A divine centurie of spirituall sonnets 006 - ZaunköniG - 02.04.2026
SONNET. VI.
PVre sacrifice, once offred for vs all,
Euen all which were defilde with deadly sinne:
Let me poore deadly sinner, who beginne
With voice and hart repentant thee to call,
And cry that finde my selfe about to fall
Into that quenchlesse lake, repleate within
With howling fiends which euer gnash and grin,
Haue Audience from thy throane celestiall.
Deere spotlesse sacrifice (which didst discend
And as a man for mankindes safetie dy'de,
And ransackt Hels foule dungeon without end:
Enlarging sinners which therein were ty'de)
Since thou didst die that sinners sau'de might bee,
I am a wicked sinner (Lord) saue mee.
