Some think the Starres Holes through which Heav'n sends Light Then into Heav'n might not ascend Our night 31. Some thinke the Earth a starre then should it Light Send forth abroad upon the Heav'n by Night 32. Th' Arabians will the Starres like Letters spell But who did e're Demonstrate what they tell 33. Experience oft Pretends not so True Art That may mistake from Truth This does not start 34. Fore-knowledge is Divine Man's Witt Ambitious What 's Hali Nabod Bonat Alcabitius 35. Goate-witted Man to climbe will venter if Hee may though hee hangs by th' claws against a cliffe 36. The Art of starres who knows but Hee that made them But Man's bold Ghesse to God's wrong would invade them 37. To found an Art on Figurative Grounds Reason without true Art sondly confounds 38. What though to worke on Earth the Starres Indeavour Since what 's receiv'd is chang'd by the Receivour 39. What though the Starres with lower causes close If in Man's Actions Grace does Interpose 40. The Milky Way which does the Heaven imbrace Shews Men of Small Light may in Heaven find place 41. The Milky Way must with the starres bee rang'd What 's out of Heav'n continues not Unchang'd 42. Light what it is does Sense nay Wit well know Light is scarce light enough it selfe to shew 43. The World 's a picture Light at first was hurld Upon 't Is it God's shadow in the world 44. The Fire next Heav'n's like zeale but not so Cruel â—t Burnes yet not Devours 't is its Own Fuel 45. Th' Aire 's Highest Region's Hot Cold in the Middle The Low'st by Reflexe Warme See Nature's Riddle 46. Thunder presents God's Majesty to th' Eare Which is the Gate of Faith and Holy Feare 47. When Heare and Cold met in the same cloud jolt The Thunder's Sentence Guilt 's the Thunder-bolt 48. When on Mount Sinai Thunders loud did roare They shooke the Mount and th' Holy Cloud they toare 49. One most strange Meteor has it selfe renound The Sinai-Trumpet which it selfe did sound 50. At the Last-Day when all things down are hurl'd Jehovah's Voice shall Trumpet-up the World 51. Lightning Appeares first Thunder's first The Eie Of Conscience sees Guilt before Judgment 's Nigh 52. Lightning the Mother Sav'd the Child within Has kill'd The Soule sav'd Conscience so kills Sinne 53. A Comet is' t the Carbuncle of Sinne Mass'd-up from th' Earth and Hell whence 't did begin 54. How at a Comet ev'ry one does stare When many who thus Gaze worse Comets are 55. Who Many Sunnes sees sees not his Abuse Unlesse of his Mistake hee makes more Use 56. Clammy Smoakes Fir'd and Falling starres some call Their phansie erres Truth from their witt does fall 57. The Foolish Fire oft that by night does move Does by Mistake or Feare Focles make or prove 58.

Shoot up an arrow not farre off 't is found Moves th' Earth then swift enough if it turnes round 76. Shall not the Aire turne faster then the Earth To think it moves not so is' t Truth or Mirth 77. Wonders we have on Earth thus wee may know What things there are Above by what 's Below 78. Clay Sand and Rocke seem of a diff'rent birth So men some Stiffe some Loose some Firme All Earth 79.
