Rhyme Scheme: ABAAACCAADEDEAAEEEBB| Because you have thrown of your Prelate Lord | A |
| And with stiff Vowes renounc'd his Liturgie | B |
| To seise the widdow'd whore Pluralitie | A |
| From them whose sin ye envi'd not abhor'd | A |
| Dare ye for this adjure the Civill Sword | A |
| To force our Consciences that Christ set free | C |
| And ride us with a classic Hierarchy | C |
| Taught ye by meer A S and Rotherford | A |
| Men whose Life Learning Faith and pure intent | A |
| Would have been held in high esteem with Paul | D |
| Must now he nam'd and printed Hereticks | E |
| By shallow Edwards and Scotch what d'ye call | D |
| But we do hope to find out all your tricks | E |
| Your plots and packing wors then those of Trent | A |
| That so the Parliament | A |
| May with their wholsom and preventive Shears | E |
| Clip your Phylacteries though bauk your Ears | E |
| And succour our just Fears | E |
| When they shall read this clearly in your charge | B |
| New Presbyter is but Old Priest Writ Large | B |
