 | Piety, and Poesy |  |
On holy Fasting, and on holy hunger.
An holy Fasting may be call'd a Feast,It feeds the fainting Soul, and gives it rest,
He that would gain a life for Everlasting
By God's account, is onely full with fasting,
A holy Hunger doth suppresse all Evil,
That kinde of Hunger famisheth the Devil.
