Did he die, or did he not ?
If he had not di'd for thee, Thou hadst liv'd in miserie. Two lives worse then ten deaths be.
And hath any space of breath 'Twixt his sinnes and Saviours death ?
He that loseth gold, though drosse, Tells to all he meets, his crosse : He that sinnes, hath he no losse ?
He that findes a silver vein, Thinks on it, and thinks again : Brings thy Saviours death no gain ?
Who in heart not ever kneels, Neither sinne nor Saviour feels. 114 DIALOGUE DIALOGUE SWEETEST Saviour,
...if my soul Were but worth the having, Quickly should I then controll Any thought of waving. But when all my care and pains Cannot give the name of gains To thy wretch so full of stains ; What delight or hope remains ?
What (childe} is the ballance thine. Thine the poise and measure ?
If I say, Thou shalt be mine ; Finger not my treasure.
What the gains in having thee Do amount to, onely he, Who for man was sola 7, can see ; That transferr d th' accounts to me.
But as I can see no merit, Leading to this favour: So the way to fit me for it, Is beyond my savour.
