First Line: O! Times most bad
Last Line: And perish at the last.
Subject(s): Despair
1. O! Times most bad,
Without the scope
Of hope
Of better to be had!
2. Where shall I goe,
Or whither run
To shun
This publique overthrow?
3. No places are
(This I am sure)
Secure
In this our wasting Warre.
4. Some storms w'ave past;
Yet we must all
Down fall,
And perish at the last.
