- | |
Foul shapes that hate the day again grown bold | B |
Late driven hence infested fane and court | C |
The laurels of our victory were amort | C |
Vile King craft with his breed of blood and gold | C |
Took heart to see the ancient wrongs infold | C |
Our life and childish figments which disport | C |
I' that pale light whose essence mayn't support | C |
Realities in Freedom's hall to hold | C |
Sick carnival did troop But at the height | C |
Of that debauch while yet could be erased | C |
The smut and spittle from the sacred chart | C |
Written in blood a man whose soul gave light | C |
Intolerable to kings their power abased | C |
As he subdued the empire of the heart | C |
