THE fissherman, doth caste his nettes in sea,
In hope at lengthe, an happie hale to haue,
And is content, longe time to pause, and staie,
Thoughe, nothing elles hee see, besides the waue:
Yet, onelie trust for thinges vnseene dothe serue,
Which feedes him ofte, till he doth almoste sterue.
If fisshermen, haue then suche constant hope,
For hidden thinges, and such as doe decaie,
Let Christians then, the eies of faith houlde ope,
And thinke not longe, for that which lastes for aie,
And on
Wherof eache iote, shalbee fulfil'de at laste.
Sed, quae praestanda est & sine teste, fide.
