Th'Ambassador repli'd,
“I'll cause arraign you for a horrid Crime,
“You've made a thousand Rebells in your Time:
“'Twas you, and only you, Curse on you for't,
“Who kill'd our King, and banisht all his Court.
“Your cursed Grapes destroy'd the Nations Health,
“And introduc'd a hellish Common-wealth;
“O drunken Rebell! thy seditious Pate,
“Plots all the Factions, which imbroil the State.
