When the Piccadilly Daisy
Carried down the crew and captain in the sea;

And I know they didnt come ashore with me.”

Why am I forcd, like Heavn, against my mind,
To make Examples of another Kind?
Must I at length the Sword of Justice draw?
Oh curst Effects of necessary Law!
How ill my Fear they by my Mercy scan,
Beware the Fury of a Patient Man.”
