jects, who were ready to hang the Authors of these Ballads. But he that does not blot out all that’s past, and frankly embrace their New Allegiance, or remembers ought but what shall preserve Universal Peace and Charity, let him be Anathema; For he were a strange man that should now be unsatisfied, when those that writ against the King do now write for Him, and those who wrote for Him, need now write no more.

Farewell.
