First Line: Gods boundless mercy is (to sinfull man) Last Line: Full, and fild-full, then when full-fild before. Subject(s): God
Gods boundlesse mercy is (to sinfull man) Like to the ever-wealthy Ocean: Which though it sends forth thousand streams, 'tis ne're Known, or els seen to be the emptier: And though it takes all in, 'tis yet no more Full, and fild-full, then when full-fild before.
