And soon that after thirty days are gone,Thou shalt have Grapes right as Ruby red,Which is our Adrop, our Usifur, and our
red Lead.
FOr in a short time thou shalt find, that
this green will be overcome by the
Azure, and that by the pale wan colour,
which will at length come to a Citrine,
which Citrine shall endure for the space
of 46 days.
Then shall the heavenly Fire descend,
and illuminate the Earth with inconcei∣vable
Glory; the Crown of thy Labours
descriptionPage 354
shall be brought unto thee, when our
Sol shall sit in the South, shining with
redness incomparable.
This is our Tyre, our Ba••ilisk, our red
Poppy of the Rock, our Adrop, our Ʋsi∣fur,
our red Lead, our Lion devouring
all things: This is our true Light, our
Earth glorified; rejoyce now, for our
King hath passed from death to life, and
now possesseth the Keys of both Death
and Hell, and over him nothing now
hath power.
