Similies on the same subiect.

LIke as a Torch directs vs in the darke,
So doth religion lighten all our hopes.
As these our bodies liue by earthly food,
So true religion doth our soules most good.
As yron maketh soft the rudest earth,
So doth religion temper hardest hearts.
As sore eyes cannot gaze against the Sun,
So wicked minds brooke no religion.
As want of food the body hunger-sterues,
So pines the soule through pure religions lacke.
As med'cines make sicke bodies whole and sound,
So doth religion wash out errours wound.
