HINC LACHRIMAE; OR THE AUTHOR TO AURORA: 38, by             Poet's Biography
First Line: Believe, azile, when of thee I think
Last Line: He safest lives that quiet conscience hath.
Alternate Author Name(s): William Boxworth


Believe, Azile, when of thee I think,
As such sweet thoughts are in me very rife,
I'm ready of prepared bane to drink,
Or any poison that will end my life;
And still because my still consuming heart
Enjoys no rest, wisht rest I never have,
But of turmoils and troubles I have part;
But 'tis not trouble that a soul must save,
A sweet content doth lead the way from wrath:
He safest lives that quiet conscience hath.
