    The king-becoming graces,
    As justice, verity, temp'rance, stableness,
    Bounty, perseverance, mercy, lowliness,
    Devotion, patience, courage, fortitude,

    In the division of each several crime,
    Acting in many ways.

The king came not. They call'd him dead;
And made his eldest son, one day,
Slave in his father's stead.

God bless the King--I mean the faith's defender;
God bless (no harm in blessing) the pretender;
