Would that the lying rulers of the world <br />Were brought to block for tyrannies abhorred. <br />Would that the sword of Cromwell and the Lord, <br />The sword of Joshua and Gideon, <br />Hewed hip and thigh the hosts of Midian. <br />God send that ironside ere tomorrow’s sun; <br />Let Gabriel and Michael with him ride. <br />God send the Regicide.<br /><br />Vachel Lindsay<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/god-send-the-regicide/
