12. On a Sun-Dyall.
This Horizontall Dyall can bewray,To the sad Pilgrim, th'hower of the Day:
But if the Sun appeare not his Adviser,
His eye may looke, yet he prove ne're the wiser:
Alas, alas; there's nothing can appeare,
But onely Types, and shadow'd Figures there:
This Dyall is the Scripture; and the Sun,
Gods holy Spirit; Wee, the Lookers on:
Alas, that sacred Letter, which we read,
Without the Quickning of the Spirit's dead:
The knowledge of our Peace improves no better,
Then if our Eye had not beheld a Letter:
I, but this glorious Sun shines alwayes bright:
I, but we often stand in our owne light:
Vse then the day, for when the day is gon,
There will be darkenes: there will be no Sun.
