39. On the Widowes Cruse.
Lord, I'm in debt, and have not wherewithallTo pay: My score is great; my wealth but small;
My house is poorely furnisht, and my Food
Is slender; I have nothing that is good:
Lord, if my wasted Fortunes prove no better,
My Debt is ev'n as desp'rate as the Detter:
All the reliefe thy servant this long while,
Hath had, is but a little Cruse of Oyle;
There's none will give of Almes: I neither get
Enough to satisfie my wants, nor debt:
Lord, if thee please to show the selfe same Art
Vpon the slender vessell of my Heart,
Thy Prophet did, upon the Widowes Cruse,
I shall have Oyle to sell, have Oyle to vse;
So shall my Debt be paid, and I go free;
No Debt is desp'rate, in respect of Thee.
