I Think not on the State, nor am concern d Which way foever the great Helm is turn'd 3 But as that Son whofe Father's danger nigh Did force his native dumbnefs, and untie The fetter'd Organs; fo this is a caufe That will excufe the breach of Nature's Laws. Silence were n o w a fin, nay Paffion n ow Wife men themfelves for Merit would allow. W h a t noble eye could fee (and carelefs pafs) The dying Lion kick'd by every Afs ? Has Charles fo broke God's Laws^ he muft not have A quiet Crown, nor yet a quiet Grave ? Tombs have been Sanctuaries; Thieves lie there Secure from all their penalty and fear. Great Charles his double mifery was this, Unfaithful Friends, ignoble Enemies. Had any Heathen been this Prince s foe, H e would have wept to fee him injur d fo. His Title was his Crime, they'd reafon good T o quarrel at the Right they had withftood. He broke God's Laws, and therefore he mnft die ; And what fliall then become of thee and I ? Slander muft follow Treafon ; but yet ftay, Take not our Reafon with our King away. Though you have feiz'd upon all our defence^ Yet do not fequefter our common Senfe. B Chriji |
