O if thou darst feare this, 003.H08.016 This feare great courage, & high valour is. 003.H08.017 Darst thou ayd mutenous Dutch? darst thou lay 003.H08.018 Thee in Shippes (wooden Sepulchres) a prey 003.H08.019 To leaders rage, to stormes, to shott, to dearth, 003.H08.020 darst thou diue seas, & dungeons of the earth? 003.H08.021 Hast thou couragious fire to thaw the yce 003.H08.022 of frozen North discoueryes, & thrice 003.H08.023 colder then Salamanders?

Courage of straw 003.H08.029 O desperate coward will you seeme bold, & 003.H08.030 To thy foes & his who made thee to stand 003.H08.031 Souldier, in this worlds garrison thus yeilde?

The foule deuill whom thou 003.H08.034 Striu'st to please (for hate not loue) would allow 003.H08.035 thee fayne his whole realme to be ridd. And as 003.H08.036 The worlds all parts wither away, & passe, 003.H08.037 So the worlds selfe (thy other lou'd foe) is 003.H08.038 In her decrepit wayne, & thou loueing this 003.H08.039 dost loue a witherd, & worne strumpett: last 003.H08.040 flesh it selfe's death, & ioyes w%5ch%6 flesh can tast 003.H08.041 Thou lou'st; & thy faire goodly Soule, w%5ch%6 doth 003.H08.042 Giue this flesh power to tast ioy, thou dost loath, 003.H08.043 Seeke true Religion. Oh where? %1Mireus%2 003.H08.044 thinking her vnhous'd here, & fledd from vs 003.H08.045 Seekes her at %1Rome%2, there because he doth know 003.H08.046 That she was there a thousand yeares agoe, 003.H08.047 He loues her raggs; So as we here obay 003.H08.048 the State cloath where the Prince sate yesterday 003.H08.049 %1Crantes%2 to such braue loues will not be inthrald, 003.H08.050 But loues her only who at %1Geneva's%2 calld 003.H08.051 Religion; plaine, simple, solemne, yong, 003.H08.052 Contemptuous, yet vnhandsome; as among 003.H08.053 Lecherous humours there is one who iudges 003.H08.054 Noe wenches wholesome but course country drudges; 003.H08.055om 003.H08.056 Some Preachers (vile ambitious bawdes, & lawes 003.H08.057 Still new like fashions) bidd him thinke that shee 003.H08.058 w%5ch%6 dwells with vs is only perfect, hee 003.H08.059 Embraceth her whom his Godfathers will 003.H08.060 Tender to him being tender. As wards still 003.H08.061 take such wiues as their Guardians offer, or 003.H08.062 Pay values. Careles Phrigius doth abhorre [f.71] 003.H08.063 All, because all cannot be good: As one 003.H08.064 Knowing some weomen whores dares marry none. 003.H08.065 Gracchus loues all as one, & thinkes that soe 003.H08.066 (As weomen doe in diuers Countryes goe 003.H08.067 In diuers habitts, yet are still one kinde:) 003.H08.068 So doth, so is Religion, & this blinde= 003.H08.069 =nesse too much light breeds. But vnmoued thou 003.H08.070 of force but one, & forc'd must one allow, 003.H08.071 And the right. Ask thy father w%5ch%6 is shee, 003.H08.072 Let him ask his. Though truth & falshood bee 003.H08.073 Neare twinnes, yet truth a little elder is. 003.H08.074 Be busy to seeke her, beleiue mee this 003.H08.075 Hee's not of none, or worst, that seekes y%5e%6 best: 003.H08.076 To adore, or scorne an image, or protest 003.H08.077 All may be badd, doubt wisely. In strang way 003.H08.078 to stand inquiring right is not to stray, 003.H08.079 To sleepe, or runn wrong, is. On a high hill 003.H08.080 Ragged & steepe truth dwells, & hee that will 003.H08.081 Reach her, about he must, & about goe, 003.H08.082 And what the hills sodainnesse resists, win soe 003.H08.083 Yet striue so that before Age (deathes twilight) 003.H08.084 Thy minde rest; for none can worke in y%5e%6 night. 003.H08.085 To will implyes delay, therefore now doe, 003.H08.086 Hard deeds the body payne. Hard knowledge to 003.H08.087 the mindes endeauours reach; & misteryes 003.H08.088 Are as the Sun, dazling, yet plaine to all eyes. 003.H08.089 Keepe the truth w%5ch%6 thou hast found, men doe not stand 003.H08.090 in so ill case here that god hath with his hand 003.H08.091 Sign'd Kings blanck-Charters to kill who%M they hate, 003.H08.092 Nor are they %1Vicars%2 but hangmen to fate. [f.71v] 003.H08.093 ffoole & wretch! wilt thou let thy soule be tyed 003.H08.094 To mans lawes, by w%5ch%6 we shall not be tryed 003.H08.095 At the last day?
