Dives.

MY sense of hearing which was once most nimble To heare each Syrens sugred tongue dissemble, Each sound of pleasure, musick sweet, and worse, Hells language, people swear, blaspeme and curse. But when the cry of Lazarus full of care, Did pierce the heavens, it could not make me heare: Nor could those voyces sent from heaven, by preaching Repent, repent, awake me with their teaching. This sense in hell, instead of musicke sweet, When all the damned shall together meet, Shall be compell'd to heare me helpe to make A cry in hell would make the earth to shake. We desp'rate creatures roaring in hells flame: The damned divells raging in the same: Gods voice of justice like most hideous thunder, Above us with his vengeance boyling under.
