<L>Then <HI>Faction</HI> comes with his confu&s;ed breath,</L>
<L>Breaths forth his mind, and whi&s;pers in the ear,</L>
<L>To tho&s;e who is by him accounted dear;</L>
<L>And freely doth unfold how he is bent</L>
<L>Again&s;t his Prince and Lawful Government:</L>
<L>None &s;trives to reconcile that &s;trange in demur,</L>
<L>They value not what dangers may incur;</L>
<L><HI>Ambitions</HI> Pride did more and more increa&s;e,</L>
<L>For to divide the Land, di&s;turb the Peace.</L>
<L>In this Caballing &s;train they did run on,</L>
<L>Contrary to the Laws of God and Man:</L>
<L>The Root and Branch of this Rebellious Tree</L>
<L>Grew great, and &s;pread it &s;elf by Villany.</L>
<L>Here one lies down, who freely did con&s;pire</L>
<L>To &s;pew forth Coals of mo&s;t contentious Fire:</L>
<L>Then <HI>Satan</HI> comes, and in the&s;e Words he &s;aid,</L>
<L><HI>There's nothing can be done without my aid;</HI></L>
<L><HI>'Twas I that fir&s;t did put you in the way,</HI></L>
<L><HI>Then follow on your blows, make no delay:</HI></L>
<L><HI>And I will be as helpful to you &s;till</HI></L>
<L><HI>In your proceedings, to my utmo&s;t &s;kill.</HI></L>
<L>No &s;ooner <HI>Satan</HI> had this Promi&s;e made,</L>
<L>But wretched Man mo&s;t willingly obey'd.</L>
<L><HI>Rebellion</HI> taken Root, like Evil Weeds</L>
<L>Did grow, from Thought to Words, then hainous Deeds.</L>
<L>Behold where <HI>Satan</HI> lies! what pains he takes</L>
<L>To blow the Flames, and va&s;t confu&s;ion makes.</L>
<L>He at the Root doth like a Serpent lurk,</L>
<L>Seeking to &s;et his Ingines all at work;</L>
<L>To make de&s;ention both in Church and State,</L>
<L>And all through very hope of being great:</L>
<L><GAP DESC="illegible" REASON="page cropped" EXTENT="1+ lines"></L>
<L>All in <UNCLEAR>di&s;order by</UNCLEAR> <GAP DESC="illegible" REASON="page cropped" EXTENT="2 words"></L>
<L>Till Ruine had the Nation over-&s;pread.</L>
<L>We &s;ee in part by what they took in hand,</L>
<L>They'd &s;lay the Subjects to pre&s;erve the Land:</L>
<L>But &s;ee the ju&s;t reward of their out-rage,</L>
<L>They are become Examples of this Age.</L>
<L>When from <HI>Rebellion</HI> all their hopes doth flow,</L>
<L>The hand of Ju&s;tice gives the fatal Blow:</L>
<L>The Figure here doth fairly repre&s;ent</L>
<L>The final Fall of Traytors In&s;olent.</L>
<L>Ob&s;erve the Root, there <HI>Satan</HI> he in&s;nares,</L>
<L>Behold the Tree, and &s;ee what Fruit &s;he bears!</L>
<L>With lofty Arms &s;he all her Branches &s;preads,</L>
<L>Her chiefe&s;t Fruit &s;he bears, is Traytors Heads.</L>
<L>By Trea&s;on they their own de&s;truction wrought,</L>
<L>And at the length was here to Ju&s;tice brought,</L>
<L>Tho&s;e that behold their fatal de&s;tiny,</L>
<L>Keeping the Paths of Love and Loyalty;</L>
<L>Then Peace and Plenty dayly will increa&s;e,</L>
<L>And all the Land be fill'd with Joy and Peace.</L>
<L>Let Loyalty be found through all the Lands,</L>
<L>And e'ry Subject in obedience &s;tand:</L>
<L>To Royal <HI>JAMES,</HI> our Gracious Soveraign Lord,</L>
<L>Let all the Nation pray with one accord:</L>
<L>That tho&s;e which &s;hall &s;ucceed from Age to Age,</L>
<L>May never &s;ee the like of this out-rage;</L>
<L>But he pre&s;erv'd from violence &s;ecure,</L>
<L>So long as &s;hall the Sun and Moon endure.</L>
