England's warning-piece; OR, A Caviet for Wicked Sinners to remember their latter end.  
To the Tune of the Rich Merchant Man.  
 

ROuse up dull sinners all  
amend your lives with speed  
Unto the Lord for mercy call  
you never had more need,  
Cast off your wicked sins  
and throw them quite away  
Seek out for grace while you have space  
and go no more astray,  
Then lets with speed repent  
before our time be past  
For every man, woman & child  
must yield to death at last.   

What cruel heinous sins  
are rai●ing in this land  
Men take delight to disobey  
the Lord's holy command,  
For some so ●●ud are grown  
they love their sins so well  
Before they will their ●●●es amend  
th●y'l run headlong to Hell▪  
The covetous miser he  
do 〈◊〉 his bags of Gold,  
'Tis his delight both day and night  
his treasure to behold,  
His riches and his wealth  
his only god he makes  
Before he will relieve the Poor  
he'll rather from them take.  
then let us, &c.   

Also the Blasphemer  
that takes God's name in vain  
If he don't repent he shall take part  
Of hell's eternal pain,  
Than C●ristian people all  
fly from that deadly sin  
With speed I say-without delay  
a go●ly life begin,  
than lets with speed repent  
before our time be past  
  

The Drunkard minds his drink  
and runs in sin each day  
Upon the Lord he doth not think  
but only goes a stray.  
His wealth he doth confound  
his body he destroys  
Besides he doth consume his Soul,  
by l●sin● he heavenly joys,  
than lets with speed repent  
before our time be past,  
For every man woman & child  
must yield to death at last.   

And in these days each one  
are spiteful at each other  
The Father envies his own Son  
and the Sister hates the Brother,  
For now both old and young  
their hairs to malice give  
The rich doth enoy at the Poor  
and hates to see them live.  
then, &c.   

Whor●dome that crying sin,  
is used both day and night,  
In chambering end wantonness  
too many takes delight,  
But let all such beware  
though here they be secure,  
Yet certainly at last they'll find  
a God most fast and sure.  
then, &c.   

The hateful sin of Pride  
is used frequently,  
In City country and in town,  
as you may plainly see  
For lo●●y person mends  
their Robes and rich attire  
Which wi●… 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 at the last  
so hell's eternal fire  
then, &c.   

These are the crying sins  
which are used in these days  
But I wish all men would strive for to  
resrain their evil ways  
Lest that some judgements great  
God doth upon them pour,  
By sending Famine, Plague & Sword  
our bonies to devour,  
then, &c.   

What sad Calamities  
hath hap●ed to this land  
For ●o make men their sins refrain  
yet they'll not understand.  
But daily will presume  
to follow wickedness,  
For day & night some do delight  
God's laws for to transgress,  
then, etc,   

But I wish all such as these  
to have a special care,  
Lest that God's vengeance on them fall  
before they are aware.  
For if that his fierce wrath  
be kindle● on a flame,  
He will confound all such as doth  
despise his holy name.  
then, &c.   

Then let us seek for grace  
to him that sits on high,  
That wein Heaven may have a place  
to rest Eternally  
For who knows how soon  
but Death may on us seize.  
Then let's fear the Lord with one accord  
and not his Will 〈◊〉 ple●●e.  
Then let us with speed repent  
before our time be past,  
For every man, woman and child  
must yield to Death at last
