The Foole Hath Said in His Heart, There Is No God
That God IS , no Man euer made a doubt ,
if doubt some did, they did it not as Men ,
For, faithlesse men , by meere sense , God finde out:
what are these senselesse God-deniers then?
They are not Fiends , for, they haue humane Soules;
and Fiends confesse, with feare , there is a God :
Much lesse, not Angels, Beasts , nor Fish , nor Fowles ,
for, these praise God! What then? Eu'n their owne Rod .
Who doe themselues , tormentingly, confound;
hardning their Hearts: and, so, plague Sinne by Sinne:
Yet ioy in that which doth their Conscience wound:
is't possible such Creatures ere haue bin?
It's possible, for, such there be, God wot,
That know not God , because God knowes them not.
