For, our great Wars, confusions, and dissenting,
Will frustrate so, endeavours of preventing
Our fears, and setling true peace, in that way,
Whereby, we for a settlement assay;
That he, by whom, lost hopes reviv'd became,
May accidentally, without just blame,
Through breach of trust, make way to bring him in,
Who, hitherto hath most opposed bin.
For, that, which cures, where one distemper lies,
Kills, where are complicated maladies:
Or, else, at least, produceth an effect
Much differing, from what we did expect.
