129897When wilt thou be the humble suppliants friend

898And bring him where his suit may be obtained?

899When wilt thou sort an howre great strifes to end?

900Or free that soule which wretchednes hath chained?

901Giue phisicke to the sicke, ease to the pained?

902 The poore, lame, blind, hault, creepe, cry out for (thee,

903 But they nere meet with oportunitie.

130904The patient dies while the Phisitian sleepes,

905The Orphane pines while the oppressor feedes.

906Iustice is feasting while the widow weepes.

907Aduise is sporting while infection breeds.

908Thou graunt'st no time for charitable deeds.

909 Wrath, enuy, treason, rape, and murthers rages,

910 Thy heinous houres wait on them as their Pages.

131911When Trueth and Vertue haue to do with thee,

912A thousand crosses keepe them from thy aide:

913They buie thy helpe, but sinne nere giues a fee,

914He gratis comes, and thou art well apaide,

915As well to heare, as graunt what he hath saide.

916 My COLATINE would else haue come to me,

917 When TARQVIN did, but he was staied by thee.
