For Angels office, question with their name:
Angell is nothing else but Messenger.
To Creator an high Embassadour:
For piercing zeale compared to a flame.
Angell is nothing else but Messenger.
To Creator an high Embassadour:
For piercing zeale compared to a flame.
But how that office is distinguished,
And wherein each discenteth from the rest
I dare not write least sacred writ I wrest.
Nor feigned stuffe shall heere be vttered.
And wherein each discenteth from the rest
I dare not write least sacred writ I wrest.
Nor feigned stuffe shall heere be vttered.
But seeing God, in workes below the Sunne,
In Church, in common-wealt, in instrument:
In Orchard, Garden, in whole Natures bent,
Doth vse and exercise distinction:
In Church, in common-wealt, in instrument:
In Orchard, Garden, in whole Natures bent,
Doth vse and exercise distinction:
And such distinction is dame natures beauty,
I easily beleeue and condiscend:
(Though how, wherein, I dare not once intend)
Distinction eeke to rest in Angels dutie.

Sundry Respects, do giue them sundry names:
Cherub so calld (as if a multitude)
For Sheraphim, first language doth conclude
The plurall terme, for likenesse vnto flames:

This from appearance, former from effect:
Names vsd before Babels captiuitie:
But thence they brought (with Daniels prophecye)
Great Michaell, which Iudah did protect:

But thence they brought (with Daniels prophecye)
Great Michaell, which Iudah did protect:
And Gabriel, both vsd in Gospells line,
This (man-God) clipt, for bringing happy speach:
Of Messiah, true God and man we teache,
From sacred newes possessing name diuine.

For Michael: tis, Who is God the strong?
Answere is secret: none but Messiah
Like vnto God and same for Essence aye
Defender of the faith in time of wrong.

If Manoah will further names desire,
He answere hath: Hid is the Angels name:
With Rabbi Shelomoh I say the same,
It is vnfit such Secrets to enquire.

Sufficeth it, as Heauen, Earth, Seas and all
Created were for benifit of man:
(Though difference twixt season now and than)
So was creation Angelicall.
