concern for those with great heresy in their teachings both in church and state

Beware of thy dreaming
The scars across your chest
With shrieks witches call them
To come up from their nest

They come at night
They whisper in your ear
Some tempt with pleasure
Some sow seeds of fear

Some garner disbelief
They scoff at prophecy
but their allegiance lies
Deep beneath our feet

Some fog the brain
Like drugs their kin
But these slippery lizards
Multiply unfaithful of men

Like an order of fallen angels
Permeating church and state
But woe unto these creatures
For whom is a special fate

Repent Christians in doubt
Repent ye men of state
Repent ye authors and speaker
Lest you join them in the lake

Be divided not from brothers
Deny not Jacob’s place
Beware conspiracies hatred
Open not the gate

Lord guard us from their talons
Same men from their voice
Bind this spreading darkness
Your Lordship is our choice
