35Weep not, nor grudge then, to have lost her sight,
Taught thus, our after stay's but a short night:
But by all soules not by corruption choaked
Let in high rais'd notes that power be invoked.
Calme the rough seas, by which she sayles to rest,
40From sorrowes here, to a kingdome ever blest;
And teach this hymne of her with joy, and sing,
The grave no conquest gets, Death hath no sting.
