with the burning lamp of cha∣rity in your hands, say with David; I rejoyce at the good news they tell me, let us enter into the house of our Lord.

As the thirsty Hart desires the foun∣tain, so my sovl desires thee, ô my God.
O, how do I desire to be delivered out of this mortall body, & to be with Christ.
