Emblema. 38. Ivdæorvm Vocatio.
[_]

ex Ioh. 10. 16.

Reuerendissimo in Christo Patri Episcopo Lincolniensi.
Vnvs Pastor Vnvm Ovili.


The same in English.
Christ is the sheapheard; we the sheepe,
He feedeth, we are fed,
But many doe besides flockes keepe,
Yet is there but one head,
In time to come we shal it see,
Vnder one sheaphard all must be.
The Iewes from vs doe feed apart,
Two heards we are a while,
One day they shall be knit in heart
Faith shall them reconcile,
The prophete Paul did so foretell,

Rom.11. ad finem.


That God againe with them would dwell.


If straungers wee graft in doe take,
they shall sprout foorth indeede,
As roote doeth braunches holy make,
so Abram doeth his seede.
They are not cleane put to reproofe,
But whilest we enter stand aloofe.
Th'Apostles shall not finish all
the townes of lud a land,
Till Christ, who must to iudgement call,
of vs account demaund.
Two people shall in one be knit,
And Israel the name of it.
Who pearced was beholde they shall
with griefe as in the vale,
They wept where did Iosia fall,
so Christ they shall bewaile.
They mourne not yet, but ere 't is long,
Their hearts shall yeeld that are so strong
The vayle which doeth them ouerspread,
from them shall then be rent,
To Christs feete they shall runne with speede,
when as they shall repent.
Thus shepherd one is, and sheepe folde,
If Iewes with vs of one house holde.
We wish that this time come may soone.
that we may ioyned be,
And so in heauen, as here all one,
be of one companie.
Thus three wayes we are ioynd in loue,
To vs, to God, to the Saints aboue.
