In Adam's fall
We sinned all.

Thy life to mend,
God's Book attend

The Cat doth play,
And after slay.

A Dog will bite
A thief at night.

The Eagle's flight
Is out of sight.

The idle Fool
Is whipped at school.

As runs the Glass.
Man's life doth pass

My book and Heart
Shall never part.

Job feels the rod,
Yet blesses God.

Proud Korah's troop
Was swallowed up

The Lion bold
The Lamb doth hold.

The Moon gives light
In time of night.

Nightingales sing
In time of spring.

The royal Oak, it was the tree
That saved his royal majesty.

Peter denies
His Lord, and cries.

Queen Esther comes in royal state,
To save the Jews from dismal fate.

Rachel doth mourn
For her first born.

Samuel anoints
Whom God appoints

Time cuts down all
Both great and small

Uriah's beauteous wife
Made David seek his life.

Whales in the sea
God's voice obey.

Xerxes the Great did die,
And so must you and I.

Youth forward slips,
Death soonest nips.

Zaccheus, he
Did climb the tree,
His Lord to see
