In middest of their mournfull Tragedy,

Ay wont to laugh, when them I heard to cry,

And blow the fire, which them to ashes brent:

Their God himselfe, grieu’d at my libertie,

Shot many a dart at me with fiers intent,

But I them warded all with wary gouernment.

But all in vaine: no fort can be so strong, xi

Ne fleshly brest can armed be so sound,

But will at last be wonne with battrie long,

Or vnawares[302] at disauantage found;
