First Line: Gid gives not onely corne, for need
Last Line: Fine flowre prest down, and running o're.
Subject(s): God


God gives not onely corne, for need,
But likewise sup'rabundant seed;
Bread for our service, bread for shew;
Meat for our meales, and fragments too:
He gives not poorly, taking some
Between the finger, and the thumb;
But, for our glut, and for our store,
Fine flowre prest down, and running o're.
