163.00F.004 Treason, and durst not turne to whence he is fled,
163.00F.005 Or like a thiefe, which till deaths doome be read,
163.00F.006 Wisheth himselfe delivered from prison;
163.00F.007 But damn'd and hal'd to execution,
163.00F.008 Wisheth that still he might be imprisoned;
163.00F.009 Yet grace, if thou repent, thou canst not lack;
163.00F.010 But who shall give thee that grace to beginne?
163.00F.011 Oh make thy selfe with holy mourning black,
163.00F.012 And red with blushing, as thou art with sinne;
163.00F.013 Or wash thee in Christs blood, which hath this /(might
163.00F.014 That being red, it dies red soules to white.
