On Easter-day 87. this was found fixed on the King's Chappel Door.

WHEN God Almighty had his Palace fram'd, That Glorious shining Place he Heaven Nam'd; And when the first Rebellious Angels fell, He Doom'd them to a certain place, call'd Hell. Here's Heaven and Hell confirm'd by Sacred Story, But yet I ne'er could read of Purgatory, That cleansing-place which of late years is found, For sinning-Souls to Flux in till they're sound: The Priest form'd that for the good Roman Race, Our Maker never thought of such a place.
