183. THE VIRGIN MARY.
To work a wonder, God would have her shown
At once a bud and yet a rose full-blown.
184. ANOTHER.
As sunbeams pierce the glass, and streaming in,
No crack or schism leave i' th' subtle skin:
So the Divine Hand worked and brake no thread,
But, in a mother, kept a maidenhead.
185. GOD.
God, in the holy tongue, they call
The place that filleth all in all.
186. ANOTHER OF GOD.
God's said to leave this place, and for to come
Nearer to that place than to other some,
Of local motion, in no least respect,
But only by impression of effect.
