Failed at Rome’s gates, and blood seemed vainly poured
Where in Christ’s name the crownèd infidel
Of France wrought murder with the arms of hell.

God’s providence is not blind, but, full of eyes,
It searches all the refuges of lies;
And in his time and way the accursed things
Before whose evil feet thy battle-gage
Has clashed defiance from hot youth to age
Shall perish.”
