The prosperous villany triumph'd o'er the Crown,

And hurl'd the best of monarchs from his Throne.

O tell it not in Gath, nor Ascalon!

The best of monarchs fell by impious power,

Th' unspotted Victim for the guilty bled.

He bow'd, he fell, there where he bow'd he fell down dead;

Baptiz'd Blest Martyr in his sacred gore.

V.

Nor could those tempests in the giddy State,

O mighty Prince, thy loyalty abate.
