BONAVENT. cap. 1. Soliloq.

Ah sweet Iesus, pierce the marrow of my soule with the health∣full shafts of thy love, that if may truly burne, and melt, and lan∣guish with the onely desire of thee; that it may desire to be dis∣solv'd, and to be with thee: Let it hunger alone for the bread of life; let it thirst after thee, the spring and fountaine of eternall light, the streame of true pleasure: let it alwayes desire thee, seeke thee, and find thee, and sweetly rest in thee.
