Epig. 20. A Pacification.

By Moses Law, he that desir'd to take
His Captive to his bed, meaning to make
His slave his Wife, must cleane cut of her haire,
Give her new garments, and her nailes must pare:
So let the Church of Rome repudiate
Her Superfluities; find her pristine State,
We two will be one flesh, hate banisht quite,
She shall be unto us an Israelite.
