sir john davis - the dignity of man - ghizela rowe lyrics

Loading...

o! what is man (great maker of mankind!)
that thou to him so great respect dost beare!
that thou adornst him with so bright a mind
mak’st him a king, and euen an angel’s peere!

o! what a liuely life, what heauenly power
what spreading vertue, what a sparkling fire!
how great, how plentifull, how rich a dower
dost thou within this dying flesh inspire!

thou leau’st thy print in other works of thine
but thy whole image thou in man hast writ;
there cannot be a creature more diuine
except (like thee) it should be infinit

but it exceeds man’s thought, to thinke how hie
god hath raisd man, since god a man became;
the angels doe admire this misterie
and are astonisht when they view the same
