passe The hatefull traitor closely sits conceal'd In secret Iohn demandeth who it was And Christ in secret thus to him reueal'd Who next receiues a dipped sop of me Shall do the deed the rest hereof are free O Iohn dearst darling of thy dying Lord Earths flower heauens starre pure virgin foe to lust What pen can worthily thy praise record Or blaze thy blessed name with titles iust That foundst such grace to aske and vnderstand When none of all thy fellowes durst demand Soone after in the dish Christ dips a sop And gaue it mildly to his murthering foe Who vnrelenting takes and eates it vp But straight the diuell entred in him tho Vrging his traiterous heart still more and more To execute what he had vowd before That which thou dost saith Christ with speed fulfill Not animating him to do the deed But shewing by these words the great good will He had that mans saluation should proceed For which absented from his Fathers sight His loue thinkes long till it be finisht quite Whereto these words were spoke none then did know Onely perhaps false Iudas vnderstood They thought Christ bade him buy and to bestow Some thing in almes to do poore people good Or for the Feast prouide thus Error too Helpes forward what this Traitor meanes to do But see how apt mans frailty is to sinne When humbled thoughts with pride are ouerthrowne These late-amaz'd Disciples now begin Forgetting quite Christs last example showne To reason hard in words and disagree Who should among themselues the greatest be Ah fondlings is your Master cumbred now With humane error of his dying day Hath one amongst your selues conspired how By trecherie to take his life away And can you warnd hereof mis-spend your time In idle folly of ambitious crime O plucke vp sinne whilst yet the root is young Surcease this variance breeding but offence Weepe your owne losse waile your Redeemers wrong And wish to die with him in innocence Rather then striue to be exalted hier As pamperd worldlings in their pride desire But Christ orecome with that exceeding loue Which from the world had chose them for his owne Surprest with griefe forbearing to reproue This folly and defect of duty showne Yet to make knowne their faults and strife appease He gently warnes them in like words to these Supremacie and honour is embrac't Of profane Potentates and earthly kings Not worthy those desires whose thoughts are plac't On better loue of God and heauenly things For such though greatest must inferiour be And minister to those of low degree The master who doth sit at meat alone Exceeds the seruant that attends his will Yet you to me this duty haue not showne For I do minister among you still And by humility example giue How such as are my followers ought to liue But you for my sake haue abandon'd cleane The late-lou'd world renounc't your selues and all And in my greatst temptations alwayes been Abiding with me since I did you call And therefore I appointed haue for ye As God my Father doth appoint for me I meane a Kingdome not of earthly blisse Such as mortality aspires to get But one in heauen that perpetuall is Where at my table you shall drinke and eate Where you shall sit on seates as is decreed Iudging the twelue great Tribes of Israels seed So spake our Lord when from the table rose Iudas full fraught with hel-nurc't desperate sinne And hastily out of the house he goes Leauing his Master and the rest within True type of heauenly blisse at latter day When no bad bides nor good doth go away And now doth Christ in sweetest speech commend His loue and mutuall concord to the rest With promise that he would from heauen send Another Comforter to make them blest Whose presence should abide for euermore And teach them all the truth they heard before His peace likewise he doth among them leaue Exhorting perfect vnity in one A growing branches from the Vine receiue Their fruit and beare not of themselues alone Forewarning too that troubles hate and spite Should shortly for his Name vpon them light Which to indure without grudge or despaire He cheares them vp by his examples still Concluding lastly with a feruent prayer That God would blesse and keepe them from all ill As that together they in one might grow As he himselfe was with the Father so The night is now farre spent the Supper done The Grace is said the Table tooke away The Ghests are risen and the worke begun For which the Sonne of God on earth did stay Iudas is comming with a kisse to greet him And with the Eleuen Christ goes forth to meet him A place there is where raisd from lower ground A goodly fruitfull Mountaine threats the skie Whose top with Oliue branches shadowed round Forbids the heat of heauens bright burning Eye And ouerlookes a garden faire and sweet Close situated to Gethseman street Hither as was his often former guise When he in priuate for his Church would pray Or did his owne Disciples catechise This last night our Redeemer tooke his way That so he in a Garden might restore What Adam in a Garden lost before And by the way thus warnes All you this night Shall run in scandall great because of me For it is written I will surely smite The Shepheard and his sheepe shall scattered be But when I risen am from Death below To Galilee before you will I go Ah poore Disciples weake and miserable Now is at hand the comfort-killing houre The houre of feare and darknesse palpable Whose foggie dampe shall in your hearts obscure Bright beames of Faith and yet lend light to see How fraile and feeble of your selues you be In one way now together all do go In diuers shortly all shall scattered slie True faithfull followers now your selues you show As ready with your Lord to liue and die Yet danted with base feare you shortly shall Renounce your truth your faith your Lord all Thus still fresh cause of sorrow Christ doth find His ouer-burdened sences to dismay Ere-while he troubled was to thinke in mind That one of his owne Twelue should him betray And now not one alone but all the rest Shall false their faith leaue their Lord distrest Alas sweet Sauiour who shall comfort now The dreadfull terror of this sad nights feare Thy Father threats the sword with angry brow Against thee for our sins which thou must beare Thy mother wails thy friends shal all forsake thee Whilst death deuising foes conspire to take thee O might the merit of thy bitter paines Endur'd for all alike alike redound To all of Adams sonnes whom death detaines Some consolation herein would be found But O deare God! thou knowst how few indeed For all these torments shall the better speed And to th' increasing of thy griefes dost see Millions of mis-beleeuing Soules mis-led With sinnes sweet bait or infidelitie Shall run into perdition void of dread Scorning thy
