"Is't come to this? what? shall the Cheekes of Fame "Stretch't with the breath of learned _Lowden's_ name "Be flagg'd againe, and that great peice of Sence "As rich in Loyaltie, as Eloquence, "Brought to the Test, be found a tricke of State? "Like Chimists tinctures prov'd Adulterate? "The Divell sure such language did atcheive, "To cheate our un-fore-warned Grandame _Eve_; "As this Impostor found out to besot "Th' experienc't _English_ to beleeve A _Scot_. "Who reconcil'd the Covenants doubtfull Sence? "The Commons Argument, or the Cities Pence? "Or did you doubt persistance in one good "Would spoyle the fabrick of your Brotherhood, "Projected first in such a forge of sinne, "Was fit for the grand Divel's hammering. "Or was't Ambition that this damned fact, "Should tell the world you know the sines you act. "The infamie this super-Treason brings, "Blasts more then Murders of your sixtie Kings. "A crime so blacke as being advis'dly done, "Those hold with this no Competition. "Kings only suffer'd then, in this doth lie, "Th' Assacination of Monarchye. "Beyond this sinne no one step can be Trod "If not t'attempt deposing of your God.

"Till forc't by generall hate you cease to rome "The world, and for a plague goe live at home; "Till you resume your povertie, and bee "Reduc'd to begge where none can be so free, "To grant; and may your scabbie Land be all, "Translated to a generall Hospitall. "Let not the Sun afford one gentle ray, "To give you comfort of a Summers day. "But as a Guerdon for your Trayterous warre, "Live cherisht only by the Northerne Starre.
