HERE man who first should heauenlie thinges attaine,
And then, to world his sences should incline:
First, vndergoes the worlde with might, and maine,
And then, at foote doth drawe the lawes deuine.
Thus GOD hee beares, and Mammon in his minde:
But Mammon first, and GOD doth come behinde.
Oh worldlinges fonde, that ioyne these two so ill,
The league is nought, throwe doune the worlde which speede:
Take vp the lawe, according to his will.
First seeke for heauen, and then for worldly neede.
But those that first their worldlie wishe doe serue,
Their gaine, is losse, and seeke their soules to sterue.
Luc. 16.
Matth. 6.
Non potestis deo
seruire & Mam-
monae.
Primum quaerite
regnum dei, &c.
