So with almighty Ioue I gan to warre,
The Christians good I did torment and sley,
Commaunding all my subiects neare and farre,
Their liues and goods to spoyle and take away;
Which they accomplisht strayght without delay,
Both Paul and Peter, Christe’s disciples twayne,
Th’Apostles, both by mine edict were slayne.
