ELEG. 3.
COnfused horror, and confounding shame, Have blur'd the beauty, and renowned name Of righteous Israel; Israels fruitfull land, Entail'd by Heaven, with the usurping hand Of uncontroled Gentiles, is laid waste, And with the spoile so ruine is defac't; The angry mouth of Iustice blowes the fires Of hasty vengeance, whose quicke flame aspires, With fury to that place, which heaven did sever, For Iacob and his holy seed for ever; No part, no secret angle of the Land, Which beares no marke of heavens enraged hand.
