    With an untitled tyrant bloody-sceptred,
    When shalt thou see thy wholesome days again,
    Since that the truest issue of thy throne
    By his own interdiction stands accursed
    And does blaspheme his breed?

For what is he they follow? Truly, gentlemen,
A bloody tyrant and a homicide;

A base foul stone, made precious by the foil
Of England's chair, where he is falsely set;
One that hath ever been God's enemy.
