       If that a Sinners sighes be Angels foode,
       Or that repentant teares be Angels wine,
       Accept O Lord in this most pensiue moode,
       These hearty sighes and dolefull plaints of mine.
           That went with Peter forth most sinfully,
           But not as Peter did, weepe bitterly.
