1671.

[Happy those who labour on]

John . . . was baptizing . . . not yet cast into prison. —iii. 23, 24.

Happy those who labour on
For God with all their power,
Labour till their course is run,
And they can work no more:
Happier, when their toils are pass'd,
If liberty they sacrifice,
Offering up their lives at last
To win the martyr's prize.
