the Moussiah, verse 7. Nothing
'Omnia mutantur, nihil interit' 1638, Edingburgh, Scotland
During the great national protest against royal and episcopal interference in the affairs of the Reformed Kirk, sparked off by the St.Giles riot in 1637, the Moussiah appeared to be of great inspiration. Cards like these were printed and secretly distributed amongst the protesters.
(title derived from ovidius, metamorphoses, xv, 165.)
