Muse. IF this small sparke of thy great flame had sight O happie I but more if thou suruay mee Thy dying Muse bewailing comes to light And thus begins halfe forc'd for to obey thee O restles man thy wandring I lament Ah ah I mourn thou canst not liue cōtent Pilgrime To liue below my minde I cannot bow To loue a priuate life O there I smart To mount beyonde my meanes I know not how To stay at home still cross'd I breake mine heart And Muse take heede I finde such loue in Strangers Makes mee affect all Heathnicke tortring dangers Muse. But O deare Soule that life is full of cares Great heat great colde great want great feare great paine A passionate toyle with anxious despaires Where plagues and pestes and murders grow amaine Thy Pilgrimage a tragicke stadge of sorrow May spende at night and nothing on the morrow Pilgrime No Pilgrimage the VVell-spring is of Wit The clearest Fountaine whence graue VVisdome springs The Seate of Knowledge where Science still doth sit A breathing Iudgement deckt with prudent things This thou call'st Sorrow great Ioye is and Pleasure If I bee rich in Minde no VVealth I measure Muse. But O recorde how manie times I know VVith bitter Teares thou long'dst to see this Soyle And come thou weariest and wouldst make a show There is no pleasure but in Forraine Toyle And so forgetst the Sowre and loath'st the Sweete To wracke thy Bodie and to bruise thy Feete Pilgrime All Rares are deare Contentment followes Paine No Heathnicke partes can bee surueighed but feare And dangers too But heere 's a glorious gaine I see those thinges which others haue by eare They reade they heare they dreame reportes affect But by experience I trie the effect Muse. In Cabines they on Mappes and Globes finde out The wayes the lengths the breadth the heights the Pole And they can wander all the VVorlde about And lie in Bedde and all thy sightes controle Though by experience thou hast nat'rall sight They haue by learning supernat'rall light Pilgrime Thou knowst Muse I had rather see one Land Be true eye-sight than all the VVorlde by Cairt Two Birdes in flight and one fast in mine hand VVhich of them both belonges most to my pairt One eye-witnesse is more than ten which heare I dare affirime the Trueth when they forbeare Muse. Heere thou preuail'st with Mis'ries I must daunt Thy Braines Recall the house-bred Scorpion sting The hissing Serpent in thy way that haunts And crawling Snakes which dammage often bring The byting Viper and the Quadraxe spred That serue for Courtaines to thy Campane Bedde Pilgrime I know the VVorld-wide Fieldes my Lodging is And ven'mous thinges attende my fearefull sleepe But in this Case my Comfort is oft this The watchfull Lizard my bare Face doeth keepe By day I feede her shee saues mee by night And so to trauaile I haue more than right Muse. The cracking Thunder of the stormie Nightes The fierie burning of the parching Day The Sauage dealing of those Barbrous VVightes The Turkish Tributes and Arabian Pay May bee strong meanes to stoppe thy swift returne To make thee liue in rest and heere sojourne Pilgrime All these Extreames can neuer make mee shrinke Though Earth-quakes mooue mee more than all the rest And I rejoyce when sometimes I doe thinke On what is past what comes the LORD knowes best I can attempt no plotte and then attaine Vnlesse I suffer losse in reaping gaine Muse. The Seas and Floods where fatall perills lie The rau'nous Beastes that liue in VVildernesse The irkesome VVoods the sandie Desarts drie The drouth thou thol'st in thy deare-bought distresse I doe conjure these Feares to make thee stay Since I nor Reason can not mooue delay Pilgrime Though scorching Sunne and scarce of raine I bide These plagues thou sing'st and else what can befall My minde is firme my standart cannot slide The light of Nature I must trauell call The more I see the more I learne to know Since I reape gaine thereby what canst thou show Muse. The losse of Friendes their counsell and their sight The tender loue in their rancountringes oft In this thy brightest day turnes darkest night When thou must court harde heartes and leaue the soft What greater pleasure can maintaine thy mirth Than liue amongst thine owne of blood and birth Pilgrime The fremdest man the truest friend to me A stranger is the Sainct whome I adore For manie friendes from faithfull friendship flee Law-bound affection failes than framelinges more What alienes show it lastes and comes of loue But consanguin'tie dies so I remoue Muse. A rolling stone can neuer gather mosse Age will consume what painefull youth vpliftes Bee carefull bee and scrape some mundane drosse And in thy prime lay out thy wittie shiftes When thou grow'st old want'st both means health O what a kinsman then is worldlie Wealth Pilgrime The Sea-man and the Souldiour had they feare Of what ensues might flee their fatall sorrow Who cloathes the lillies that so faire appeare Prouides for mee to day and eke to morrow Liue where I will GODS prouidence is there So I triumph in minde a figge for care Muse. If deare to mee thou wouldst resolue to stay Our Noble Peares they would maintaine thy state If not I should finde out another way To moue the worlde to succour thine hard fate And I shall cloathe and lende and feede thee too Affect my veine and all this I will doe Pilgrime To feede mee Slaue thou knowst I am thy Lord And can command thee when I please my selfe VVouldst thou to rest my restlesse minde accorde And ballance deare-bought Fame with terrene Pelfe No as the Earth helde but one Alexander So onelie I auow All where to wander Muse. VVhat hast thou wonne when thou hast gotte thy will A momentanie shaddowe of strange sightes Though with content thou thy conceite doest fill Thou canst not lende the worlde these true delightes Though thy selfe loue to these attemptes contract thee VVhere ten thee praise there 's fiue that will detract thee Pilgrime It 's for mine owne mindes sake thou knowst I wander Not I nor none the worldes great voyce can make Thinkst thou mee bound to them a compt to render And would vaine fooles I trauell'd for their sake No I well know there is no gallant spirit Vnlesse a knaue but will yeelde mee my merit Muse. Thou trauel'st aye but where 's thy meanes to doe it Thou hast
Show mee what griefe disasters in thee breede Thy sight poore wretch telles me thou hast no pleasure In Rest in Toyle in Life nor worldlie treasure So happie thou sit downe heere by my side And rest thy selfe thy paine is wondrous sore For I I still in this one place doe bide But thou all-where thy Pennance dost explore Thou neuer supst nor dynst into one parte Nor ly'st two nightes vnchanging of thine airte Thy life is harde I must confesse deare Brother For where I liue my Friendes dwell heere about mee But in thy chaunge thou seest now one now other And all are Strangers that each day may doubt thee I judge the cause of this good GOD relieue thee To see a Soule so vext it quite doth grieue mee My solitarie life is harde indeede And I chastize my selfe with hungrie Fare On Hearbes raw Rootes on Snailes and Frogges I feede And what GOD giues mee freelie I it share Three dayes in eight I fast for my Soules better And in this time I feede on Bread and VVater All this is nought to thine with mine I rest For thou must toyle and fast against thy will If it fall late then thou must runne in haste To seeke thy Lodging fortunate but Skill I haue the shelter of this Her'mitage But vniuersall is thy Pilgrimage Alace deare Sonne I mourne to see thy life Though in the passions of thy paines thou joyes VVouldst thou turne Hermite thou mightst end thy strife My Fare is rude but Prayer mee imployes Rest rest and rest the Heauens as soone they wonne That rest with mee as they all-where that runne Yet I confesse thy Pennance doth exceede My merite farre wonne by these austiere meanes For thou with Turkes and Paganes eat'st thy Bread Hast feare of death when thou none other weanes They plague thy Purse and Hunger plagues thy Bellie VVhiles in this Cottage I contentment swellie I see no stormie Seas vvhere Pirates liue No Murthrer dare encroach vpon my State I feare no Thiefe nor at wilde Beastes doe grieue I neede not buy nor spende nor lende nor frate All these and manie moe attende thy wayes Ah poore slaine Pilgrime so the Hermite sayes Thou seemst to bee of some farre Northerne Nation And I doe maruell that thou walkst alone Good Companie should bee thy chiefe Solation For thou hast Plaines and Hilles to wander on Long VVoods and Desartes eu'rie where must finde Hadst thou a second thou hadst a quiet minde But wandring Sonne these thinges no more I touch I must refresh thee with some Hermites cheare For I poore I can heere afforde but such As Hearbes raw Rootes browne Bread and VVater cleare Yet if thou wilt conceale this gift of mine I haue good Flesh good Fish good Bread good Wine Although to common Pilgrimes I not show it Yet for Ierusalem which thou hast seene Thou shalt haue part although the VVorld should know it Thou art as holie as euer I haue beene So welcome Sonne welcome to mee I sweare Thou shalt finde more with mee than Tauerne cheare Heere on this greene growne Hill I spreade my Table VVell couerd ou'r with Leaues of diuerse sortes VVho say that Hermites fast is but a fable VVee haue the best the Peasantes haue the Ortes And Pilgrime holde thy peace wee shall bee merrie For heere 's good VVine which tastes of the true Berrie Fill and content thy long desires apace And bee not shamefast Pilgrimes must bee forthie VVee Hermites seldome vse to say a Grace To pray too much at Meate that 's vnworthie And what thou leau'st thy Budget shall possesse I cannot want when thou mayst finde distresse And there a Carrouse of the sweetest Wyne That growes twixt Piemont and Callabrian shore Hast thou enough nowe tell me all is thine When this is done I 'le finde another Bore And giue me out thy Callabast to fill That thou mayst drinke when thou discends this hill Thus pensiue Pilgrime thy humble Hermite greetes thee And yet me thinkes thou lookes not like a Frater If thou be Catholike my Soule shee treats thee For this good worke of mine to say a Pater Thou seemes to smyle and will not fall a Prayer I lay my life thou art a meere betrayer O Pilgrimagious sonne now faith I knowe thee At Mount Serata nyne yeares past and more I askd at thee VVhat wast thou VVho did owe thee And thou reply'd A stranger seeking Ore I answer'd Hermits neuer keepe no Golde O Pilgrime now on faith now you are solde How dar'st thou man within our bounds repare An Hereticke would make a Christian show Hast thou no conscience for thy Soule to care There is but one way to the Heauens wee know And wilt thou liue a Schismatike or Atheist No rather Pilgrime turne with mee a Papist Our ghostly father Christes Vicare on earth Is highly with thy old done deeds displeased And I doe knowe for all thy showe of mirth If thou be found these trickes can not be meased A suddaine blast will blow thee in the aire Therefore when free to saue thy life beware And yet it seemes thou car'st not what I speake But thinkes me damn'd for all my poore profession I stand in doubt my selfe the trueth I seeke And of my life there is my true confession When I was young luxurious vice I lou'd Libidinous abhominablely mou'd I know thou knowst what Priests doe with young boyes It is a common sinne in young and old O strange gainst Nature man his lust employes They seeme as Saincts and Hell-hounds are enrold Their filthie deeds make my poore conscience tremble And with Religion gainst my heart dissemble I will be plaine I am thy Countrey man And father Thomson is my Christiane name In Angus was I borne but after when I left the Schooles to Italy I came And first turn'd Frier of great Sainct Francis Order But loathing that turn'd Hermite on this Border Know'st thou Father Mophet that Iesuit Priest As I heare say hee lay in Prison long It 's saide that once hee should haue thee confest If not the VVorldes wide voyce doth thee wrong And Father Crichton is hee yet aliue For Lecherie they say hee could not thriue And I heare say that Father Gray is dead And Father Gordon drawes neare to his Graue And Father White at Rhynsberg hath great neede And Father Browne would seeme to play the Knaue And Father Hebron wee call Bonauenture Hee studies more than his Wittes well may venture They say Father Anderson hath left Rome For strife which in our Scots Colledge fell out And Father Leslie hee doth brooke his Roome There none of them dealt honestlie I doubt Our young Scots Studentes they hunger to the heart The Pope allowes good meanes and they it part That Iesuit Greene in Wolmets is come rich And Father Cumming in Venice's gone madde And Lylle at Bridges is become a VVretch For Ogelbie alace I must bee sadde They say at Glasgow hee was hanged there Hee 's now a
