Sonnet. LII.
[Fvll of celestiall syrropes, full of sweete]
Fvll of celestiall syrropes, full of sweeteare all thy preceptes, full of happines,
full of all comforte, full of blessednes
those salutations which our Sauiour greete:
O let vs then contende (since it is meete)
to keepe those lawes with vpright holinesse,
oh let vs vse, and haue in readinesse
those sweete orations, prostrate at his feete:
Begging, imploring, weeping, smiling, kneeling
for succour, grace, and for our sinnes humbly
repentance mercies signes in our heart feeling:
Repent, and praise our God, for it is comely,
O nothing doth a Christian more beseeme,
Then him to prayse that did his soule redeeme.
