FArewell Farewell deceitful Pride, for thou hast me betray'd, Upon vain hopes I here relyed, when I the Traitor play'd: Had I not wandred with Lord Grey, which proves my overthrow, I never had beheld this day, to feel the Fatal Blow.
Too much I hearkned to that Crew, which never did me good, But now I bid the World adieu, and here my dearest blood Must be a Ransome for my Crime, to pay the Death I owe, And Justice now has found a time, to strike the fatal Blow.
Alas! I have not quite forgot the favour that I found, When I was in that Helish Plot, ah! this my soul doth Wound: That I again should be misled, into a sea of wooe, And here I must lay down my head, unto the fatal Blow. My proud aspiring heart I find, has brought me to this thing Ah! how could I be so unkind to such a Gracious King: Which once did interceed for me, as I in conscience know, But now pale Death must set me free, then wellcome fatal Blow. And now at last I did Rebell, against him in his Throne, I was most like an Infidel, as I may justly own: But this has wrought my lifes decay, and final Overthrow, And Juyice will no longer stay, but strike the Fatal Blow.
While I did in Rebellion stand, some lives did you pay full dear, A sad confusion in the Land but now I bear a share, And brought to my deserved doom whether I would or no, No Friend I have that will presume, to stop the fatal Blow. False Friends alas hath ruin'd me, and brought me to this place, And now the sad effect I see, will end in my disgrace: My Lady I must leave behind, and my sweet Babes in wooe. For Destiny hath now design'd for me the fatal Blow: And now my last and dying Speech, is to advise you all, Both friends and Foes I do beseech, be warned by my fall: Let Loyolty your actions Crown, then you'l be free from woe, And now I willingly lye down, come strike the fatal Blow.
