast,
Who workes of darknesse euer thirst?
Who from the Proto-plast his fall
Are darknes, euill and worst of all.
You plead antiquite and yeares,
And yet must iloope to latter light.
The light your owly-eyes it feares:
For day hath name before the night.
Rough-hided Esau brag of age,
Yet Iagnakobh subdues thy rage.


Euening and morning makes first day:
Wicked and godly make first age:
Some Sathans lore, some God obay,
And mutuall warres with other wage.
But in Iehouahs day of doome,
Darkenesse, of day is ouer come.
