Sorrows dear Soveraigne,the Queen of Rest,
That when unlightsome,vast,and indigest
The formeless matter of this world did lie,
Fildst every place with thy Divinitie,

Licence heavens torch, the Scepter of the Day,
Distinguished intercession to thy throne,
That long before, all matchless rul'd alone?
Why letst thou order, orderless, disperse
The fighting parents of this universe?
When earth, the air, and sea, in fire remained,
When fire, the sea, and earth, the air contained,

Chaos had soul without a body then,
Now bodies live without the souls of men...
When earth, the air, and sea, in fire remained,
When fire, the sea, and earth, the air contained,
When air, the earth, and fire, the sea enclosed
When sea, fire, air, in earth were indisposed,
Nothing, as now, remained so out of kind !
