[The scottish kirke the English church doe name]

The scottish kirke the English church doe name,
The english church the Scotes a kirke doe call;
Kirke and not church, church and not kirke, O shame!
Your kappa turne in chi, or perishe all:
Assemblies meet, post Bishopes to the court;
If these two Nationes fight, its strangeres sport.
