He letteth in, he letteth out to wend,
2 All that to come into the world desire;
A thousand thousand naked babes attend
4 About him day and night, which doe require,

Ordained hath, he clothes with sinfull mire,
8 And sendeth forth to liue in mortall state,
Till they againe returne backe by the hinder gate.
