Syons Calamitye

The EEBO scan of this engraving is a bit unclear, so today I want to transcribe, as well I can, the small text on this sheet. I'll be organizing the text according to the letter to which image and text are indexed.

General notes:

• All question marks in this engraving are vertically reflected. 
• Most of the poetic text is italicized, except on select non-italicized words. I have reversed this and italicized select words.
• The colophon underneath the poetic text reads, "Are to be ſold by Nathaniell Gilbye at the Eaglle & childe in Lumbard ſtreete"
• The collector has marked the date as "May ". 12 . 1643" 
• An unindexed image, above all and at the center of the top, is the eye of God. This is a left eye, surrounded by rays and casting down the ray seen in "L."
