Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGGPlain path'd Experience th'unlearned's guide | A |
Her simple followers evidently shows | B |
Sometimes what Schoolmen scarcely can decide | A |
Nor yet wise Reason absolutely knows | B |
In making trial of a murther wrought | C |
If the vile actors of the heinous deed | D |
Near the dead body happily be brought | C |
Oft it hath been prov'd the breathless corse will bleed | D |
She's coming near that my poor heart hath slain | E |
Long since departed to the world no more | F |
The ancient wounds no longer can contain | E |
But fall to bleeding as they did before | F |
But what of this Should she to death be led | G |
It furthers justice but helps not the dead | G |
