DECASTICHON VIRULENTUM IN GALERATUM LYCAONTA MARINUM, &c.
Proh dolor, ecce, maris lupus, et nequissimus ursus,Carnificis vitulus, Britonumque bubulcus iniquus,
Conflatus vitulus vel Oreb, vel Salmane vel Zeb,
Carduus, et crudelis Asaphque Datan reprobatus,
Blandus et Achitophel regis, scelus omne Britannum,
Ecclesias qui namque Thomas confundit ubique,
Non sacer iste Thomas, sed duro corde Goleas,
320
Fundens asphaltum, precor! Hunc versum lege cautum;
Asperius nihil est misero quum surget in altum.
