A dyall of dayly Contemplacion, or deuine exercise of the mind | ||
[Thincke wee the Prophetes spent their time in sport]
Thincke wee the Prophetes spent their time in sport,Or the Apostles shewing infernall payne,
The people from their sinnes for to exhort,
Their wayghty woords we should not take in vaine:
VVhich were content of tyrantes to be slaine,
To obteyne Heauen, and hellish payne eschewe
Their fayth in Christe, so firme was and certayne,
By their examples let vs our life renewe.
