Baccharis Coronaria.
The toyled lims and senses earst opprest,Do now aduise securely where to rest.
Vnder Baccharis go shade thee,
Where no Serpent shall inuade thee,
Where the Viper cannot liue,
Nothing enuious may corriue.
Strowe the Carpet all about,
With her flowers to keepe them out:
Bind thy Temples with the wreathes,
Pleated in Chiroticke leaues:
Browes and eye-lids faine of rest,
With the iuice may they be sperst.
Here repose, for here assure thee,
Thou shalt sleepe, and sleepe securelie.
Stand hope of mine confirm'd and let me rest
In Castell guarded with a Lionesse.
------Cum tonat ocyus Ilex
Sulphure discutitur sacro quam tuque domusque.
Sulphure discutitur sacro quam tuque domusque.
FINIS.
