Sions Elegies: Threnodia III, Eleg. 13

NO mortall power, nor supernall might,
Not Lucifer, nor no infernall spright,
Nor all together joyn'd in one commission,
Can thinke or act, without divine permission;
Man wils, Heaven breathes successe, or not, upon it;
What good, what evill befals, but heaven hath done it?
Vpon his right hand, Health and Honors stand,
And flaming Scourges on the other hand:
Since then the States of good or evill depend
Vpon his will, (fond mortall) thou attend
Vpon his Wisdome; Why should living Dust
Complaine on Heaven, because that Heaven is just?
