LVI. Upon Death.
Death's a cold Comforter to Girls and Boys, Who wedded are unto their Childish Toys: More Grim he looks upon our lustful Youth, Who, against Knowledge, •light God's saving Truth ⟨p. 63⟩But most of all, he dismal is to those, Who once professed the Truth, they now oppose.

Death has a Dart, a Sting, which Poison is, As all will find, who do of Glory miss. This Sting is Sin, the Laws it's Strength, and he, Or they, will find it so, who damned be.
