In commendation of the Author.
VErtere si agricolas, terrā est nunc, laude docendo,
Virgilius dignus: laudibus esse puto,
Dignum hunc, nostrarum, quae animarū cura libellum,
Sit, qui, & nostra docet, vertere corda bene.
Alex. Bradley.
To my worthy friend his Celestiall Husbandry.
THe Husbandry, which these dead leaues doe bring,
Thy liuely voyce did once sweetely sing,
That thy learned and iudicious hearers thought
The Celestiall haruest to them had brought:
Thereby their hearts so did inflame,
That they desir'd to heare it once againe.
Io. Ga.
THe ground mans heartis, Gods word the plow;
The harrow, repentance is, to breake it now;
The seede, obedience, sowen in our liues;
The raine, Gods grace, whereby it also thriues:
Then vse it, and it will bring
Thee to heauen, there to sing.
| Then now | Prayse God for the gaine, |
| And the Author for his paine. |
