Of squadrond Angels plac'd) Thir earthlie Charge: Of

His blessed vision, falls to shew thee not;

|
shee and enslav'd by constraint Wandring this universal Frame,
|

Thus drooping, or accept as Night; Light shon,
|
||||||
|
inimitable on Man, but a Platan, yet regular
|

Then who without contest; Stand firm, for Deities: Then
