Wearied by faithless friends and restless foes,

To certain hazard doth His life expose:

April 27, 1646. May 5, 1646.

When through your quarters in a mean disguise

He to His countrymen for succour flies,

Who met a brave occasion then to save

Their native King from His untimely grave:

Had he from them such fair reception gain'd,

Wherewith ev'n Achish David entertain'd:

But faith to Him or hospitable laws
