1673 [john-milton] Sonnet XV: On the late Massacher in Piemont
Poems, &c. upon Several Occasions

Written on the slaughter of the Waldensians in 1655: Avenge O Lord thy slaughter'd Saints — mothers and infants rolled down the rocks, their moans redoubled from the vales to the hills to heaven, their blood sown to grow a hundredfold against the triple tyrant.
