 | The Scourge of Folly |  |
Epig. 278. Againe, of my selfe: and my Maid, call'd Grace.
I am a sinner; yet I gouerne Grace;But did shee gouerne mee, I should not sinne:
Shee is my Maide: then dare not her embrace,
Lest sinne I should; and (so) lose Grace therein:
For, Gracess gratious; and her Master is
Gratious, and Gracelesse; God, That; I am This.
