Why should her Treasons any more annoy
Thy precious Saints and Nations thus destroy,
Lets make her Drink in that invenom'd Cup
She fills for us shall she not swill it up;
Will none fall on, provoked by flaming ire,
Will none fall on, provok't by flaming ire,
To Eat her Flesh, and burn her in the fire?
