The best turn ruthless butchers, for our sakes;

To save us in a world they recommend,

And yet forbear, themselves with earth content;

What modesty!—such virtues Rome adorn!

And chiefly those who Rome's first honours wear,

Whose name from Jesus, and whose hearts from hell!

And shall a pope-bred princeling crawl ashore,

Replete with venom, guiltless of a sting,

And whistle cut-throats, with those swords that scrap'd

Their barren rocks for wretched sustenance,
