The generall Observation of Fowle.
How sweetly doe all the severall sorts of Heavens Birds, in all Coasts of the World, preach unto Men the prayse of their Makers Wisedome, Power, and Goodnesse, who feedes them and their young ones Summer and Winter with their severall suitable sorts of Foode: although they neither sow nor reape, nor gather into Barnes?
More particularly:
If Birds that neither sow nor reape.Nor store up any food,Constantly find to them and theirsA maker kind and Good!
If man provide eke for his Birds,In Yard, in Coops, in Cage.And each Bird spends in songs and Tunes,His little time and Age!
What care will Man, what care will God,
descriptionPage 92
For's wife and Children take?Millions of Birds and Worlds will God.Sooner then His forsake.
