[When stormie Boreas puts the seas in rage]

When stormie Boreas puts the seas in rage,
And swelling waves intesting warre do wage;
When sun is darkn'd, when night doth heav'n confound,
And foaming billowes give a discord sound.
My light then leads the way through reeling strands,
Guiding by Scyllas rocks, Charybdis sands.
Here we are tossed in a maine of feares;
But Christ our admirall the lanterne beares;
Least we should suffer shipwracke in the night,
He leads us through all dangers by his light.
Who then would'st come to Heav'ns long wisht for bay,
Follow thy Saviour who's Truth, Light, and Way.
