Sonnet. LXXII.

[The sunne of our soules light thee would I call]

The sunne of our soules light thee would I call,
But for our light thou didst the bright Sunne make,
Nor reason that thy Maiestie should take
Thy chiefest subiects Epithites at all.
Our chiefe directions starre celestiall
(But that the starres for our directions sake,
Thou fixed, and canst at thy pleasure shake)
I would thee name: The Rocke substantiall
Of our assurance I would tearme thy name,
But that all Rockes by thy commaund were made:
If King of Kings thy Maiestie became,
Monarch of Monarches I thee would haue saide,
But thou giues kingdomes, and makes Crownes vnstable:
By these I know thy name ineffable.
