OCTOGESIMUS OCTAVUS, mirabilis Annus
Clade Papistarum faustus vbique pijs
Perditione prius nunc proditione petebant
Perdita perditro est prodita proditio
Fausta et festa dies lux aurea QVINTA NOVEMBRIS

Against our peacefull Land came on to fight
The windes and waves, and fire in on conspire
To helpe the ENGLISH frustrate SPAYNES desire
To second that the POPE in Counsell sitts
For some rare stratagem they strayne their witts
NOVEMBERS 5th by powder they decree

Did soone prevent what they did think most sure
Thy mercyes LORD for evermore endure.
