YOu that in England once bare sway, expecting no mishap to come: Here is a looking-glasse wherein you may behold the fall of some. That once were held in great esteem, of noble birth and high renowne. By Fortunes frown and fickle wheele, are from their dignities cast down. Their names and titles are exprest, whereby that you may understand What men they were, and what great sway, of late they carryed in England. The Earle of Cambridge he was one a noble Scotch-man born and bred, By title cal'd Duke Hambleton, which was adjudg'd to lose his head.
The Earl of Holland he also appointed was for the like death, And the Lord Goring was condemn'd by th' bloody axe to lose his breath. Lord Capell bore a valiant minde, as is to Town and Country known: Yet through miscarriage in his wayes he hath his fortunes overthrown. With Sir John Owen, a Welsh-man stout, as ever yet drew sword in field. These five had sentence past on them and unto death were forc't to yeeld. The sixt day of the month of March, they were condemned all to dye: That others may behold with fear, and learn to mend their lives thereby.

THese men heaven knowes once little thought that ever they should have come to this, Tis like they thought twas for the best, when as 'tis sure they did amisse. In former times who was so much set by as brave Duke Hamilton, Beloved in City, Town and Court, before the English wars begun. Or who was greater in request, then was the Earle of Holland bold, He was in favour with the best and liv'd in pleasures manifold. His tongue seemed an Oracle his words with some became a law, And no man durst against him speake, the people were so kept in awe. And this 'tis of Lord Goring said, that when he was in full command, He sided with the Pattentees, which was a burden to England.
The people when Lord Capell lived, for charity gave him good report And many heavy moane do make that he should dye in such a sort. As for the valiant Welch-man he, was one that never betray'd his trust, But to his former principles tis said that he was true and just. But howsoever it came to passe, tis sure these five men gave consent Whereby that men should beare up armes for to affront the Parliament. Ringleaders they were proved to be, of them that bred the latter jars, In Colchester and other parts, whereby to raise the second wars. For these and other such like faults three of them lost each one a life, God grant the death of these three men, may make an end of all the strife.
