Alas nor heart nor hand is strong To utter a becoming Song 'T is irk some work my friends may think While gall and vinegar I drink While evidently all may see God writes those bitter things to me Puts me to silence with disgrace Shuts out my cry spits in my face It seems improper such a time To speak heart-breaking thoughts in Rhime 'T is true if any should advise Thy putting forth in wonted guise To deck the Tombs or spread the praise Of men debauched all their dayes In Righteousness thou should'st decline The offering any help of thine But here is nothing else design'd Then bring to light and keep in mind The Grace that did a Worm engage To be Gods Witness in his Age. In a great strait indeed am I 'T is hard to grant hard to deny My willing mind would shew regard My sinful heart and hand retard I would attempt but then I fear I Grace shall rather cloud then clear However I can do no less Then shew what thoughts my mind impress Set forth his worth to Friends and Foes Exhort this Age and therewith close JOHN VERNON Anag In Nue Honor.
