The

OPPORTUNITY

TIME
,
the
Twelve
Months
,
with
Opportunity
,
In
this
fair
Fountain
are
all
come
to
be
Actors
and
Speaker
in
your
Jubilee
:
For
Love
and
Honour
,
now
in
Triumph
ride
,
A
Day
,
your
own
Deserts
have
dignifi'd
:
(
I
speak
the
sence
of
all
the
City
,
which
Are
Old
and
Young
,
Wise
,
Generous
,
and
Rich
)
A
Season
that
is
Influenc'd
by
me
Without
whom
nothing
is
done
seasonably
.
My
Lord
!
My
Name
is
OPPORTUNITY
.
The
Twelve
Months
,
which
these
Persons
represent
,
Contain
the
Limits
of
your
Government
:
Who
,
on
their
Garland
Foreheads
,
undertake
To
wear
the
Twelve
Signs
of
the
Zodiac
.
The
Shields
(
on
which
their
Honour
much
relies
)
Contain
the
Arms
of
the
Twelve
Companies
.
Plenty
hath
sent
her
Fountain
too
,
by
me
,
That
you
may
take
your
Oppurtunity
:
Without
which
,
Princes
,
Politicians
,
States
,
Soldiers
and
Sea-men
,
Merchants
,
Magistrates
,
Lovers
and
Labourers
,
in
each
degree
,
Shall
simply
Center
in
Uncertainty
;
And
lose
the
prosperous
event
of
Fate
,
By
setting
forth
too
Early
or
too
Late
.
I'
th'
restless
Wheel
of
Time
,
there
is
a
Nick
,
Which
who
so
hits
,
is
Fortune's
Politic
;
But
you
,
my
Lord
,
know
well
,
(
by
reading
Men
)
Both
what
,
and
where
,
and
how
,
and
why
,
and
when
To
apt
your
Power
,
though
in
this
very
point
Of
Time
,
I
doubt
,
all
things
are
out
of
joynt
.
But
when
Extremes
on
either
hand
do
sway
,
'T
is
safest
sure
to
chuse
the
Middle-way
.
Extremes
are
dangerous
,
and
apt
to
hurt
us
,
We
read
,
in
medio
consistit
Virtus
.
Virtue
and
Providence
hath
made
you
rise
,
To
serve
the
State
in
Two
Capacities
,
Which
grow
as
near
as
Brother
is
to
Brother
,
Head
of
the
One
,
and
Member
of
the
Other
.
If
therefore
you
'l
gain
good
Esteem
on
Earth
,
And
dignifie
your
Name
,
your
Place
,
and
Birth
,
If
you
will
raise
a
future
Fame
,
and
be
A
Precedent
to
all
Posterity
,
Let
Equity
with
even
hand
,
my
Lord
,
Advance
your
Ballance
,
and
direct
your
Sword.
Nothing
can
make
a
Nation
so
well
live
As
Justice
,
when
it
is
distributive
,
And
equally
dispenc'd
.
Consider
,
that
This
Demi-Godlike
Power
of
Magistrate
,
Is
given
to
try
what
Spirit
you
will
be
,
Then
do
not
lose
your
Opportunity
.
Advance
true
Virtue
,
punish
every
Crime
,
Y'
have
but
a
Year
to
Rule
,
This
is
the
time
.
At
the
last
period
of
this
Oration
,
we
had
just
cause
to
presume
(
by
many
significant
Expressions
,
in
motion
,
looks
,
and
gesture
)
that
his
Lordship
was
well
pleased
;
who
separating
from
his
Station
,
advanceth
,
with
his
worthy
Senators
,
the
Aldermen
,
through
an
unruly
throng
of
admiring
Spectators
,
'till
coming
to
Milk-street
end
,
he
is
intercepted
,
and
civilly
importuned
to
apply
his
Observation
to
a
Second
Scene
,
which
is
rendred
more
manifest
by

The
ROYAL
SHEPHERD'S
Speech
.
I
Represent
that
Shepherd
whose
abode
Was
Palestine
,
One
who
Divinely
trod
,
And
said
,
My
Shepherd
is
the
Living
God
:
One
that
could
use
the
Sheephook
,
Harp
and
Sling
,
A
Shepherd
,
Souldier
,
Psalmist
,
and
a
King.
That
much
condemn'd
the
vile
Wits
of
his
Age
And
ours
,
when
wisely
,
in
a
Sacred
Rage
He
did
in
this
line
Atheism
explode
,
The
Fool
hath
said
in
's
heart
,
There
is
no
God.
A
Royal
Shepherd
,
One
that
gave
Content
To
his
Creator
with
good
Government
.
Four
Shepherds
and
their
Shepherdesses
do
Attend
on
Me
,
and
com
to
wait
on
You
,
Divinely
Qualified
,
Celestial
Swains
,
'Bove

[
Points

▪
]
Doth
shew
the
Drapers
,
Strength
,
Wealth
,
Innocence
.
And
as
to
Trade
,
the
Sheep
may
serve
ye
both
,
In
that
it
doth
produce
Parchment
and
Cloth.
This
little
Scene
,
and
I
,
do
represent
A
Model
of
Your
greater
Government
.
For
you
present
a
Shepherd
,
This
great
Town
Infolds
your
Flock
,
(
a
Plain
of
great
renown
)
You
do
present
a
Soudier
,
when
,
by
Law
,
You
sit
and
Act
in
the
Militia
.
In
your
distinct
Capacities
,
Men
know
You
are
tam
Marti
quàm
Mercurio
.
You

present
a
Judge
,

Guerdon

Succour

For
you
present
His
Sacred
MAJESTY
.
I
hope

present
them
all

well

You

be
a
Pattern
,
no
Time
shall
excell
.
So

please
King
,
Citizens
,
and
Peasants
,
And
be
well
known
to
all
Men
By
these
Presents
.
His

stately

ingenious

artful
hands
of
able
Painters
,
Gilders
,
and
Carvers
,
in
accurate
painting
,
as
well
statuary
as
perspective
,
by
which
the
admiring
beholders
are
honestly
,
though
wittily
,
deceived
into
a
great
deal
of
fantastic
Felicity
,
which
is
drawn
by
two
golden
pellited
Lyons
,
that
are
Supporters
to
the
Arms
of
the
Worshipful
Company
of
Drapers

celebrious
Chariot

riseth
up

ceremonially
addresseth
to

:
The
SPEECH
of
LOYALTY
.
THat
I
appear
thus
Arm'd
with
Shield
and
Sword
Is
proper
,
my
Name
's
LOYALTY
,
my
Lord.
True
Loyalty
,
without
Schism
or
Rent
,
For
th'
King
,
my
Country
,
and
The
Government
,
Against
all
those
that
hatch'd
the
late
damn'd
Plot
As
black
as
Hell
,
and
would
have
been
as
hot
,
If
Providence
and
Loyalty
had
not
Discover'd
it
;
who
will
as
long
as
able
Persist
with
Spirits
indefatigable
.
Except
true
Concord
be
amongst
us
bred
,
We
shall
be
ruin'd
,
as
your
Lordship
said
.
I
do
,
my
Lord
,
the
more
insist
upon
't
,
'Cause
y'
have
declar'd
for
a
True
Protestant
;
For
so
am
I
,
a
Vessel
of
such
Rate
As
ventur'd
against
Spain
in
Eighty
Eight
:
According
to
that
Church
,
i'
th
Life
and
Death
Of
peaceful
,
blessed
,
Queen
Elizabeth
.
—
[
A
good
Pause
.
]
Y'
have
gain'd
the
Love
of
LONDON
,
o're
which
,
Fate
,
Merit
,
and
Choice
,
have
made
you
Magistrate
,
The
great
and
good
Lord
Mayor
,
in
such
a
Season
As
will
require
your
most
refined
Reason
,
Authority
,
and
Iudgment
,
(
all
the
Town
Is
big
with
Expectation
)
and
to
Crown
With
happy
Omen
,
your
deserved
Honours
,
Your
Company
have
display'd
all
their
Banners
.
Open'd
their
Treasuries
,
willing
to
pay
Their
Tributary
Triumphs
on
your
Day
:
They
've
sent
their
Lyons
too
,
that
they
and
I
May
defend
you
from
all
Conspiracy
.
This
Rich
and
Royal
Piece
of
Art
you
see
[
Points
to
the
Chariot
.
]
Is
call'd
The
Chariot
of
Loyalty
,
Furnish'd
with
all
those
useful
Graces
,
that
Exalt
the
Seat
of
a
just
Magistrate
,
Which
I
'le
not
nominate
,
lest
with
pretence
Of
pleasing
,
I
oppress
your
Patience
;
Although
not
many
,
their
intrinsic
Virtue
Shall
fortifie
you
so
,
no
ill
can
hurt
you
,
Your
Prudence
will
direct
you
how
to
chuse
'em
,
And
when
,
and
where
,
and
in
what
case
to
use
'em
,
Vice
to
suppress
,
and
virtuous
Souls
to
nourish
,
So
,
the
whole
City
,
and
your
Fame
shall
flourish
.
The
Speech
being
ended
,
his
Lordship
giving
sufficient
demonstration
of
being
well
contented
,
proceedeth
through
a
tumultuous
Torrent
of
crouding
People
,
which
to
describe
is
so
numerous
and
various
,
that
it
would
exceed
the
full
length
of
a
Show
in
the
Description
.
But
in
brief
they
were
Shows
to
one
another
,
the
disorder'd
People
below
in
the
Street
was
an
excellent
Scene
of
confusion
to
the
Spectators
above
in
the
Belconies
,
who
like
waves
of
the
Sea
,
did
in
continual
agitation
,
roul
over
one
anothers
necks
like
Billows
in
the
Ocean
,
and
the
Gallantry
above
were
as
pleasurable
a
sight
to
the
Spectators
below
,
where
hundreds
of
various
defensive
postures
were
screw'd
,
for
prevention
of
the
fiery
Serpents
and
Crackers
that
instantly
assaulted
the
Perukes
of
the
Gallants
,
and
the
Merkins
of
the
Madams
.
In
that
Scene
below
,
I
saw
a
fellow
carried
in
a
throng
of
Squeezers
,
upon
Men's
backs
like
a
Pageant
for
the
space
of
thirty
Yards
;
in
all
which
time
,
being
somewhat
over-sensible
of
his
Elevation
,
strutted
,
cock'd
his
Beaver
,
and
rid
in
Triumph
,
'till
at
last
a
new
provocation
of
diversion
separating
the
shoulders
of
his
Supporters
,
drop'd
him
in
a
dismal
dirty
kennel
,
whil'st
a
race
of
fresh
Gamesters
ran
over
him
.
Like
a
popular
Favourite
,
who
when
the
Faction
dissipates
,
is
left
to
himself
,
and
laid
liable
to
all
misfortunes
.
But
(
in
this
time
)
my
Lord
is
come
to
St.
Laurence-Lane
end
,
where
he
is
jovially
saluted
with
a
Scene
of
Drolls
,
being
all
pertinent
persons
in
merry
conformity
to
the
Drapers
Company
.
The
Fourth
Pagent
.
THis
Scene
is
a
Landscape
of
Salisbury
Plain
,
where
Rustic
Shepherds
and
Rural
Shepherdesses
are
feeding
and
folding
their
Flocks
,
and
for
the
future
Exaltation
of
the
Drapers
delight
,
here
are
several
Trades
met
together
all
pertinent
for
making
of
Cloth
;
as
Carders
,
Spinners
,
Dyers
,
Wool-combers
,
Sheerers
,
Dressers
,
Fullers
,
Weavers
which
are
set
w●●hout
Order
,
because
the
Excellencie
of
this
Scene
doth
consist
in
confusion
,
although
their
Number
and
weight
are
too
cumbersom
and
ponderous
for
all
of
them
to
work
,
according
to
their
distinct
Arts
and
Mysteries
,
yet
they
are
here
met
in
their
Persons
to
rejoyce
and
express
their
Frolicks
,
in
Dancing
,
Tumbling
,
Jumping
,
Pipeing
and
Singing
;
and
all
such
jovial
Actions
and
Movements
of
Agility
,
as
may
express
their
Joy
and
Exultation
in
their
Complement
to
the
New
Lord
Mayor
,
and
their
Service
to
the
Drapers
Company
.
When
they
had
done
over
their
Tricks
of
Activity
;
as
much
silence
(
as
could
be
in
that
place
at
that
time
)
was
Commanded
,
whilst
a
Jolly
Shepherd
and
his
Bonny
Shepherdess
advance
their
Voices
in
in
this
following
Ditty
,
in
praise
of
a
Shepherds
Life
,
sung
by
Opilio
and
Pastora
.
A
SONG
.
Opi
.
OF
all
the
blest
Lives
in
the
World
that
are
fam'd
,
The
Shepherd's
condition
ought
first
to
be
nam'd
,
Which
may
be
defended
from
every
Degree
,
Past.
For
Piety
,
Honour
,
and
Antiquity
.
Iust
Abel
't
is
said
,
A
Shepherd
by
Trade
,
Did
dye
the
first
Martyr
that
ever
was
made
.
Opi
.
And
by
his
own
Brother
received
his
Doom
,
Although
their
Formation
were
both
in
a
Womb.
Past.
This
Example
may
teach
us
,
if
well
understood
,
That
there
's
no
Infallible
friendship
in
Blood.
Opi
.
When
David
did
follow
the
Ewes
great
with
young
,
He
liv'd
like
a
Shepherd
,
he
pip'd
and
he
sung
;
Past.
But
when
he
was
cramp'd
with
the
cares
of
a
Crown
,
His
own
complaints
tell
us
,
his
comforts
fell
down
.
Opi
.
His
days
of
delight
Were
trouble
and
fright
,
His
hands
were
taught
War
,
and
his
fingers
to
fight
:
Past.
But
though
he
was
blest
with
the
Death
of
Goliah
,
His
crosses
increas'd
with
the
fall
of
Uriah
;
He
had
a
fair
Fortune
,
and
stoutly
he
kept
her
,
Turn'd
Hook
,
Scrip
,
and
Bottle
,
to
Ball
,
Crown
,
and
Scepter
.
Opi
.
Thus
far
Divine
History
dignifies
Shepherds
,
Preserving
their
Flocks
from
Wolves
,
Lyons
,
and
Leopards
:
Apollo
(
ador'd
as
a
God
yet
)
did
keep
On
Thessalian
Mountains
King
Admetus's
Sheep
;
Past.
And
Pan
must
not
be
Forgotten
by
me
,
Whom
Shepherds
did
Worship
as
their
Deity
.
Opi
.
In
Arcadian
plains
he
Dominion
did
bear
,
When
Argalus
and
his
Parthenia
were
there
,
Past.
These
Presidents
ev'ery
Objection
convinces
;
Shepherds
have
been
Martyrs
,
Gods
,
Prophets
,
and
Princes
,
Opi
.
One
other
(
to
amplifie
all
)
I
shall
name
,
Of
Courage
and
Conduct
,
good
Fortune
and
Fame
,
Past.
A
Shepherd
by
Trade
,
and
a
Scythian
by
Birth
,
As
you
will
confess
when
you
hear
of
his
worth
,
Tamberlain
did
make
The
Turk's
Empire
to
shake
,
When
he
in
a
Battel
did
Bajazet
take
.
Opi
.
Though
five
hundred
Thousand
men
there
did
engage
,
He
took
him
,
and
put
him
into
an
Iron
Cage
;
Past.
In
one
little
Cabin
his
Empire
and
Throne
is
,
Who
with
his
one
Tongue
declar'd
Lex
talionis
.
Opi
.
But
we
simple
Shepherds
on
Salsbury
plain
,
Live
in
more
content
than
some
Princes
that
Raign
▪
Past.
In
Vallies
and
Mountains
we
pipe
and
we
sing
,
Love
God
and
our
Neighbours
,
the
Church
and
the
King
:
Opi
.
We
are
not
such
Sots
To
harbour
black
Plots
,
To
call
in
the
French-men
or
draw
in
the
Scots
.
And
in
civil
War
ev'ry
Honest-man
loses
:
They
that
love
it
I
wish
they
may
hav
't
in
their
Houses
:
Chor.
No
Kingdom
,
nor
Dukedom
,
nor
Popedom
can
be
With
all
their
Dominions
,
so
happy
as
we
.
Opi
.
We
are
not
for
Pistols
,
Guns
,
Backsword
,
nor
Rapiers
,
But
pray
for
good
Tradeing
amongst
LONDON
Drapers
,
Of
whose
Corporation
and
Society
Sir
Henry
Fitz-Alwin
first
Lord
Mayor
was
Free.
Who
,
as
it
appears
By
our
Overseers
,
Did
Rule
as
Lord
May'r
above
Twenty
four
yeers
.
And
it
is
presum'd
(
he
so
justly
did
do
)
If
he
had
not
dy'd
then
,
might
have
sat
there
till
now
.
Then
let
's
sing
and
Dance
up
,
Curvet
,
and
cut
Capers
,
Wee
'l
pray
for
the
King
,
the
Lord
Mayor
and
the
Drapers
.
The
Song
being
ended
the
Foot-Marshal
,
having
placed
the
Assistants
,
Livery
and
the
Companies
on
both
sides
of
King-street
,
and
their
Pensioners
with
their
Targets
hung
on-the
Tops
of
the
Javelins
:
In
the
Reer
of
them
the
Ensign-bearers
;
Dums
and
Fifes
in
the
Front
,
and
hasten
the
Foins
and
Budg-Batchelors
,
together
with
the
Gentlemen-Ushers
to
Guild-Hall
,
where
his
Lordship
is
again
saluted
by
the
Artillery-men
with
Three
Vollies
more
,
which
Concludes
their
Duty
;
His
Land
Attendants
pass
through
the
Gallery
or
Lane
,
so
made
into
Guild-Hall
,
after
which
the
Company
repairs
to
Dinner
in
the
Hall
,
and
the
several
Silk-works
,
and
Triumphs
are
likewise
conveyed
into
Blackwell-Hall
,
and
the
Officers
aforesaid
,
and
the
Children
that
sit
in
the
Pageants
there
refresh
themselves
until
his
Lordship
hath
Dined
at
Guild-Hall
.
But
I
must
attend
my
Lord
in
the
Hall
at
Dinner
,
and
give
an
account
of
the
delightful
Diligence
,
with
the
Jocal
Accomplishments
and
performances
of
the
Musical
Movements
.
His
Lordship
and
the
Guests
being
all
seated
,
the
City
Music
begin
to
touch
their
Instruments
,
with
very
Artful
Fingers
,
and
after
a
Consort
Lesson
or
two
being
played
,
and
their
Ears
as
well
feasted
as
their
Pallats
,
an
Accute
Person
with
good
Voice
,
brisk
humour
and
Audible
utterance
(
the
better
to
provoke
Digestion
,
)
sings
this
pertinent
Frolic
,
called
,
The
CORONATION
of
CANARY
.
DRink
your
Wine
away
,
'T
is
my
Lord
Mayor's
day
;
Let
our
Cups
and
Caesh
be
free
:
Beer
and
Ale
are
both
But
the
Sons
of
froth
,
Let
us
then
in
Wine
agree
To
tast
a
Quart
Of
every
Sort
,
The
thinner
and
the
thicker
;
That
spight
of
Chance
We
may
advance
The
Nobler
and
the
Quicker
,
Who
shall
by
Vote
Of
ev'ry
Throat
Be
Crown'd
the
King
of
Liquor
.
II.
Muscadel
Avant
,
Bloody
Alligant
,
Shall
have
no
free
vote
of
mine
;
Claret
is
a
Prince
,
And
he
did
long
since
In
the
Royal
Order
shine
.
His
Face
is
spread
With
sprightly
red
,
And
so
he
loves
to
see
Men
;
If
he
bears
sway
,
His
Subjects
they
Shall
be
as
good
as
Free-men
.
But
here
's
the
blot
Almost
forgot
,
He
's
too
much
burnt
by
Women
.
III.
By
the
River
Rhine
Is
a
valiant
Vine
,
That
can
all
our
Veins
replenish
;
Let
us
then
consent
To
the
Government
,
And
the
Royal
Rule
of
Rhenish
.
The
German
Wine
Will
warm
the
Chine
,
And
frisk
in
every
Vein
;
'T
will
make
the
Bride
Forbear
to
chide
,
And
call
him
to
't
again
.
But
that
's
not
all
,
He
's
much
too
small
To
be
our
Soveraign
.
IV.
We
shall
never
think
Of
a
nobler
Drink
;
Then
with
votes
advanced
high
,
Let
us
all
proclaim
Good
Canary's
Name
,
Heaven
bless
His
MAJESTY
.
He
is
a
King
In
every
thing
,
Whose
Nature
doth
renounce
ill
;
He
'l
make
us
skip
,
And
nimbly
trip
,
To
the
Ceiling
from
the
Ground-cill
,
Especially
When
Poets
be
Lords
of
the
Privy-Council
.
V.
But
a
Vintner
he
Will
his
Taster
be
,
There
is
no
Man
that
can
him
let
;
And
a
Drawer
that
Hath
a
good
Pallat
,
Shall
be
made
Squire
of
the
Gimlet
.
The
Bar-boys
shall
Be
Pages
all
,
A
Tavern
well
prepar'd
;
In
jovial
sort
Shall
be
his
Court
,
Where
nothing
may
be
spar'd
,
Wine-Porters
shall
With
shoulders
tall
,
Be
Yeomen
of
the
Guard.
VI.
If
a
Cooper
we
With
a
Red-Nose
see
,
But
in
any
part
o'
th'
Town
;
That
same
Cooper
shall
With
his
Adds
Royal
Be
the
keeper
of
the
Crown
.
Young
Wits
that
wash
Away
their
Cash
In
Wine
and
Recreation
,
That
hate
dull
Beer
Are
welcom
here
To
give
their
Approbation
:
So
shall
all
you
That
will
allow
Canary's
Coronation
.
Dinner
being
ended
,
and
Night
approaching
,
his
Lordship
being
attended
by
a
private
Retinue
of
his
own
Company
,
takes
Coach
,
and
is
conducted
to
his
Mansion-House
,
without
the
troublesom
Night-Ceremony
which
hath
been
formerly
,
when
St.
Paul's
was
standing
.
When
his
Lordship
is
housed
,
those
that
attend
on
him
depart
with
order
and
conveniency
;
and
the
Triumphs
and
Silk-works
are
by
the
care
of
the
Master-Artificers
,
lodged
for
that
Night
in
Blackwell-Hall
'till
the
next
day
following
,
and
then
are
to
be
convey'd
to
Drapers-Hall
.
To
close
up
all
,
the
Artists
and
Artificers
(
each
of
them
deserving
Commendations
)
bid
you
Good
Night
.
FINIS
