that you see the wretched strangers, Their babies at their backs
with their poor luggage, Plodding to th' ports
and coasts for transportation, And that you sit as kings in your desires, Authority quite silenced by your brawl, And you in ruff of your opinions clothed; What had you got?
I'll tell you: you had taught How insolence and strong hand
should prevail, How order should be quelled;
and by this pattern Not one of you should live an aged man, For other ruffians,
as their fancies wrought, With self same hand,
self reasons, and self right, Would shark on you
with their poor luggage, Plodding to th' ports
and coasts for transportation, And that you sit as kings in your desires, Authority quite silenced by your brawl, And you in ruff of your opinions clothed; What had you got?
I'll tell you: you had taught How insolence and strong hand
should prevail, How order should be quelled;
and by this pattern Not one of you should live an aged man, For other ruffians,
as their fancies wrought, With self same hand,
self reasons, and self right, Would shark on you
