Oh my deer Infant, Oh my Child, my Child; Unhappy comfort of my nine months pains; And did I bear thee, only for the fire, Was I to that end made a Mother? Oh beauteous innocence, whitnes ill blacked, How to be made a coal couldst thou deserve? Why Wertenberg thou given me, to be taken away So soon, or could not Heaven tell how to punish But first by blessing me. Where are thy flattering smiles, thy pretty kisses, And arms, that wont to writhen about my neck? Whom have I now to leave my old age on? Heaven, you will hear (that which the world does scorn,) The prayers of misery, and souls forlorn: Your anger waxes by delaying stronger, Oh now for mercy be despised no longer. Let him, that makes so many Mother's childless, Make his unhappy, in her fruitfulness. Let him no issue leave to bear his name Or some to right a Father's wronged fame, Our flames to quit; be righteous in your ire, And when he die, let him want funeral fire. exeunt.
