[Among the plagues of Egypt most horrible]

Among the plagues of Egypt most horrible,
One was of darknes three dayes enduring,
VVhich was a token troublesome and terrible,
To all the Egyptians: but there abiding,
The people of Israel had large light shining,
So though this world be blinded by abusance,
Yet amongst all some be in grace growyng,
To innocent lyfe, through fruitefull repentance.
