Offering at heav’n, growing and groaning thither:

Nor doth my flower

Want a spring-shower,

My sins and I joining together.

But while I grow in a straight line,

Still upward bent, as if heav’n were mine own,

Thy anger comes, and I decline:

What frost to that? What pole is not the zone,

Where all things burn,

When thou dost turn,
