surueyes are such Each mans a wonder of himselfe alone Much wonder may a man suruay at home Much more in many millions disagreeing Informe wits mannors nations habitts being Th' invisiue deiety hearin disclosd Omnipotence in natures frame proposd To leaue sayth scripture man without excuse When faithlesly men cause his powers abuse Wise Dauid first at heauen then earth admires From whence with wondering downe to sea retires Such as descend to deepe quoth he such see The powers of Iehova what they bee His fame is raised by euery dayes successe The rudest region will explaine no lesse When men saith he are tossed in the maine So that their soules consume in sence of paine Sometime are tossed to the cloudy skies Hence in a hast hell low her shipping flyes Billowes carreyring tosse too and fro And wash her as a wherry high and low Now pray they and their sorrow seekes an end Past hope or helpe or harbour to defend The stormy winds are stild the men haue hope When in a calme the ship findes larger scope The men reioyce blesse God and well ariue And in the midd of many perilles thriue T was sure a wonder Iouas vnder went When he in trauaile crossed Ioues intent The monstrous Whale should harbour be to him Who in his soule had harbourd so much sinne Three dayes aliue transported in his Chest Yet all this time with life and safety blest Then layd ashore out of his mighty power Whose quality is solie to deuoure Aegypts red sea to admiration parts And from an ocean to drie land conuert Billowes are walles they passe on dry foot ground When Lo their foes the Aegiptians are drownd No lesse admired was the Arke of Noe Prepard to trauaile in earths ouerthrowe The monstrous Generation mockt his skill How ere t was formd by God Almighties will All earths indeluge he and his are fownd Careyring safe in shipp all others drown'd And by this rare inuentions h●rbinger The world doth alwayes with it selfe conferre Shipping ar embasies he get relation Through farr remote twixt nation and nation Posts packing each way with intelligences Garners to store mortals assure defences The wandrous arke anchours Ararats mount Her docke and now the nations recounte Hauing a patterne how her like to build Then from a future deluge still to sheyld And I make the waters passable they try Phenicanus bowe the first in history Aegypt proceedes the Greeke and many omre Solomon trads to Opior for his ore Thus did deuine prescience ships inuent Mans Cheifest friend the temples ornament Our Lord and his desciples once at sea Great gulfts arise and tempest ouersway The shipp suckes billowes as her onely diett Makes the desciples fearefull and vnquiet He wakes they cry helpe master or wee perish Oft times thus feare by vnbeleefe is cherisht Christ giues the word and bids them all be still And gladly they as soone obey his will So that the faithlesse Iewes are forst to say Oh what is he whom windes and seas obey Examples moue oft more then reasons good where sence and sight ar wholy vnderstood Lo Last in paull his voyage is a wonder When sea and windes teare all their ships in sunder Each boardes conuey and safe the people land Rul'd in the Loue of Paul by highest hand See now at sea the wonders trauail knowes Where God himselfe in omnipotence showes Proclames a power exceeding other places And sea aboue the land with wonder grace Next acts his matchlesse mercy greater part And seeming death to long life doth conuert Daily experience fortisies our faith Should we surmise vnsure what scripture saith Our eighty eight Gibralter and the rest Would with amazement scale our flinty brest As thus on sea Ioue in high wonder passes So him in sea his creatures wonder graces Witnesse the worlds of fish of various birth When waters broad doth simpathise the earth Liuiathan Iohes wonder as a rocke But at a ship maiestickly doth knocke His huge and massy beard whole billowes brusshes He through the ocean as a whirle winde rushes Or as an earthquake makes the seas to shake Deuouring shoules and supping drie the lake His sinnes plowe way in midest of proudest waues Thus Neptune like he all the sea out braues Puffes out a challenge what can quele my might Or who like me can on an ocean light Forgetting how the sea man in meere play Winnes him in sport to throw his bulcke away And drunkard like allyes the Barrell ore Till he appeareth naked one the shore Now gald with darts that cloudes of blood ensue And die the neerer streames another hue The slimy sea horse and the Cowe contend Better then the terre● themselues to send Yet on the ice will wallouw in a rowte And both brought Captiue by the seaman ●lente Men monsters and the Syrens rares to see Yet on the waues such wonders dayly be Scene in the north and Southerne hottest climes Chifely the former in our latter times The boulting sea hogg spouts against the storme And will attend though wild sweete musickes charme Whose consorrs Saluson Codd and Sturgeon bee Such in our natiue soile hath primacie T is said of sages not so ould as true That althings silent shew Gods powers due And that some workes of his mirit admire Rather then reason how and why inquire His prouidence in heauens high influences To the other regions els are sole defences Sunn Moone and starres aire Earth and sea direct Order dispose rule alter get protect Their dispositions haue effects in all In sea in skie or earth men creatures call Their constant motion diuine influx causes The sea store hath at large a share in these A second earths store as the shapes of vs So Brutes horse doggs and all sorts wonderouse Yea vegetiue and minerall appeare The sword fist pike cuts tortise farr and neare All sorts by sholes in order know their like Their formes so strang men in amazement strike For note as euery Clime doth various stand The obiect Zones ruling the nether land So euery sea as is the Climes degree Differs in Creatures shape and rarity All which howere to home bred men vnknowne Yet are in midd of trauaile wondrous showne The rule of Reason is my argument It brings in men things neere so strange Consent For a relation in one body rownd Twixt sea and land was in Creation fownd In Creatures kind though different in forme Yet cannot natures liknesse be out worne This of the wonders on and in the ocean The frutes there off are only trauailes notion See now the sea it selfe miraculouse His height exceeds earths and is fluctuos Yet giueth God sayth Dauid to him bownd Nor can earth by its ouerheight be drownd A miracle exceeding common since And wherin reasons proofe is impotence As is the cause of tides slux and retreate Howere by luner motions made compleate This watry orbe is
