“See high, haught Europe that adores the Rood, for pow’er and polity o’er all renown’d:

See Africk grudging ev’ery worldly good, yon rough, incult and monster-haunted ground; whose Stormy Cape till now your search withstood, by Nature ’stablished as her Austral bound:

Behold this quarter where the Blackmoors dwell sans-loys, sans-foys, whose numbers none can tell.
