The Percies were the men, men of great might,

18

Strong in alliance, and in courage strong

19

That thus conspire, under pretense to right

20

The crooked courses they had suffered long:

21

Whether their conscience urg'd them or despite,

22

Or that they saw the part they took was wrong,

23

Or that ambition hereto did them call,

24

Or others envied grace, or rather all.
