                                Our Countries Enemies; and, those that are<lb/>
                                The Foes of Peace, as well as those of Warre ;<lb/>
                                That, Peace may give the Law of Armes her due,<lb/>
                                And, Warre, to Civill-pow'rs, respect may shew.<lb/>
                                For, Kingdomes, nor in Warre not Peace, can stand,<lb/>

                                Vnlesse with warlike stings, themselves they arme.<lb/>
                                Considering this, let none bee so unwise,<lb/>

                                In any place, or age, may well bee spar'd.<lb/>
                                Let not the Sword-man sleight the pow'rfull Crowne ;<lb/>
                                Nor Cowne-men cast the Sword out of their Towne,<lb/>
                                Because it terrifies, or draweth Blood;<lb/>
                                For, otherwhile Phlebotomy is good:<lb/>
                                And, though to kill a Lowse, the Bandams feare;<lb/>

                                It may bee brandish'd by a Cherubin.<lb/>
                                However, from the Sword divide not you<lb/>

                                That is, let Peace, at all times, be that End,<lb/>
