Oh that my head were waters, and mine eyes a fountain of tears, that I might weep day and night, even with the weeping of Jazer, yea mourn with a great mourning, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon, for good Josiah, when he was taken away.

O Weal of Kent, take up a wailing for her, the brightest star in all your firmament is set. O Hawkherst, make a bitter lamentation for her, whose coming among you, was like the rain upon the mown grass, as showers that water the earth.

In respect ⟨p. 79⟩of her self, it is happiness, not suffering her to be longer absent from him here in the body, having with her swift motion finished her course so soon. But why in respect of us, is this Citizen of heaven so soon gone from us? when but somewhat more then in the midst of her days?
