that marks This worke begun hee doeth anon In order set them downe As Abell Enoch also Noah Three men of great renowne But here we shall not speak of all Though the were men of worth In other place we touch there case But here wee chose on forth A faithfull man whose life now can Learne us if we take head And have good care because we are Accounted for his seed For Paul he saith that we by faith Are Abrams children And if that we his children be So are wee Pilgrams then If we refuse we doe abuse Christ Iesus in his word Who tels us this the servant is Not better then his Lord. This Abraham meeke as a lam When God did call him forth Left friends and land and toke in hand A journey of great worth A Covenant the Lord did grant To him and his for ever Who liu'd upright in his Gods sight Who also fayld him never To Canaan this faithfull man With wife and Loth came thither And ranne his rase from place to place This sayd he knew not whether For God did try him presently Sent famin in the Land And then must he to Egypt flee Yet found Gods helping hand In Egypt there he liv'd in feare Through bewty of his wife He feared sore that some therefore Would take away his life Then Abram sought away he thought Would take away this feare He sayd to all both great and small That she his sister weare When as the King had heard this thing Tooke Sara into cort But God therefore did plage him sore That small was his comfort Sent them away without delay From Egypt the must part To Canaan and there anan Hee tasted this like smart He sayd like thing unto the King Abimelech by name Who tooke hir then from him againe Yet God did help the same The Lord him lov'd this King reproud Who gave him hir againe So strife did cease and he had peace Which did not long remaine He labored soore diged wels store In that his time of rest This Kings heardmē strove with him then And tooke away the best But Abram would not that it should Continue in their hand He that redeems for that it seems It was the best in land He loved deare that water cleare And held it all his life Gave it a name fit for the same Call'd it the well of strife These trials heare kept him in feare Yet were they not quiet done The great'st of all did him befall When as he had a sonne Which must be tayne and also slayne And offred to the Lord For sacrifice Abram likewise Did straight obey his word He tooke Isaack layd on his backe The wood to make the fier The Altar make the wood up layd Then Isaac did inquire Now for the lamb And Abraham Sayd God would it provide Layd him thereon and thereupon Ae Angell to him cryde When he did stand with knyffe in hand To slay his onely sonne With words so mild kill not thy child This work was now neare done Looking aside a Ram he spyde And that he offred there Thus God did proove his faith love And bleste him every where The Lord was nye and stood him by And did increase his strenght That he went forth as man of worth And won the pryse at lenght For why truely he looked hie He sought a city faire Built by the Lord who did aford It him who now is there Whose children all both great small Which seeke the things are best Their time well spend shall in the end Therein his bosome rest Though Sara weak God would not break The Covenant he made Gave hir Isaack of whom we spake Which was a lively shade For she at lenght by faith got strenght Concev'd and bare this sonne By faith alone all sinnes were gone By faith this prise she wonne Gods promis made gave his faith ayde Where to she had an eye Who made hir seed as we may read Like starres upon the skye Hir Daughters all that follow shall Hir lowelynes in life Made hir man Lord in deed and word Although she were his wife Who lov'd hir deare yet Godly feare Made hir him reverence I doe not feare the faithfull heare At this will take offence Humility exalteth hie Be it with great or small When such as pride doe make their guyde At lenght shall cache a fall Those parents blest are at their rest That ran a Godly race Now shall we know how God also Did high exalt the base Rahab may not be quite forgat Who did receve the spyes Though she seem'd light by faith upright Found favour in Gods eyes She dwelt we know in Iereco Which was a sinfull city These spyes came there in deadly feare And she on them had pitty She heard ech day that Iosua Was come to take the land And did beleeve that God would give The same into his hand These spyes were sought but she so wroght That thee preserved were Who let hir proove their faith and love Which tooke away hir feare A token they gave hir that day To hange over the wall Hir house thereby did stand firmely When all the rest did fall And Iosua to spyes did sayè Performe your promis made Who brought hir thence with hir parents And friends under hir shade After we read of Iudahs seed One tooke hir to his wife And through the same Christ Iesus came Which is the Lord of life Let all learne here that live in feare To love and logde such spyes Which now doe preach them cá teach And set before their eyes Their wofull case in such a place Where soul can have no rest And so them bring to Christ their King VVhere they shall both be bleft Here followeth the tryals of Queene Hester with hir Unckle Mordicai that captive in Babylon and how the Lord did highly exalt them HEre shall we find how Hester kind With hir friend Mordicai God turn'd their grief into relief Their sorrows into joy We find it thus King Assurus Did make a royall feast VVhich lasted long his love was strong And stretched to the least Upon a day in Royall ray He for Queene Vasta sent That ech might see the Queene bewte But she would not consent VVherefore the King about this thing Tooke counsell of his wise VVho told him hence a great offence Might to them all arise Their wifes might say shall we obey Queene Vasta hath deny'd Thus shall ech man be vexed than His wife will him deryde These wise then sayd seeke for a mayd Throughout your Kingdoms all And let your grace give hir the place Which did to Hester fall For she was faire had godly care For which the Lord hir blest That she found grace for the Kings face And Vastas roome possest She brought to light all Hamans spite That would the Iewes destroy The ground of this envy of his He tooke srom Mordicai Who did resort and sat in porte Of King Assurus place And safte his life

from men of strife Who afterward found grace This Hamans head was exalted And lified up so hie All charged now to bend and bow When as he past them by But Mordicai would not obey No honour he would give To Haggagite an hypocrite So longe as he did live He knew indeed of wicked seed This Haman up was sprong For he no doubt typed one out Whose dayes will not be long Then he abus'd and sore accus'd The Iewes before the King Charging them hie with trechery And so obtayn'd this thing This King then sent incontenent Throughout his Kingdoms all By such a day to take away Their lives and spoyle them all Then Mordicai did fast and pray And rent his cloaths likewise He put a sacke upon his backe Made many bitter cryes With grief he goes doeth this disclose To Hester contenent And gave hir charge with speeches large Where to hir eare she lent For thus sayd he thinke not to be At rest or save thy life Seeke to the King about this thing To take away the strife It may be thought that God hath brought Thy here unto this place Herein to use and save the Iewes In this their wofull case Hester did say to Mordicay Command the Iewes sayd she Three dayes to faste no foode to taste And likewise pray for me She was in feare none might com neare Till he had for them sent Yet live or dye now goe will I And to the Court she went She found time fit the King did sit Upon his Royall seat Which Scepter by did Hester spye On whom his love was great Held Scepter out then gone was doubt On Scepter she tooke hold Though he sat hie spake lovingly His words made Hester bold Now free from feare she drew him neare Who asked hir intent What she did crave or sought to have He would there to consent She pray'd the King with him to bring This Haman to hir feast This feast she made was but a shade To cover hir unrest The night before this King was sore Trouble no rest could take Sore was he try'd on every side The Lord kept him awake For God would not have that forgot Which should preserve the Iewes Put in his mind this way to find His time that night to use He made with speed men for to read Things that recorded were In reading they found Mordicai That lov'd the King so deare And sav'th his life from men of strife And yet had no reward But now the King did minde the thing And that with good regard Went to the feast which then was drest But Haman was not there For he did lurke had other worke A gallos did prepare For Mordicay and would that day Have hanged him thereon The King knew not this wicked plot And sent for him anon The King did than aske of Haman His counsell in a case What he should doe to that man who He minded for to grace Haman him told things manyfold Which feare we need not name His minde was hie though who but I VVhich turned to his shame Then sayd the King performe ech thing On Mordicai the Iew This like a dart in Hamans hart His currage overthrew Then Mordicay he did aray In Kingly cloathing faire On Kings horse he must mounted be Led through the city there With crowne on head a great man led His horse from place to place And all the way this must he say Thus doeth the King him grace And honour so that he may goe Estemed of all men This being done they goe ech one Unto his place againe And so that day came Mordicay Againe to the Kings porte And Haman went told this event His friends in wofull sorte His wife she resh did not refresh Or comfort him at all His words she heard and for reward Did prophesie his fall This King then sent incontenent For Haman to the feast This hearing than he came anan His banket now was drest Whereat the King did aske what thing It was that Hester sought Were it halfe his she should not mis See here what love had wroght For to be short in humble sorte She asked but hir life And of the Iewes which made him muse Loe here begun the strife She did unfold sayd we are sold To be destroyed all But had it beene for servants then My suite I had let fall The King sayd than were is the man That doeth presume so hie Then answ'red she Haman is hee That sits the King so nye The King was wroth stood up went forth But Haman begged grace Of Hester kind but none could find He now had runne his race He sat upon or leaned on The banke where Hester sat The King came in then did begin His heart to rise thereat Who sayd likewise before mine eyes Will he now force the Queene Therewith came in his chamberlin And told what he had seene After the Pallas stood a gallos That was exceeding hie Hamans invent whereon he ment To hang up Mordicai But God the Lord would not aford That it should come to pas But let the King Haman to bring VVho thereon hanged was Queene Hester then begun attaine VVith meeknes and with teares Sought of the King that he would bring The Iewcs out of their feares VVho letters sent incontenent Performed hir request For breake did he that trecherie So that the Iewes had rest House of Haman the King gave than To Hester that same day Tooke Hamans ring a costly thing And gave it Mordicai The words of one call'd Salamon May here be seene of all Humility shall mount up hie VVhen pride shall have a fall O worthy Queene here have you seene Queene Hesters Pilgrimage VVith great small so goes
