Sinfull Curiositie Had Rather Be Acquainted with the Divell, then with God, or His Saints

Haue any made a Cou'nant with blacke Hell ,
and are Familiar with infernall Sprights?
They shall be sought to, wheresoe'er they dwell;
for, many Soules desire to see those sights .

But liues Elias (most familiar
with God and Heau'n ) where great ones most frequent
He liues as in his firie Coach he were;
for, none comes neere so meere an Innocent .

Thus doth the Diuell Lord it o'er the Aire ,
and those that most doe prize It; while his slaues
Are more sought to then Saints or Angels faire,
though such Fiends bideing be among the graues
Then, what so senselesse, as the World , to take
Delight in Diu'ls , and in Hell , for their sake?
