[As God suffereth the wicked a time to lyue here]
As God suffereth the wicked a time to lyue here,Though it be for a scourge vnto his elect,
So to strengthen their pacience when they forbeare,
Too to many iniuries, yet hath he respect,
But for better tryall of their fyrme fayth,
VVhen he seeth time he wyll detect,
Their foes of mischeefe with sentence of death.
