An Angel In Hell
Lucifer;
Ho!,peace here
How by far
Will thou tarry with scare?
There in hell,
Lies temprount.
From beyond he fell,
To this lake-y mount.
By what law did you fell?
By law or by spell?
Thou are renown,
Than to be opposite of clown.
Speak,Ho!,to me!
Thy matter i did crave.
'Peace,Ho!,with me!
Afflict not again with whip'.
"By message was i sent,
To beneath the utmost.
To daniel was i sent,
To wroth him a provost.
But beheld as i go,
A fair beauty that held my soul.
By her was i distracted.
Plea the cruel flame,by whom i'm afflicted.
When from ocean of lust,
My mind sail'd back.
Remembered i the law,
And hasted to Daniel with the sac.
As my feet kissed the dust,
Fastened i to him with the tray,
But to my dismay.
Gabriel had replaced my trust.
Then to me,the creator spell;
'Away from my sight,and hence to hell'".
