GABRIELL HIS SALVTATION TO MARIE 1. OVT from the orders of the Angels all Sings holie hymnes about the throne of grace The Lord commands to come vnto his call The winged Gabriell straight to embrace An happie charge for Eues vnhappie race Who since hir husbands fall had lyen within The foule alluring baytes of filthie sin 2. Swiftlie he came sweetlie the Lord did say Thou that hes oft my message borne in yre Kings to destroy and countries did deny My god-hoode great with hote consuming fyre Go now in peace let all thy rich attyre Be Azure hew bright starres therein thou fix I will my justice with my mercie mix 3. I will redeeme recall I will reclame Not by desert but by adoption Not for their merites but my glories Name No not compelde but at my option The house of Iacob by my onelie Sonne Borne of a Mayde and the beleeuers all That breathes beneath my euer-mouing Ball. 4. I will perfite my promise made indeede To the first man through facilnes that fell That his begot should bruse the serpents head Whose birth in bewtie should the rest excell Then where that Virgine rests I will thee tell Of all the Tribes that I haue taine for chose The famous Nazareth doth her enclose 5. Pure are her thoughts chaste are her actions all Firme is her faith and feruentlie doth pray Diuine in Spirite deuote on me to call Resolu'd in heart at euerie houre to pay The death her dew or yet content to stay So are her vertues knowne so flyes her fame Betrothde she is blest Marie heght her name 6. Salute the mayde with humble dewties dew Discharge my charge with reuerence and feare Seene shall it be although it seeme vntrew That of my Sonne she is the mother deare For when with glorie great thou drawes neare And warbles forth thy voice thou shall perceaue The holie Spirite the Sauiour conceaue 7. Thus said the Lord when Eoles windie Fanne The weeping dew from tender trees had rent And when the horned-Moone with visage wanne Her borrowed light had back to Tytan sent That all the night before he had her lent And this he said while all the hoste of heauen Proclaimde his glore for such commission giuen 8. And hauing said his armes abroad he threw And blest the messinger before him lay Then silent sat away the Angell flew And in the Aire his wings did wyde display He claue the cloudes and cut the vapors gray He made the heauens admire the waters wonder To see his glore and heare his thuds of thunder 9. With holie Canticles and hymnes he sings The ioyfull newes of mans saluation In flames of fyre were grauen betweene his wings The Birth the Buriall and the Passion The Death the Rysing and Conception Of Iesus Christ yea and the totall summe Of all his wondrous works that were to come 10. Dronke with delights sweete Nazareth he soght That place he compast thryfe aroud and ouer In Maries presence shortlie is he broght Graue was his grace while he on wing did houer At last his heauen-borne sight he did vncouer And with a shudder all the house he spangled With twinkling dew vnto his plumes were tangled 11. Amazde at first but not greatlie agast To see his glorie great she changed hew A blushing rednes swiftlie came and past And dayntilie her whitenes did subdew The lightning rayes that from her eye-lids flew When sodaine ioy made tumbling teares ouerflow Would soone haue set an heape of hearts on low 12.
