    But must I confess how I liked him,
    How glad I was he had come like a guest in quiet, to drink at my
    water-trough
    And depart peaceful, pacified, and thankless,
    Into the burning bowels of this earth?

    Can those blacke beames such burning markes engrave
    In my free side? or am I borne a slave,
    Whose necke becomes such yoke of tyranny?
