[The World and Death one day them cross-disguised]
The World and Death one day them cross-disguisedTo cosen Man (when Sin had once beguil'd him)
Both cald him forth; and questioning advised
To say, whose servant hee would fainly yeeld him.
Man, weening then but to the World t'have given-him,
By the false World becam the Slave of Death:
But, from their fraud Hee did appeal by Faith
To HIM, whose Death kild death, and hence hath driven-him.
