Assvervs Rex.
Let ev'ry Province in the Persian Land,
(Vpon the Day prefixt) prepare his hand,
To make the Channels flow with Rebels blood,
And from the earth to roote the Jewish brood:
And let the softnesse of no partiall heart,
Through melting pitie, love, or false desert,
Spare either young or old, or man, or woman,
But like their faults, so let their plagues be common.
Decreed, and signed by our Princely Grace,
And given at Sushan, from our Royall Place.
(Vpon the Day prefixt) prepare his hand,
To make the Channels flow with Rebels blood,
127
And let the softnesse of no partiall heart,
Through melting pitie, love, or false desert,
Spare either young or old, or man, or woman,
But like their faults, so let their plagues be common.
Decreed, and signed by our Princely Grace,
And given at Sushan, from our Royall Place.
So Haman fill'd with joy (his fortunes blest
With faire successe of his so foule request)
Laid care aside to sleepe, and with the King,
Consum'd the time in jolly banquetting:
Meane while the Iewes, (the poore afflicted Iewes
Perplext, and startl'd with the new-bred newes)
With drooping heads, and selfe-imbracing armes,
Wept forth the Dirge of their ensuing harmes.
With faire successe of his so foule request)
Laid care aside to sleepe, and with the King,
Consum'd the time in jolly banquetting:
Meane while the Iewes, (the poore afflicted Iewes
Perplext, and startl'd with the new-bred newes)
With drooping heads, and selfe-imbracing armes,
Wept forth the Dirge of their ensuing harmes.
