Hendrick Laurentz excud . Amstelrodam . 1628.

GReat King protect vs with thy gratious hand , Or else Armenius will o're spred this Land : For if in England th' enemy doth appeare , This is the shape of him we need to feare . He raiseth Factions , and that brings in iarres , Which broacheth Errors , and vpholds the wars : The Netherlands ruine , he sought to bring , In England now he doth the selfe same thing . To rayle , to write , to publish bitter gall , To change Religi●n , and subuert vs all . His Squint-ey'd lookes & Lansa-Wolsa gowne , Shewes how Religion h● wil soone throw down . His grynding pate with weather-Cocks turn'd braine , Seeketh the Churches tenets for to staine : The Christal streams of truth he shuns most pure , The tryall of Gods word he 'le not endure : But vnto Error cast his blinking eye , Presuming Truth doth not the same espie . Heresie vpon a stately Beast doth stand , Armenius bids him welcome , holds his hand . Truth by her brightnesse , and her sincere heart , Shewes that with Heresie shee takes no par. Treades on their Mounteb inke & Cozning tricks , Blowne in his eares , by Pe●agius and Iesuites . Which makes his Wind-mil for promotions grace Publish his Bookes abroad in euery place : And begs protection for his workes of wonder , Which against Truth he bellowes forth like thunder . Thus doth Armenius to preferment rise , By Equiuocating and his Cheuerill lyes : And Truth to all appeales to open view , Bidding all Heresies for ere adew Desiring our great CHARLES to take to heart ▪ And by the Parlament make Armenius smart . Which being done England shall euer blesse The King , the State , the Churches happinesse , And if for telling truth , I burne or frye ; What then deserues he that tels a lye ? 1628. FINIS .
