God's High Vice-gerent at the bar accuse;

They but reviv'd the evidence and charge,

Your pois'nous Declarations laid at large;

Though they condemn'd or made his life their spoil,

450You were the setters forc'd him to the toil:

For you whose fatal hand the warrant writ,

The prisoner did for execution fit;

And if their axe invade the Regal throat,

Remember you first murder'd Him by vote.

Thus they receive your tennis at the bound,
