2199Scr. Here is the Indictment of the good Lord Hastings,

2200Which in a set Hand fairely is engross'd,

2201That it may be to day read o're in Paules.

2202And marke how well the sequell hangs together:

2203Eleuen houres I haue spent to write it ouer,

2204For yester-night by Catesby was it sent me,

2205The Precedent was full as long a doing,

2206And yet within these fiue houres Hastings liu'd,

2207Vntainted, vnexamin'd, free, at libertie.

2208Here's a good World the while.

2209Who is so grosse, that cannot see this palpable deuice?

2210Yet who so bold, but sayes he sees it not?

2211Bad is the World, and all will come to nought,

2212When such ill dealing must be seene in thought. Exit.
