To my booke accused.
Welcome my booke, more welcome unto mee
With stripes and wounds, then to have scaped free.
'Tis all I lookt for when I sent thee forth,
That most would deem thee vile, and of no worth.
For 'tis the lot of truth (as 'tis of those
That godly live) to have the most her foes.
And sure where wrested Stripture doth withhold
The beames of truth, and give us drosse for gold:
There nought a truth more doubtful can conclude,
Then doth the favour of the multitude:
Which hadst thou purchast, I should then have fear'd,
I had obscur'd, what now I hope I 've clear'd,
And shall, by God's assistance, still make good,
Against all bawlings of the carping brood.
