Longing-for-comfort.
Oh! how doo I longue, for Comfort in these Dayes.
It is no meruell, though my Heart can take no Rest:
For after Good information, is my Demande alwayes
Oh! how doo I longue, for Comfort in these Dayes.
Coulde I descerne of al-things, No Playnt thus shoulde I rayse:
For everyone woulde gladly, haue his Greefe redrest.
Oh! how doo I longue, for Comfort in theise Dayes
It is no meruell, though my Heart can take no Rest.

Also Those, that ; after good Information; are hungry:
And Those likwyse, that ; after Righteousnes; are thirsty/
These verely doo I feede, and can

For thy Speach, hath my Heart, reioyst and greatly eased.

Therfore misconceaue thou not, the longing of my Mynde,
For first ; in my Discomfort thus, bewrapped as the blynde;
Woulde I very gladly, knowe how thou art named.
