Anne Bradstreet - For the restoration of my dear Husband from a burning Ague, June, 1661.
Work rating: Low

When feares and sorrowes me besett,
Then did`st thou rid me out;
When heart did faint and spirits quail,
Thou comforts me about.
Thou rais`st him vp I feard to loose,
Regau`st me him again:
Distempers thou didst chase away;
With strenght didst him sustain.
My thankfull heart, with Pen record
The Goodnes of thy God;
Let thy obedience testefye
He taught thee by his rod.
And with his staffe did thee support,
That thou by both may`st learn;
And `twixt the good and evill way,
At last, thou mig`st discern.
Praises to him who hath not left
My Soul as destitute;
Nor turnd his ear away from me,
But graunted hath my Suit.
