The Shine of Divine Patience.

Patience Divine, to admiration will
In this dark Pitchy night of filthy ill
Shine like the glorious Sun with Sparkling Ray[es]
For to adore the Song sung to Gods prayse
And on the Sign Posts, where engraven stand
Prelatick Wickedness, Strange Worship, and
Apostasy, Rebellion, Cruelty,
Patience's Glory doth imbellisht ly.
