There seems to be an inconsistency in this page. At the top it states that the poem was written in 1681/2 but concerns Monmouth's rebellion. The latter didn't take place till 1685 (as correctly stated lower down the page), and against James II, in fact. Doesn't the poem relate solely to the exclusion crisis and Monmouth's role in it, rather than the later rebellion?
