Sonnet. L.

[I would not die but liue (deare liuing Lord)]

I would not die but liue (deare liuing Lord)
And to thy glory shew that facultie,
With which thou didst mee worthlesse beautifie:
Turning my Muse to that Diuine concord,
Which I perceiue doth with my soule accord
In endlesse praise of thy Diuinitie.
But (if vnworthy them to magnifie,
Because my sinfull mouth hath not abhorr'de
To bee before with vanities abus'de)
Thou loath my wicked tongue should them declare:
Thy will bee donne, which cannot bee refus'de:
For death of sinne the guerdon doth prepare,
Yet when I die (deare God of Loue and truth)
Remember not the follies of my youth.
