THE INCENTIVE.
1. THe world, with silke & golden
chaines, the diuel, with horrid
and crooked irons, the flesh with
libidinous flames of Hel, through
force, through craft, through indu∣stry,
here openly, and here couertly
labour very busily to ensnare, and
entrap man's hart. Vnlesse, good
IESV, thou as from an ambush dost
speedily reskue it, with thy succours,
it is lost, it is vndone.
2. Looke, what the world sets
forth to sale are al laid open, but the
wines she carouseth in her golden
cup lye hid the brimms are al bes∣meared
with honny, the gal with in
is it, that hurts, that kils. Happy he
who by diuine power can wel ac∣quit
himself of these snares, these
nets.

3. And now behold how amou∣rously
good IESVS. loues, embra∣ceth,
puls this hart vnto himself,
and hugs and clings it to his hart,
Doe so good IESV; place my hart
in thy Heauen; I say, with thy de∣lights
and loue, fil, and ouerflow it.
