My Tongue forgets her Faculty of Speech,

So horrible he seems; his faded Brow

Entrench’d with many a Frown, and conic Beard,

And ſpreading Band admir’d by Modern Saint

Diſaſtrous acts forebode; in his Right hand

Long Scrolls of Paper ſolemnly he waves,

With Characters and Figures dire inſcribed

Grievous to mortal Eye, (ye Gods avert

Such plagues from righteous men) behind him ſtalks

Another Monſter, not unlike himſelf,
