[As Iustice is cause of peace and policie] |
A dyall of dayly Contemplacion, or deuine exercise of the mind | ||
[As Iustice is cause of peace and policie]
As Iustice is cause of peace and policie,And VVell of welfare in euery Region,
So without Iustice Kingdomes feele contrarie,
For robberie, theft, pouerty, and oppression,
Murmure, discord, and desolation,
Confiskes many a Kingdome ane huge Impery,
From theyr late former good condicion,
For want of Iustice through iniquity.
