The Holy Scriptures

O that I knew how all thy lights combine, And the configurations of their gloriy! Seeing not only how each verse doth shine,
But all the constellations of the story.
This verse marks that, and both do make a motion Unto a third, that ten leaves off doth lie: Then as dispersed herbs do watch a potion,
These three make up some Christian's destiny:
Such are thy secrets, which my life makes good, And comments on thee: for in ev’rything Thy words do finde me out, and parallels bring,
And in another make me understood. Starres are poore books, and oftentimes do miss: This book of stars lights to eternal bliss.
