“The welcome house of him my dearest guest.
Where ever, ever stay, and go not thence,
Till natures sad decree shall call thee hence;
Flesh of thy flesh, bone of thy bone,
I here, thou there, yet both but one.”

And now they pick the Bishop’s bones;
They gnawed the flesh from every limb,
For they were sent to do judgement on him!”
