this Cosmosie Is now transform'd to tawny Charon's boate And on the Acheronticke maine doth floate Th'olimpique Globe is now a hollow ball The huge concauitie blacke Plutoe's hall Where shall I stand that I may freely view Earths stage compleate with tragick sceans of wo No meade no groue whose comfortizing hew Might make sad Terror my sad minde forgoe No sun-grac'd mount soule-frighting horrors foe No sun-grac'd mount how can the sun mounts grace When mountaines seeke his countnance to deface See see that mount that was the worldes admire The stately Pyramis of glorious price Whose seau'n hill'd head did ouer all aspire Is now transform'd to Hydra-headed vice Her hellish braine pan of each enterprice On sinnes full number loe she is erect For why Great Pluto was her Architect Blacke Auarice makes sale of Holines And steeming luxurie doth broach her lust Red-tyrannizing wrath doth soules oppresse And cankred Enuie falsifies all trust T' enrich her coffers with soule-choaking dust On slouth and gluttonie they build their blisse Whereon they raise Ambitions Pyramis The frame 's too slender for continuance Too earthly high for soules to builde vpon And of her strength my only esperance Is for to see her sad confusion Whose vapours are the worldes infection Her high esteeme is of high heau'n despisde O see ere long her Babel Babelliz'd Where shall I finde a safe all-peacefull seat To whose prospect the worldes circumference Presents it selfe high Ioue I thee intreate Let Dodon's groue be lauish in expence And scaffoldize her oakes for my defence Forgiue me God for help doth not consist In Dodon's groue nor a Dodonian fist Where shall I stand O heau'n conduct me now Ioue Israellize my tongue and let my voyce Preuayle with thee shew me the manner how To free me from this change O soule reioyce For heau'n hath free'd me from black hels annoies O see O see Ioue sets me free from thrall Such is his loue to them that on him call Loe where I stand vpon a stedfast rocke Whose peerelesse trust is free from all compare See how it brookes the Phlegetonticke shocke And bides what foemen to each other share The raging sea on this side doth it dare On that side flames such is the earthly state Of those from earth seeke them to alienate Now eies prepare and be your sight as cleare As is the Skie when none but Phaetons sire Inhabites it for O alas I feare They will be dazled with smoake and fier That with repulse of heau'n doth downe retire Heart teach my tongue directed by mine eie To be the Chorus to this tragedie Marke you spectators of this tragicke act If any rest vnmetamorphosed O you whose soules with hel are not contract Whose sacred light is not extinguished Whose intellectuall tapers are not fed With Hells flame marke the transformation Wrought by the charmes of this rebellion That sacred female which appear'd to him Who was inspir'd with heau'ns intelligence Who was the last that drunke vpon the brim Of deepe diuining sacred influence That heau'nly one of glorious eminence She whom Apollo clothed with his robe And plac'd hir feet vpon th' inconstant globe So cloath'd his mantle might her shelter be To shrowde her safe from Acheronticke mistes So plac'd hir ground might feede hir egencie Farre as it on necessitie consistes And not t' exceede the bound of heau'nly listes So cloath'd she might to heau'n her minde applie So plac'd to vse it in necessitie But marke O woe her high rebellious starres Their minds ambitioniz'd do seeke her fall And hauing dim'd the Sun with smoaky warres Haue found his dearest one how to appall And mixe her honny with the bitterst gall See how her eies are fixed on the globe Which which O wo hath quite trāsformd her robe Her robe that like the Sun did clearly shine Is now transform'd vnto an earthy coate Of massiue gold because she did combine Affection with the Moon and did remote Her heart from heau'ns book where her name was wrote The globe takes head that was her footstoole set And from her head doth pull her coronet Her twelue starr'd glorious coronet which Ioue Did make her temples rich enuironrie And for the more to manifest his loue Encircled them with faire imbrodetie Of sacred lights in ayre-cleare azurie She is depriued off and doth begin To be the couerture of laethall sin The vines Aedonides dead Murcianie Smooth Philoxenus murders ground Disquiet Eriphila hel's Syrenie Philocrematos the soules deepe wound And whatso els in Hydra's head is found Do maske themselues within her pleasing smile And so with deadly sinne the world beguile What dreadfull sight O do mine eies behold See frosty age that should direct aright The grassie braine that is in vice so bold With heedie doctrine and celestiall light Hath bin conuersing with hells taper night Whose diuelish charmes like Circés sorcerie Haue metamorphosde Eos Eonie Apolloe's herauld that was wont to cheare Night-wounded soules with bright celest'all raies Faire Phosphorus whose looke was wont to feare Infernall hagges that haunt frequented wayes To drawe the soule to hell that wandring strayes Is metamorphosde to a torch of hell And makes his mansi'on-house blacke horrors cell Whose deepe foundation 's raisde from Phlegeton The fi'rie riuer of blacke Orcus hall Whence pillers rise which do themselues vpon Quadrangle wise vphold Erebus wall Worldes trustlesse trust soules vnmistrusted fall Birds vines and floures and eu'ry sundry fruite Do compasse it for best that place they sute For since the spirit the bodies prisner Of heau'nly substance wholy is compact And since the flesh the soules imprisoner Of excrementall earth is wholy fact Since this with that it selfe cannot contract Needes must the soule the earthly prison doubled For all earths pleasures slime be smothered From out the lake a bridge ascends thereto Whereon in female shape a serpent stands Who eies her eie or views her blew vain'd brow With sence-bereauing gloses she inchaunts And when she sees a worldling blind that haunts The pleasure that doth seeme there to be found She soothes with Leucrocutanized sound Thence leades an entrie to a shining hal Bedeckt with flowers of the fairest hew The Thrush the Lark and nights-ioy nightingale There minutize their pleasing laies anew This welcome to the bitter bed of rue This little roome will scarce two wights containe T' enioy their ioy and there in pleasure raigne But next thereto adioynes a spacious roome More fairely farre adorned then the other O woe to him at sinne-awhaping doome That to these shadowes hath his mind giu'n ouer For O he neuer shall his soule recouer If this sweet sinne still feedes him with her smacke And his repentant hand him hales not backe The fraudfull floore of this deceitfull place Is all of quagmires to intrap the wight That treades thereon yet couer'd o're with grasse Of youthful hew al pleasing to earth's sight For so doth satan worke his diu'lish spight This roome will centuries of
