      "O might those sighs and tears return again",
      "Into my breast and eyes, which I have spent,",
      "That I might in this holy discontent",
      "Mourn with some fruit, as I have mourned in vain;",
      "In mine Idolatry what showers of rain",
      "Mine eyes did waste! what griefs my heart did rent!",
      "That sufferance was my sin; now I repent;",
      "'Cause I did suffer I must suffer pain.",
      "Th' hydropic drunkard, and night-scouting thief,",
      "The itchy lecher, and self-tickling proud",
      "Have the remembrance of past joys for relief",
      "Of comming ills. To (poor) me is allowed",
      "No ease; for long, yet vehement grief hath been",
      "Th' effect and cause, the punishment and sin."
