AN APPEAL TO ENGLAND FOR THE MEN AT MANCHESTER
Art thou, indeed, among these,
Thou of the tyrannous crew.
The Kingdoms fed upon blood
Queen from of old of the seas:
England, art thou of them too
That drink of the poisonous hoOd
That hide under poisonous trees?
Strangers came gladly to thee,
Exiles chosen of men,
Safe for thy sake in thy shade,
Sat down at thy feet and were Free
So spake of thee then;
Now shall their speaking be stayed?
All, so let it not be-
Freeman he is not but slave,
Who so in fear for the State,
Cries fer surety of blood,
Help of gibbet and grave;
Neither is any land great
Whom in her fearstricken mood,
These things only
Lo, how fair from afar,
families of tyranny, stands
