CHARLS ! — ah forbeare , forbeare ! lest Mortals prize His Name too dearly ; and Idolatrize , His Name ! Our Losse ! Thrice cursed and forlorne Be that Black Night , which usher'd in this Morne ! CHARLS our Dread-Soveraigne — hold ! lest Out-law'd Sense Bribe , and seduce tame Reason to dispense With those Celestial Powers ; and distrust Heav'n can Beholde such Treason , and prove Just . CHARLS our Dread-Soveraign's murther'd ! — Tremble ! and View what Convulsions Shoulder-shake this Land . Court , Cittie , Countrie , nay three Kingdoms runne To their last Stage , and Set with Him their Sunne . CHARLS our Dread-Soveraign's murther'd at Hi● 〈◊〉 Fell Feinds ! dire Hydra's of a Stiff-neck't-State ! Strange Bodie-Politicke ! whose Members spread , And , Monster-like , swell bigger then their HEAD . CHARLS of Great Britaine ! Hee who was the knowne King of three Realms , lie's murther'd in his Owne . Hee ! Hee ! who liv'd , and Faith's Defender stood , Die'd here to re-Baptize it in His Blood . No more , no more . Fame's Trumpe shall Eccho all The Rest in dreadful Thunder . Such a Fall Great Christendome ne're Pattern'd ; and 't was strange Earth's Center reel'd not at this dismal Change . The Blow struck Britaine blinde ; each well-set Limbe By Dislocation was lop't off in HIM . Though Shee yet live's , Shee live's but to condole Three Bleeding Bodies left without a Soule . RELIGION put 's on Black . Sad LOYALTIE Blushe's and Mourn's to see bright-Majestie Butcher'd by such Assassinates ; nay both Gainst GOD , 'gainst LAW , ALLEGIANCE , and their OATH . Farewell sad Isle ! Farewell ! Thy fatal Glory Is Summ'd Cast up ▪ and Cancell'd in this Story .
