And lift vp rebell hands to helpe my foe.

The stiffe-neckt priests the subiect to excite

Against his king, a prophet did procure,

Who by the skill of his propheticke sight,

Of peace to come the people should assure,

And that as king I should not long endure:

To which th’vnconstant people credit gaue,

Whose minds in state do alterations craue.
