The third Century

Now the Third Century hath brought the Shine
Of Grace, of Patience, Justice too Divine
Through all her teers of Months and furlons too
Of Years within her bounds, in Glorius hew,
Unto the borders and the Selvedge where
It hands them to the Century that pears.
And now I come to trace their Rayes why fly
And guild this fourth ensuing Century.
