TEXT_EXPL_XML <p>Lord, what a coyle men keepe, and, with what care<lb/>
                                Their Pistolls, and, their Swords doe they prepare,<lb/>
                                To be in readinessse? and, how they load<lb/>
                                Themselves with Irons, when they ride abroad?<lb/>
                                How wise and wary too, can they become,<lb/>
                                To fortifie their persons up at home,<lb/>
                                With lockes, and barres? and such domestick-Armes,<lb/>
                                As may secure their bodies, there, from harmes?<lb/>
                                However, when all's done, we see, their foes<lb/>
                                Breake in, sometimes, and worke their overthrowes.<lb/>
                                For, though (about themselves, with Cable-quoiles,<lb/>
                                They could inclose a hundred thousand miles)<lb/>
                                The gunshot of a slanderous tongue, may smite,<lb/>
                                Their Fame quite through it, to the very White.<lb/>
                                Yea, more (though, there, from others, they were free)<lb/>
                                They wounded, by themselves, to death might be,<lb/>
                                Except their Innocence, more guards them, than<lb/>
                                The strength of twenty royall Armies, can.<lb/>
                                If, therefore, thou thy Spoylers, wilt beguile,<lb/>
                                Thou must be armed, like this Crocodile ;<lb/>
                                Ev'n with such nat'rall Armour (ev'ry day)<lb/>
                                As no man can bestowe, or take away:<lb/>
                                For, spitefull Malice, at one time or other,<lb/>
                                Will pierce all borrowed Armours, put together.<lb/>
                                Without, let Patience durifie thy Skin;<lb/>
                                Let Innocencie, line thy heart within ;<lb/>
                                Let constant Fortitude, unite them so,<lb/>
                                That, they may breake the force of ev'ry blow:<lb/>
                                And, when thou thus art arm'd, if ill thou speed;<lb/>
                                Let me sustaine the Mischiefe, in thy steed.
