The Creation of the World. ALL Christian People, pray attend, A worthy Poem I have pennd, Relating how the World began, And also the first Fall of Man. When God did Heavn and Earth create, The Waters he divided straight, All by his mighty, blessed Hand; Thus God divided Sea and Land. He gave Command, and there was Light. The Sun by Day, and Moon by Night; The Stars and Planets to withal, Were placed in a spacious Ball. The Cattle, Beasts, and Birds with Wings, And every Kind of creeping Things; All Fruits and Herbs of yielding Seed, Was by the Hand of God decreed. He saw twas good, and likd it well, As we from Holy Word can tell; He in six Days, we understand, Performd the Work he took i[n] Hand: For when the sixth Day was begun, God said, Come let us now make Man; In our own Image shall he be, To glorify our Majesty. Man created, and Woman taken out of his Side, being in the Garden of Eden. THEN Man was made upright and fair, For to adore the heavenly Air; God having breathed on the same, Man straight a living Soul became. The seventh Day our Lord did rest, Which Day he sanctifyd and blest; To keep it holy, we therefore, Should on that Day his Name adore. Thus Man was framed out of Dust, And named Adam at the first: Then every Thing which God had framd, He gave to Adam to be namd. Adam namd them as he thought fit, The Lord was pleasd, and likd of it; And then did make this strict Decree; All Things to Man should subject be. In Edens Garden placd they were, Adornd with Trees of Fruits most rare: God gave these Fruits to Adams Will, Saving that of knowing Good and Ill. God said, Man is alone I see, A Help-mate now for him must be: He took one of his Ribs, we know, And formed him a Mate also.
Now when the Lord he had her framd, Woman, by Adam, she was namd; Saying, This is Flesh and Bone of me, So Man and Wife one Flesh must be. The Fall of Man, by ADAM and EVEs eating the forbidden Fruit. BEFORE the World created was, Satan rebelld against Gods Laws: Legions of Angels with him fell, For Pride, down to the Lake of Hell. Because the Lord did him deny, Mans Happiness he did envy; He thought the World to overthrow, And bring Man to his Gulph and Woe, The Serpent then, I do protest, More subtile was than any Beast: With Eve he held a long Dispute, To taste of the forbidden Fruit. The Serpent said, Be ruld by me, And pluck the Fruit from off the Tree: Youll be as Gods then, (said the Devil) And you will know both Good and Evil. She pluckd the Fruit, it tasted sweet, And gave to Adam for to eat: The which did all their Glory blast, They out of Paradise were cast. God said, The Woman shall be still Subject unto her Husbands Will: Also, I will decree that thou Shall work with Sweat upon thy Brow. Nevertheless the Womans Seed, Shall break the Serpents Head indeed, And thou shalt bruise his Heel. Behold! Thus was our Saviours Birth foretold, CAIN slaying his Brother ABEL. TWO Sons had Adam by his Wife, Subject to Trouble, Care, and Strife, Both Cain and Abel; and I say, Cain being eldest, bore the Sway. For Cain a wretched sinful Man, The first of Murders he began: He did obey the Devils Will, His Brothers Abels Blood to spill. God was offended very sore, And set a Mark on Cain the[r]efore: Murder do cry, we do record, Aloud for Vengeance to the Lord. The World increased full of Evil, Men took Delight to serve the Devil; Seeing Mens Ways, the Lord began To grieve that he at first made Man.
God drowns all the World, except NOAH, And what was in the Ark with him. MANs Wickedness did God annoy, He said, I will all Flesh destroy; Full forty Days Ill cause a Rain, That no Flesh may alive remain; But Noah and his Family, In Favour was with God on high: Three Sons he had when the Flood came, Shem, Ham, and Japhet, calld by Name. God gave Command as he thought good, To build an Ark of Gopher Wood: I shall declare from Holy Writ, The Length, the Breadth, and Height of it. Twas pitchd and made secure and strong, And full three Hundred Cubits long; Full thirty high, and fifty wide, A Door was placed on the Side. Full Stories three, as we do write, A Window made to give them Light: God then thought fit to save the Lives Of Noah, his Wife, his Sons, their Wives. This Ark, in building it appears, Was the Space of one Hundred Years: Both Male and Female of each Kind, Were n the Ark preservd we find. Above the highest Hills we know, This mighty Flood did overthrow; And bore the Ark up by the same, That they might praise Gods holy Name. How the Ark rested after the Waters were gone off the Earth. IN the sixth Month to give Account, The Ark did rest upon a Mount:Then Noah saw the Rain was ceasd, And that the Waters were decreasd. Now when the Flood was more declind, He sent a Raven forth we find, And next a Dove, who staid short Space. For they could find no Resting-place. Then he once more sent forth the same, Back with an Olive-leaf it came: His Joy was then exceeding great, Finding the Waters did abate. He sent his Dove, but to be plain, It never did return again: A Twelvemonths Space, or very nigh, It was before the Ear[t]h was dry. God said to Noah, Come forth in Peace, And let all Things once more increase; He placd his Bow to shew therefore, That he the World would drown no more.
The World was multiplyd once more, But full of Evil as before; They rather chose more greater Evil, And took Delight to serve the Devil. For all that Time Men were so vile, Their Daughters dear for to defile; Which great Abomination was Unto Gods holy, righteous Laws. The World redeemed by our SAVIOURs Cru- cifixion. SOME holy, righteous Men there were Who glorifyd the Lord by Prayr, God blessed their Seed, and did afford Them Gifts to preach his holy Word. And for these righteous Peoples Sake, God did on us Compassion take; And sent his Son on Earth we find, To take the Nature of Mankind. To tell you true, all must have fell Down to the lowest Pit of Hell; Had not our Saviour Christ been slain, Mans blest Redemption to obtain. When buried down to Hell he past, To triumph and chain Satan fast; Who goes no farther than his Chain, The third Day Christ did rise again. Christ is ascended up to Heaven, The Comforter to us is given; One God divided into Three, Without which none can saved be. Address yourselves to Christ Divine, And in his blest Communion join; Shake off your Sins, your Life renew, Be one with Christ, and Christ with you. A Christians Duty Ill impart, To bear no Malice in his Heart; But love his Neighbour as himself, And never covet worldly Pelf. Endeavour still neer to transgress, And shun the Sin of Drunkenness; When such a filthy Sin takes Place, All other Sins comes on apace. So to conclude and make an End, Help us, good Lord, for to amend: That when our sinful Bodies die, Our Souls may reign with Christ on high. Newcastle upon Tyne: Printed and sold by J.
