9. As for the head and chief of thoseabout that compass me,Ev'n by the mischief of their lipslet thou them cover'd be.

10. Let burning coals upon them fall,them throw in fiery flame,And in deep pits, that they no moremay rise out of the same.

11. Let not an evil speaker beon earth established:Mischief shall hunt the vi'lent man,till he be ruined.
