[Sleepe, Deathes alye, obliuion of teares]

Sleepe, Deathes alye, obliuion of teares,
Silence of Passions, balme of angrie sore
Suspence of loues, Securitie of feares
Wraths Lenatiue, Hearts ease, stormes calmest shore,
Senses and Soules repriuall from all Combers
Benuming sense of ill with quiet slumbers
