THE VOCATION
THE I PART OF THE III DAY
OF THE II WEEK
<2THE ARGUMENT>2
<2ABRAM>2 <1from>1 Chalde+ <1is Devinely>1 <2CALLED>2<1:>1
<1How>1 Blest <1abroad: His (parted)>1 Nephew <1Thralled>1
(<1In>1 Sodom's <1ayde) to>1 Chedorlaomer<1;>1
Reskew'd <1by Him: Type of that bloody>1 Warr<1:>1
Melchisedec <1His>1 Hap <1congratulates:>1
Ismael <1great; but>1 <2GOD>2 Con-fa|ederates
<1With (promis'd)>1 Isaak, <1and his>1 (<2CHRIST->2<1kinn) Seede>1
<1Which shall in number even the Starres exceede.>1
Lot <1harbours>1 Angels<1; sav'd from>1 Sodom's Fire<1;>1
<1His Wife>1 Transform'd<1: His Daughters>1 foule Desire.
Untill <1this Day>1 (deere <1Muse)>1 on every side
Within straight lists thou hast beene boundified,
Pend in a Path so narrow every-where,
Thou couldst not manage: onely heere and there
(Reaching thine armes over the Railes that close
Thy bounded <1Race)>1 thou caughtst some fragrant Rose,
Some Gilly-flower, or some sweet Sops-in-Wine,
To make a Chaplet thy chast . . .
