[In his sonnes daies, for wickednesse and sinne]

In his sonnes daies, for wickednesse and sinne,
God rent the Tribes, from Salomon his bloud.
Kingdome of Iudah, here did first begin,
To which the Tribe of Benia-min fast stood.
The ten Tribes King, (as holy Scriptures tell)
Was after this, termd King of Israel.
