A Metrical History of Christianity | ||
1. Pride.
Pride Blossoms, turrits up its Cocks Come highBalconies prelates nests above the Skie.
Doth set the Mitre higher than the Crown.
A Paultry Clarke above a Kings renown.
My Urinall will certainly Discry
The Popes of Rome Sick of this tympany.
Cock bells of Pride do flowt their livers, Spot
And Swell them with red water, and the rot.
