Listen in the reader

That those whom they did wrong and slay,   must now their Judgment see! Such whom they slighted and once despited,   must now their Judges be! Thus ’tis decreed, such is their meed,   and guerdon glorious; With Christ they sit, judging it fit   to plague the Impious.

The wicked brought to the Bar.
