AWake, awake O England, sweet England now awake, And to thy Prayers speedily do thou thyself betake, The Lord thy God is coming within the Say so clear, Repent therefore O England, the day it draweth near, The dreadful day of vengeance is shortly now at hand. When fearful burning fire, shall wast both Sea and Land And all men's hearts shall fail them to see such things appear. Repent therefore, &c. The worldly wise and prudent shall fa●l bestdes their wits, And wish the hills to cover them in these their frantics fits No succour help nor comfort, for them shall then appear. Repent therefore, &c. The Seas and rivers Running shall roar in grievous wise, The B●…ast● in Pastures feeding, shall st●ain forth grievous cries, The skies shall flame with fire, the Earth wall burn so clear, Repent, &c. The glorious holy Angels shall then their trumpets sound, The dead shall hear their voices, as they lie in the ground. Then all the graves shall open, and dead men shall appear.

And show how in their life-time they did themselves abuse, And every man's own consciences for witness shall appear. Repent, &c.

Why seeketh thou deceitfully, to purchase treasure great, Or why dost thou through usury. the bread of poor men eat. Why doth thy life and living, so filthily appear, Repent, &c. Wherefore let all good people, upon their knees proceed, I making earnest prayers, for never was more need. That God may spare these punishments even for his mercy mere. And give us grace to bear in mind, the judgement day is near. London, Printed for F. Coles, T. Vere, and W. Gilbertson
