Fons Lachrymarum or a fountain of tears: From whence doth flow Englands Complaint, Jeremiahs Lamentations paraphras'd with Divine Meditations and an elegy Upon that Son of Valor Sir Charles Lucas. Written by John Quarles |
Fons Lachrymarum | ||
Meditat. 3.
What have I done? or what have I deserv'd,That I am thus imprison'd, and reserv'd
For death and sad destruction? Nay, but why,
Why do I ask, what I have done? To dye,
To dye, 'tis too too little, could a worse,
A worse succeed, I have deserv'd the Curse.
