manly did subdue And in sweete Christ his health he did renue Most like a Lambe amidst his greeuous paine He beares the Crosse that God vpon him laide With patience hee his anguishes sustaines In extreamst griefe most faithfully he praide Christ was the rocke whereon he sought to builde All other meanes this Christian Lord exilde Thus in Gods trueth his heart and minde was staide He studied still to exercise his Lawe By-pathes to treade he euer was affraide Of iudgement he did alwaies stande in awe His Lord and God right glad hee was to serue He from his heasts of purpose would not swerue Thus spent this Lord his time in his distresse On Gods sweete will he alwaies did depende To handfast Christ by faith he foorth did prease And he through grace did sweete releife him sende Though bodie his were feeble faint and weake His soule was strong Christ kept the same from wreake When phisicke sought his health for to recure He held Gods word the phisicke for the Spirite From thence he dranke such precious water pure As in the heauens augmented his delight Yet phisicke shew'd on him her wonted skill But all in vaine for God must haue his will Our gratious Queene of curtesie the flowre Faire Englands Gem of lasting blisse and ioye Whom God long shielde with arme of might and powre From all her foes that would worke her annoye From Rich mount came this Lord for to releeue Whose Princely sight great comfort did him giue All meanes she sought to worke her Hattons ease Most louing wordes she gaue the sicke and weake Her Highnes voice his griefes did much appease His heat reuiu'de to heare her Highnesse speake Phisitions then had charge to shewe their skill Vpon this Lord as they would win good will And they with care as subiects to her Grace Obedient were to waite vpon their cure On whom they wrought God knowes a certaine space Deuising howe their health he might procure Fiue daies our Queene remain'd with the destrest Who thought himselfe through her for to be blest She tooke her leaue and bad this Lord farewell And he to heauen with handes outstretched hie Calles vnto him that in the heauens dooth dwell With grace from heauen her Highnes to supplie Long liue saide he most gratious Queene in peace God make thee stronge the rage of foes to cease Thus praide our Queene to God to sende him health And he to heauen for her safegard dooth call That long she might liue in the common wealth To shield the good and bring the bad to thrall He tooke his leaue of his most gratious Queene And praised God she had his comfort beene Phisitions then did on this Lord attend And graue diuines were euer at his hand But that which God dooth minde to bring to end Its vaine for man to gain say or withstand His hope was heauen his trust was in Gods sonne Small was the ease that he by phisicke wonne Time passeth on and calles this Lord away The Sexten waights to ring his dolefull Knell But he prepares himselfe to watch and pray He leaues the world and hopes with Christ to dwell And as by Christ in trueth this Lord was taught With th'oyle of faith his Lampe was fully fraught Securely he to sleepe thought it not meete The sleepe of sinne he did abandon quite He look't for Christ his Lord and Sauiour sweete His hope and trust in his deere death was pight His wedding Roabes with ioy he did prouide In hope to feast with Christ and his sweete Bride What were the words he to the world did leaue He by his will all things in order set He sought no man of duetie to deceiue His hope was Christ from him he comfort fet And as he had beene euerie poore mans friend So he in minde the poore had to his end The Schooles of skill where science dooth abound He thought vppon and dayly had in minde Poore Captiues that in clogs of care are bound To ease their griefe he some releife assignde His seruants all whose loue to him was tender For seruice doone he duely did remember But waxing faint and drawing to his ende He leaues his Queene vnto the Lord of might Desiring him from griefe her to defende And all her foes to foile and put to flight From treasons vilde and Traytors Lord her saue And let thy Trueth through world her passage haue Farewell my Peeres the Lord God be your guide Her Counsell graunt with thy grace to direct That they a salue may day by day prouide To shielde the good and cut off the infect Her Highnes weale God make them still
