What bloody deed is this !—Thou injur'd Essex !
My fame is soild 10 all succeeding times ;
But Heaven alone can view my breaking heart-
Then let its will be done.

From hence, let proud, resisting mortals know
The arm parental, and the indulgent blow.
To Heaven's corrective rod submissive bend;
Adore its wisdom, on its power depend;
Whilst ruling justice guides eternal sway,
Let nature tremble, and let man obey.

THE END,
