And flesh to dust, thy spright to God returne that it did make: For all is vaine (the preacher saith) and all will vs forsake.7.And dust re∣turne to the earth as it was, and the spirit returne to God that gaue it. For then (be sure) thy dayes are neere an end,And flesh dissolued turneth vnto dust,Then yeeld thereto, before perforce thou bend,And in thy strength of youth repose no trust,Nor place thy ioy in earth or earthly lust.Thy nobler part (thy soule) it did descendFrom God, first mouer of all life and grace,Who therefore doth chiefe interest pretendIn thee and it, and will thy soule imbrace,Amidst the heauens of his eternall rest,If faith and loue haue once thy way adrest.8.Vanitie of va∣nities, sayth the Preacher, all is vanitie. Thus haue I (sayth this Preacher) proued true,The proposition that I first did make,That earthly things are vaine in vse and view,That in them we, can not sound comfort take,And that in th'end we must them all forsake.That wisedome only, vertue should insue,And vertue is the way to happinesse,Which after death, doth life againe renue,A life more happie then the world can gesse,When we shall liue from lewd affections free,And in that world no vaine delights shall bee.0
