Who once in triumph led his sumpter moil

200Proudly bedecked with the Altar's spoil.

Nor at Bizantium's sack how Mahomet

In St. Sophia's Church his horses set.

Nor how Belshazzar at his drunken feasts

Carous'd in holy vessels to his guests:

Nor he that did the books and anthems tear,

Which in the daily Stations used were.

These were poor essays of imperfect crimes,

Fit for beginners in unlearned times,
