For those tired of the snow and cold--
I came across this broadside yesterday.
It's dated 1571.
A prayer to be sayd in the end of the mornyng
prayer daily (through the dioeces of Norwich) during
the tyme of this hard and sharp wether of frost and snow
to craue mercye for our synnes and release of this sore
punishment at the mercifull handes of our good and gracious God
It's a long prayer of 3 columns on a broadside page and speaks about
"Behold our lamentable estate,
The deepe snow hath overwhelmed the earth
the nipping frost hath consumed the fruits thereof...
the cattell do groue & make piteouse complaynt"
catalogued under
Winter -- England -- Norwich -- Religious aspects.
