O Glorious Saint whose hart did burne – Scholarly Edition

O Glorious Saint¹Saint Augustine. whose hart did burne,
          And flame with Loue Diuine,
Remember me most sinneful wretch,
          Who hunger staru’d doth pine.
For want of that which thou enjoyest,
          In such aboundant measure;
It is my God that I doe meane,
          My ioy, and all my treasure.
Thy words O Saint are truly sweet,
          Becaus thou dost addresse
Them vnto him who’s only meet
          Our mis’ries to redresse.
