Haue any made a Cou'nant with blacke Hell,
and are Familiar with infernall Sprights?
They shall be sought to, wheresoe'er they dwell;
for, many Soules desire to see those sights.
But liues Elias (most familiar
with God and Heau'n) where great ones most frequent,
He liues as in his firie Coach he were;
for, none comes neere so meere an Innocent.

Thus doth the Diuell Lord it o'er the Aire,
and those that most doe prize It; while his slaues
Are more sought to then Saints or Angels faire,
though such Fiends bideing be among the graues:
Then, what so senselesse, as the World, to take
Delight in Diu'ls, and in Hell, for their sake?
