Kirk and State Excisemen

  kirk and state excisemen
  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 wise-men,)
  what are they, pray, but spiritual excisemen!
