Ye men of wit and wealth, why all this sneering

'Gainst poor Excisemen? Give the cause a hearing:

What are your Landlord's rent-rolls? Taxing ledgers!

What Premiers? What ev'n Monarchs? Mighty Gaugers!

Nay, what are Priests? (those seeming godly wisemen,)

What are they, pray, but Spiritual Excisemen!
