SONNET. XLIIII.

O Lord increase in mee true faith, and loue: Faith of saluation in thine onely sonne, And his loue that hath my soules health begunne, Who from my soule (his incense) will remoue That deadly sting which sinne did vnder shoue. O Lord increase my zeale, and let it runne Through my soules Organes: that thereby bee donne A pleasing incense to thy throane aboue: O Lord increase in mee that earnest care To make a mends for those high sinnes by past, And equall charitie to worke welfare, Vnto my neighbours bound in fetters fast: That by faith, Loue, true zeale, and charitie, (Through thee) my soule may find felicitie.
