Book II, 51: On Mordecay and Haman

Two Steeds appointed were by Hamans hand;
The one at Grasse; The other Steed did stand
In Persia's Mues: The former was providing
For Mordecay: the last for Hamans riding:
But since, in order, last things prove the worst,
Hamans ambition drove him to the First:
But see, proud Hamans prouder Steed did cast
His glorious rider, whilest the Iew sits fast:
What matter Haman? Fortu, though no Friend
Of thine, first brought thee to thy Iourneyes end.
