Soliciting for them that did accuse him Excusing such as vvickedly did blame him Tendring of loue vvhere hatred did refuse him Their ordur'd soules seeking so to refine Grace might reduce them to celestiall shine His sute imports his holy thoughts did say Inflict not iustice on these sinne-defiled Vpon my flesh thine angers burden lay Graunt nothing be to thee vnreconsiled Least my redemption should vnperfect seeme Or any sinne I did not full redeeme He vvould not haue our sinnes ascend vp so That they should come vnto his fathers sight Nor yet his fathers vengeance fall so low That on vs sinne committers it should light But plac'd himselfe betwixt both vvrath and sinne True reconcilement by true loue to vvinne For Murderers that gainst his life transgressed With meekest loue he humbly

This happy theefe did offer God his heart His daies vvere dedicate to Sathans power Only remain'd one moment to conuert Wherein he gaue his heart to him that ought it Preuenting him that long in hope

a greeuous crosse Destruction of his cattell flockes and store Vntill he heard his deerest childrens losse And then his greefes extreamest did abound Renting his garments falling on the ground Needs

he vnder-went He vvelcom'd euery torment greefe and paine Afflictions could not mooue his discontent All gaue offence vvhich he imputes to none Only his father now accus'd alone When violence did vvith outrage apprehend him His patient yeelding did most meekely beare it When blasphemies vvith taunts of spight offend him He silent seem'd as though he did not heare it In all the furie they did execute He stood like lambe before the shearer mute He not complain'd of Peter that denide him Nor yet of Iudas that most false betrayde him Nor those in Pilats hall that did deride him Nor gracelesse Iewes his owne that disobay'd him But his complaint vvas of his father made Not meant to those denide condemn'd betray'de Gods angry vvrath seuerely set gainst sinne The vvares that Sathan sold man
