Fons Lachrymarum or a fountain of tears: From whence doth flow Englands Complaint, Jeremiahs Lamentations paraphras'd with Divine Meditations and an elegy Upon that Son of Valor Sir Charles Lucas. Written by John Quarles |
Fons Lachrymarum | ||
76
Meditat. 38.
Can Sin, the Souls consuming Viper, lie,And lurk secure, from Heav'ns all-seeing eye?
Oh no, 'tis vain to think so; though that we
Are muffl'd up with Sin, yet Heav'n can see.
Oh then confess my Soul, and thou shalt tread,
And trample on the Vipers poys'ny head.
