Saint Stephen.

GOd can make our faces to shine like Angels to daunt our enemies; and he here can make us to see his face to shine in glory, to comfort our Souls: Why then should we fear our fiercest enemies; why then should we not be confident of the aide of our loving and powerfull God.

Thy blessed power is like thy Light, But our frail fear is like our night.

MY Soul being plac'st on the wings of contemplati∣on, with them raises me to the Regions of feli∣city.
