   • 1593, Thomas Nashe, Christ's Tears Over Jerusalem:

     O, favour thy glory though I have displeased thee with folly. I will not be so unweaponed jeopardous to overthrow both thy cause and my credit at once by over-Atlasing mine invention. That which I undertake shall be only to throw one light dart at their faces from afar, and exhort all able pens to arm themselves against thine atheistical maledictors.
