Who own’d no prince and who obey no law;
There were reformers of each different sort,
Foes to the laws, the priesthood, and the court;
Some on their favourite plans alone intent,
Some purely angry and malevolent:
The rash were proud to blame their country’s laws;
The vain, to seem supporters of a cause;
One call’d for change, that he would dread to see;
Another sigh’d for Gallic liberty!
And numbers joining with the forward crew,
