Emblema. 63. Melchisedechus rex & sacerdos Christi præcursor & anteambulo.
The same in English.
Bread and wine to Abraham bringMelchisedech doth both priest and king.
The other tithes vnto him gaue:
Of noble stock this prophet came
To Noah sonne, Sem is his name,
A type of Christ his precious blood,
And flesh for bread must be our foode:
Of righteousnes and peace they call
Him king, which fitly on Christ fall,
For he shall iudge the world most iust,
On him for peace depend we must.
