If that prefixèd time be come which Thou hast set:

Through pure and fervent faith, I hope now to be placed

In th'everlasting bliss; which with Thy precious blood

Thou purchase didst for us." With that a sigh he fet,

And straight a cloudy mist his senses overcast.

His lips waxed pale and wan, like damask rose's bud

Cast from the stalk; or like in field to purple flower

Which languisheth, being shred by culter as it past.

A trembling chilly cold ran through their veins, which were

With eyes brimful of tears to see his fatal hour:
