Oh no, oh no! I know the worst on't now,

10My sentence pass'd I know,

And I no further expectations have

My wither'd hopes again should grow.

Yet 'tis a satisfaction to be sure

I feel the worst I can endure.

Oh that she yet would save

By her miraculous kindness from the grave.

Oh no, &c.] From the Firth MS., which dates the poem 1671, and notes that it was set by Roger Hill.
