ascii text with mnemonic sdata character entities); displayable xml (tcp schema; characters represented either as utf-8 unicode or text strings within braces); or lossless xml (tei p5, characters represented either as utf-8 unicode or tei g elements). keying and markup guidelines are available at the text creation partnership web site . eng church of england -humor -early works to 1800. political ballads and songs -early works to 1800. political satire, english -early works to 1800. great britain -church history -17th century -early works to 1800. 2007-08 tcp assigned for keying and markup 2007-08 aptara keyed and coded from proquest page images 2007-09 mona logarbo sampled and proofread 2007-09 mona logarbo text and markup reviewed and edited 2008-02 pfs batch review (qc) and xml conversion o yes , o yes , i do cry , the bishops bridles will you buy . since bishops first began to ride in state , so neare the crown , they have been aye puft up with pride , and rode with great renown : but god hath pull'd these prelats down , in spight of spain and pope ;

ascii text with mnemonic sdata character entities); displayable xml (tcp schema; characters represented either as utf-8 unicode or text strings within braces); or lossless xml (tei p5, characters represented either as utf-8 unicode or tei g elements). keying and markup guidelines are available at the text creation partnership web site . eng political ballads and songs -england -early works to 1800. popish plot, 1678 -poetry -early works to 1800. rye house plot, 1683 -poetry -early works to 1800. great britain -history -stuarts, 1603-1714 -poetry -early works to 1800. 2006-01 tcp assigned for keying and markup 2006-07 spi global keyed and coded from proquest page images 2006-09 john latta sampled and proofread 2006-09 john latta text and markup reviewed and edited 2007-02 pfs batch review (qc) and xml conversion a choice collection of 120 loyal songs , all of them written since the two late plots , ( viz. ) the horrid salamanca plot in 1678. and the fanatical conspiracy in 1683. intermixt with some new love songs with a table to find every song to which is added , an anagram , and an accrostick on the salamanca doctor . london , printed by n. t. at the entrance into the old spring garden near charing cross . 1684. to the reader . amongst the several means that have been of late years to reduce the deluded multitude to their just allegiance , this of ballads and loyal songs has not been of the least influence . while the fergusons , and heads of the factions were blowing up sedition in every corner of the countrey , these flying choristers were asserting the rights of monarchy , and proclaiming loyalty in every street . the mis-inform'd rabble began to listen ; they began to hear to truth in a song , in time found their errors , and were charm'd into obedience . those that despise the reverend prelate in the pulpit , and the grave judge on the bench ; that will neither submit to the laws of god or man , will yet lend an itching ear to a new song , nay , and often become a convert by it , when all other means prove ineffectual . divine herbert has it excellently exprest , where he says , a verse may find him who a sermon flies , and turn delight into a sacrifice . it cannot be imagin'd how many scatter'd flocks this melodious tingling hath reduced to their princely hives , who otherwise had never been brought under the discipline of obedience or government . and , without ostentation , i may say , i printed my news-papers ( that always ▪ vindicated the king and government ) to undeceive the people , who were daily impos'd upon by curtis , smith , harris , care , vile , baldwin , janeway , &c. when no body else would or durst . for this the malice of the factious party swell'd so high against me , that they , with the assistance of a certain instrument , ( who swore through two brick-walls before oates appear'd ) caused me to be imprison'd six times , so that for near five years i was never free from trouble , having seldom less than 3 , or 4 indictments at a sessions against me ;

but tony did swagger and bluster , yet never drew sword on his side . for tony is like an old stallion , he has still the pox of rebellion , and never was sound ; like the camelion , still changing his shape and his ground . 3. old rowley's return'd ( heavens bless him ) from exile and danger set free ; old tony made hast to address him , and swore none more loyal than he the king , who knew him a traytor , and saw him squint like a satyr ; yet through his grace pardon'd the matter , and gave him since the purse and the mace. 4. and now little chancellour tony , with honour had feather'd his wing , and carefully pick'd up the money , but never a groat for the king : but tony's luck was confounded ; the duke who smoak'd him a round-head ; from head to heel tony was sounded , great york soon put a spoke in his wheel . 5. but now little tony in passion , like boy that had nettl'd his breech , maliciously took an occasion , to make a most delicate speech ; he told the king like a croney ; if e're he hop'd to have money , he must be rul'd : oh fine tony ! was ever potent monarch so school'd ? 6. the king issues out a proclamation , by learned and loyal advice ; but tony possesses the nation the councel will never be wise : for tony is madder and madder , and monmouth's blown like a bladder , and l — e too , who grows gladder , that they great york are like to subdue . 7. but destiny shortly will cross it , for tony's grown gouty and sick , in spight of his spiggot and fawcet the states-man must go to old nick : for tony rails at the papists , yet he himself is an atheist ; though so precise , foolish and apish , like holy quack or priest in disguise . 8. but now let this rump of the law see , a maxim as learned in part ; who e're with his prince is too sawcy , 't is fear'd he 's a traytor in 's heart , then tony cease to be witty , by buzzing treason i' th' city ; and love the king , so ends my ditty , or else let him die like a dog in a string . the whigs exaltation , a pleasant new song , to an old tune of forty one. 1. now , now the tories all shall stoop . religion and the laws , and whigs on commonwealth get up to ●a● the good old cause ; tantivy-boys shall all go down , and haughty monarchy , the ●eathern-cap shall brave the throne ; then hey boys up go we . 2. when once that antichristian crew are crush'd , and overthrown , we 'l teach the nobles how to bow , and keep their gentry down , good manners has a bad repute , and tends to pride we see ; we 'l therefore cry all breeding down and hey boys up go we . 3 the name of lord shall be abhorr'd , for ev'ry mans a brother ; what reason 's then in church or state one man should rule another ? thus having peel'd and plunder'd all , and level'd each degree , we 'l make their plump young daughters fall , and hey boys up go we . 4. what though the king and parliament cannot accord together , we have good cause to be content , this is our sun-shine weather ; for if good reason should take place , and they should both agree , d'zounds who wou'd be in a round-heads case ? for hey then up go we . 5. we 'l down with all the ' versities where learning is profes● : for they still practice , and maintain the language of the beast ; we 'l exercise in every grove , and preach beneath a tree ; we 'l make a pulpit of a tub , then hey boys up go we . 6. the whigs shall rule committee-chair , who will such laws invent , as shall exclude the lawful heir by act of parliament : we 'l cut his royal highness down , ev'n shorter by the knee , that he shall never reach the throne , then hey boys up go we . 7. we 'l smite the idol in guild-hall , and then ( as we were wont , ) we 'l cry it was a popish plot , and swear those rogues have don 't ; his royal highness to un-throne our interest will be , for if he e're enjoy his own , then hey boys up go we . 8. we 'l break the windows which the whore of babylon has painted ; and when their bishops are pull'd down , our elders shall be sainted : thus having quite enslav'd the throne , pretending to set free , at length the gallows claims its own , then hey boys up go we . an excellent new hymn , exalting the mobile to loyalty , &c. to the tune of forty one. 1. let us advance the good old cause ; fear not tantivitiers , whose threatnings are as senseless , as our jealousies and fears ; 't is we must perfect this great work , and all the tories slay , and make the king a glorious saint the clean contrary way . 2. it is for liberty we plot , and for the publick good , by making bishops go to pot , and shedding guiltless blood ; we 'l damn the orthodoxal beast , and their adherents slay ; when these are down , we shall be blest the clean contrary way . 3. when we the king have bankrupt lain , of power and crown bereft him , and all his loyal subjects slain , and none but rebels left him ; when we have quite undone the land , by ignoramus sway we 'l settle the succession , and the clean contrary way . 4. 't is to preserve his majesty , that we against him rise , the righteous cause can never die that 's manag'd by the wise , th' association's a just thing , and that does seem to say , who fights for us , fights for the king the clean contrary way . 5. religion still must be th' intent , the nations peace and good , the privledge of parliament so rarely understood ;

the whigs ( who loyalty forsook ) shall with one voice agree , to welcom home the mighty duke of york and albany . 2. behold with what a glorious train of noble lords and peers , great york is guarded o're the main , in spight of all our fears ▪ our groundless doubts and jealousies of popish slavery . for who can keep the crowd in peace , but york and albany . 3. the wandring dove that was sent forth to find some landing near , when englands ark was toss●d on floods of jealousies and fears ; returns with olive branch of joy , to set the nation free from whiggish rage , that wou'd destroy great york and albany . 4· and now he is return'd in peace , with all his pompous train , whom heav'n protected o're the seas , to bless this land again ? let us with thankful hearts comply , and joyful harmony ; for scotlands hope , and englands joy , is york and albany . 5. let bumpers flow , and bonfires blaze , and every steeple ring , to set forth royal jemmy's praise , the brother of our king : let trumpets sound , and cannons roar , and with one voice agree , since heav'n again has brought ashoar great york and albany . 6 , these solemn rights they freely gave to ev'y factious brother ; who thought the nation to enslave , and ruine one another ; to monmouth , and each factious lord , to oates and shaftsbury ; but thought it treason to afford to york and albany . 7. now be confounded , all you tribe of ignoramus sway ; who by malicious plots contriv'd to drive the heir away , ( as you did once before to france ) an exile o're the sea ; who ( to your grief ) did home advance great york and albany . 8. and may he , with the joys he wed , together flourish still ; and live to crush the serpents head , whose sting did pierce his heel , till rebels tremble at his name , and all the land agree , the just succession to procliam of york and albany . the riddle of the roundhead . to the tune , now at last the riddle is expounded . 1. now at last the riddle is expounded , which so long the nation has confounded , for the roundhead begins the game again , which so well they play'd in forty four , now with greater hope ; for the fine sham-plots will ne'r give over , till they piously have routed king and pope . 2. anthony that worm of reformation , who of commonwealth has laid foundation , which the nation so hotly does pursue ; let him be rewarded in the tower , for his merits due : by that busie plotting head laid lower , we may perhaps escape what might ensue . 3. perkin make fine legs to the shouting rabble , who to make him king he thinks are able ; but the bauble is only shew'd for use : the silly idiot serves but for a tool still , for knaves to work their feats , and will remain but a dull mistaken fool still , for all their damn'd cabals & wapping treats . 4. the most zealous parliament devoted , for the publick good devoutly voted , pray note it , that the duke must ne'er be king ; and like honest faithfull loyal subjects , his majesty implore , to sign their pious and religious projects , or else the threatn'd king must reign no more . 5. the renowned work of reformation , to be carry'd on throughout the nation , in a passion they vote the canons down : acts and statutes all must be confounded , law and justice too , to make way for the proud rebellious roundhead that they once more the nation may undo . 6. lords and bishops both are useless voted , and the factious crew who gravely plotted , are noted for lords and commons too , whigs and brumighams with shams and stories , are true protestants , and protestants are masquerates and tories , the modern reformation of the saints . 7. old queen bess that made the best indentures , good king jemmy too against dissenters , he ventures ▪ to turn them out of doors ;

in oxford all their stratagem● confounded , the roguish joyner too ; and may no better fate attend the roundhead , that wou'd the church and monarchy subdue . 6. oxford loyal youths who scorn to sham us , with a perjur'd bill of ignoramus , or name us for loyal , traytors known ; soon found a flaw i' th bottom of the joyner , by justice and the laws , of church and commonwealth an underminer , who fell a martyr in the good old cause . 10. now for shame ye zealots be confounded , boast no more allegiance , since a roundhead is grounded upon the holy sham : how dare ye talk of loyalty , a hater of justice , king and laws , since the whiggish protestant is found a traytor , and dies a martyr in the good old cause . ignoramus : an excellent song . to the tune of , lay by your pleading 1 since reformation with whig's in fashion , there 's neither equity nor justice in the nation , against their furies , there no such cure is , as lately hath been wrought by ignoramus-juries . compaction of faction that breeds all distraction , is at the zenith point , but will not bear an action . they sham us , and flam us , and ram us , and damn us , and then in spight of law , come off with ignoramus . 2 oh , how they plotted , brimi●hams voted and all the mobile the holy cause promoted ; they preach'd up treason , at ev'ry season , and taught the multitude rebellion was but reason , with breaches , impeaches , and most loyal speeches , with royal bloud again to glut the thirsty leeches . they sham us and flam us , &c. 3 't is such a jury wou'd pass no tory , were he as innocent as a saint in glory : but let a brother ravish his mother , assassinate his king , he wou'd find no other . they shamed , and blamed , at loyallists aimed ;

let tinkers and weavers , and joyners agree ▪ to find work for the cooper , they 'l have none of me , let politick shams , in the states-men abound , while we quaff off our bumpers , and set the glass round : the jolly true toper's the best subject still , who drinks off his liquor , and thinks no more ill . 2. then let us stand to 't , and like honest men fall , who love king and country ▪ duke , dutchess and all : not such as wou'd blow up the nation by stealth , and out of the flame raise a new commonwealth : not such , who against church and bishops do rage , to advance old jack presbyter , on the new stage . but to all honest tories who 'l fight for their king , and to crown the brave work , with the court wee 'l begin . 3. here 's a health to the king , and his lawful successors to honest tantivies , and loyal addressors ;

for with sike like seeming sanctity the geudest king they did to death and ruine bring . when on the civil-broils they first did enter in , ( as well ye ken ) with popery they did begin ▪ and with liberty and publick geud was muckle din , when the deel a bit they meant the thing . 3 ▪ that machine of monstrous policy , i se mean old shaftsbury for loyalty so ●am'd the voice of all the geudly rabble mobile , the fausest loon that ever envy destin'd damn'd heav'n sure never meant so fou a thing , but to inform the world where villany did dwell : and sike a traytor beath to commonwealth and king the muckle deel did surely never hatch in hell. 4. for , like roman cataline , to gain his pious ends , he pimps for au the loose rebellious fops in toon : and with treats and treason daily crams his city friends , from the link●man to the scarlet-goon . and with high debauchery they carry on the cause , and guedly reformation is the sham pretence ▪ and religiously defie divine and humane laws , with obedience to their rightful prince . 5. then , as speaker , to this grand cabal , old envy tony , seated at the head o●th ' board , his learn'd oration for rebellion makes to all , applauded and approv'd by ev'ry factious lord . cully jemmy then they vote for king , whom curse confound for being sike a senseless loon can they who did their lawful lord to th' scaffold bring be just to him , that has no title to a croon ? 6. but they find he 's a blockhead fitting for their use , a fool by nature , and a knave by custom grown . a gay fop-monarch , that the rabble may abuse and their bus'ness done , will soon unthrone . and jemmy swears and vows , 'gan he can get the croon , he by the laws of forty ene will guided be : and prophane lawn-sleeves and surplices again must doon , then hey for and presbytery . 7. b — m a states-man would be thought , and reason geud that he should bear that rev'rend name , since he was ene of them that first began the plot , how he the king might banter , and three kingdoms sham. au the male-contents his noble grace to this rehearsal did invite , to hear and see : but , whilst he wittily contriv'd it but a farce , the busier noddles turn'd it into tragedy . 8. and now each actor does begin to play his part , and too so well he cons his geer , and takes his cue , till they learn to play the rebel so by rote of heart , that the fictitious story seems most true. and now , without controll , they apprehend and hang and with the nation au is gospel that they swear : then , bonny jockey , prithee back to'l scotland gang , for a loyal lad's in danger here . the state empirick , a new song . to the tune of , which no body can deny . 1. from over the seas not long since there came , a doctor of most notorious fame , if you please you may guess at his vn-christian name . which no body can deny . 2. this doctor came hither to cure three nations . who were so silly as to be his patients ; and first he blooded 'em for the fashions . which no body can deny . 3. the med'cine he brought was called a plot , which was compounded of the devil knows what : when first he arriv'd it was piping-hot . which , &c. 4. but if we may guess at the damn'd composition ▪ 't was a mess of all sorts of english sedition , made up by a presbyterian physician . which , &c. 5. to make each dose go down the safer , what do's the still this learned gaffer , but cover it o'r with a papist●s wafer . which , &c. 6. as soon as 't was swallow'd , the patient began to stare and to talk like a lunatick man , of pistols and daggers , to kill and trapan . which , &c. 7. to some 't was emetick , to others cathartick , ( i mean , to all those who of it did partake , ) in short , it made every honest mans heart-ake . which , &c. 8. to say truth we were all in a filthy condition this voided a libel , that spew'd a petition , for which we may thank in part our physician . which , &c. 9. at last it made our bloud so ferment , that a rancorous sore from men's body's was sent : the vlcer , i mean , of a strange parliament . which , &c. 10. it 's venom upon each member was shed ; the body it almost had over-spread , nay , it had e●en like to have seiz'd on the head. which , &c. 11. but one wiser then all , did giv 't such a thump , that it burst and went out , just next to the rump . which made with joy ev'ry loyal heart jump . which ▪ &c. 12. this vlcer was full of pistol and sword , with blunderbuss and with your things made of board , your protestant flayls to fight for the lord. which , &c 13. o doctor ! i fear , you study'd art magick , to compass your ends , which still were so tragick : but now it is hop'd that we may lead you a jig . which , &c. 14. or else i am sure , without being uncivil , a man my believe you deal with the devil , for no body else could have wrought us such evil. which , &c. 15. your canting was charm , rebellion your witch , with these you gave the poor rabble the itch , when like emp'rick on stage you made 'em a speech . which , &c. 16. y' are jilted you see by faction your whore , your little tap-pug can help you no more : hell ow's both a spite , and will pay ye the score . which no body can deny . titus tell-troth : a song to the tune of , hail to the myrile shades . 1. hail to the knight of the post ; to titus the chief of the town titus who vainly did boast of the salamancha gown ; titus who saw the world o're , from the tower of valadolid , yet stood in the white-horse door , and swore to it , like the creed . 2. titus at watton in may , to titus at islington ; and titus the self same day both here and there again . titus who never swore truth , his politick plots to maintain , and never yet bawk'd an oath , when call'd to the test again . 3. then titus was meekest of all , when never a peny in 's purse , and oft did on pickering call , his charity to imburse . but when he swore damnable oaths , and lying esteemed no sin , then titus was one of those whom the devil had entred in . 4. then titus the frown of heav'n , and titus a plague upon earth ; titus who 'l ne'r be forgiven , curs'd from his fatal birth ; titus the curse and the doom of the rich and the poor man too ; oh titus , thou shred of a loom , what a plague dost thou mean to do ? 5. titus an orthodox beast , and titus a presbyter tall ; titus a popish priest , and titus the shame of all ; titus who ne'r had the skill the wise with his plots to deceive but titus whose tongue can kill ; whom nature has made a sla ▪ 6. titus the light of the town , where zealots and whigs do resort ; titus the shame of the gown , and titus the scorn of the court ; titus who spew'd out the truth , to swallow the covenant ; yet never blush'd at an oath , whom lying has made a saint . 7. yet titus believed cou'd be against any popish lord ; whilst still ag●inst shaftsbury the witness and truth ●s abhor'd ; so titus got credit and gold for lying , an thought it no sin ; but against dissenters bold the truth is not worth a pin . 8. thus titus swore on a pace , ' gainst those whom he never did see ; yet titus with brazen face wou'd our preserver be . but as titus the foremost in trust discover'd this mistery : may titus so be the first that leads to the triple-tree . the compleat swearing-master : to the tune of , now now the fight 's done . 1. once on a time , the dr. did swea● , by the help of his friend the prince of the air. he was busie in consult , one day in spain , and on the same day in england again , and the dr. did wear that noble don john , though little and fair , was a tall black man. 2. the dr. swore he brought commissions to town from father oliva , to men of renown : to raise mighty force , the king to destroy , for which many ruffians the pope did imploy ; and the dr. did swear that little don john , was black , and also a very tall man. 3. that forty thousand pilgrims there were , arm'd with black bills , that march'd in the air and ready to strike when the pope should command , and carry to rome poor little england . and the dr. did swear as few others can , that little don john is a tall black man. 4. and the dr. did swear he had letters full many but for all he swore , he ne'r produc'd any , it 's much he kept none to make out the matter but it may be he lost them , in crossing the water ; but that 's all one the dr. swore on , that little don john was a tall black man. 5. he swore two hundred thousand pounds sent to ireland , which was all to be spent : in squibs to burn houses , amunition and bills , and pay popish doctors for king killing pills : which he swore had been done if the plot had gon on , and then swore don john a very tall man. 6. and the dr. did swear he knew not some men , yet afterwards swore , he knew them again ; and the dr. did swear by the fair candle-light he could not discern a man from a mite : but believe him who will , for i hardly can , that little don john is a tall black man. 7. and he swore he always a protestant was , and ne'r car'd a fart for pope or for mass , and he swore he went to st. omers to find what the jesuits had against england design'd . and the dr. did swear , deny it who can , that little don john was a tall black man 8. and the dr. did swear a thousand things more that discovering the plot had made him so poor , and he swore himself 700 pounds worse , but a pox of all lies , take that with a curse : but i le not beleiv't , although others can , that little don john is a tall black man. 9. now if it should please the dr. to swear to keep his hand in , a man is a bear ; or the dr. will swear his soul to the devil , he wall do it for me , i love to be civil ; every man in his way , let the dr. swear on , but i beg his excuse in the size of don john. 10. the dr. may swear the crow to be white , or a pigmey to be of gygantick height , or double his numbers of pilgrims and bills , and swear them drawn up in lincolns-inn-fields . i hear 't and believ 't as much as i can , that little don john is a tall black man , 11. there 's no stopping the tide , let the dr. swear on . the black is the fair , or the fair the black man , or swear what he will i care not a t — , i 'de as soon as his , take another mans word : so dr. be damn'd and swear all you can , don john is not tall , nor yet a black man : a tory in a whig's coat : to the tune of , vp with aley , &c. 1. what ! still ye whigs uneasie ! will nothing coll your brain , unless great charles , to please-ye , will let ye drive his wain ? then up with prance and oats , and up with knaves a pair ;

' gainst arbitrary power of state , and popery vvhich the zealots hate , it vvou'd give them such a rap on the pate , they must yield to their fate , with a thump , &c. 9. it had a thousand virtues more , and had a salve for every sore , with a thump , &c. with this they thought to have maintain'd , the loyal tribe , and royalists brain'd : but the joyner vvas hang'd , and the flayl vvas arraign●d and the conquest regain'd , with a thump , &c. 10. may tony and all our enemies , meet vvith no better fate then his , with a thump , &c. may charles still live to rule the state , and york , ( vvhom all dissenters hate ) to be reveng'd upon their pate , by timely fate , with a thump , thump , thump a thump , thump , a thump , thump . ignoramus●justice , to the tune of , sir egledemore . 1. did you not hear of a peer that was try'd ? with a fa ▪ la , la , la , la. that looks like a cask with a tap in his side ; with a fa , la , la , la , la. this noble peer to the bar was call'd ; the witnessses sworn , but the fore-man out-baul'd ; with a fa , la , la , la , la. 2. then up sir samuel did start ; with a fa , la , &c. and found the bill not worth a f — ; with a fa , la , &c. with that the court kept such a stir , the fore-man should prove so s●yll a sir , with a fa , la , &c. 3. the witnesses for the king swore plain ; with a fa , la , &c. but had they been as many again ; with a fa , la , &c. the jury before such truths receiv'd , nor them , nor st. peter they wou'd have believ'd ; with a fa , la , &c. 4. the witnesses brought him a traytor in ; with a fa , la , &c. but the jury found it another thing ; with a fa , la , &c. for he who did still his king oppose , is made a true subject in spight of the laws ; with a fa , la , &c. 5. thus this great lord of high renown ; with a fa , la , &c. th' exalted idol of the town ; with a fa , la , &c. is clear'd by ignoramus-sway , for betraying the church and the king in a day , with a fa , la , &c. 6. the rabble to shew their loyalty ; with a fa , la , &c. did in full shouts with the jury agree ; with a fa , la , &c. they bonfires made with great applause , and all to maintain the good old cause ; with a fa , la , &c. 7. and now in spight of king and queen ; with a fa , la , &c. more jollity was in the streets to be seen ; with a fa , la , &c. then on the twenty ninth of may , though it was the restauration-day ; with a fa , la , &c. 8. another passage i chanc●d to hear ; with a fa , la , &c. that the doctor is fallen from the front to the rear ; with a fa , la , &c. he to the saints does now incline , abjures the king , with the rebels combines ; vvith a fa , la , &c ▪ 9. yet these pretend now for to inherit ; vvith a fa , la , &c.

he fights with such a grace no force can him withstand ; no god of war but must give place where jemmy leads the van 4. to jemmy every swain does pay due veneration ; and scotland does maintain his title to the nation : the pride of all the court he stands the patron of his cause , the joy and hope of all his friends the terrour of his foes . 5. maliciously they vote , to work old jemmy's ruin , and zealously promote a bill for his undoing : both lords and commons most agree to pull his highness down ; but ( ' spight of all their policy ) old jemmy's heir to th' crown . 6. the schismatick and saint , the baptist and the athiest , swear by the covenant , old jemmy is a papist ; whilst all the holy crew did plot to pull his highness down , great albany a noble scot did raise unto a crown . 7. great albany they swear , he before any other , shall be immediate heir unto his royal brother , who will in spight of all his foes , his lawful rights maintain , and all the fops that interpose , old jemmy's york again . 8. the whigs and zealots plot to banish him the nation , but the renowned scot hath wrought his restauration . with high respects they treat his grace his royal cause maintain ; brave albany ( to scotland's praise ) is mighty york again . 9. against his envious fates the kirk hath taught a lesson ; a blessing on the states , to settle the succession . they real were , both knight and lord and will his rights maintain ; by royal parliament restor'd , old jemmy's come again . 10. and now he 's come again , in spight of all pretenders , great albany shall reign amongst the faiths defenders . let whig and brimigham repine ; they shew their teeth in vain ; the glory of the brittish line , old jemmy's come again . the honour of great york and albany , to a new tune . 1. the commons now are at a stand , and evermore i hope shall be ; for scotland will be a help at hand , for great james duke of al-ba-ny . for scotland , 2. a braver nation he can't have , for love , for truth , for loyalty ; each man will fight into his grave , for great james duke of albany . each man , &c. 3. a souldier stout is he , and brave , as ever any man did see , god bless the king , and queen , and save our great james , duke of albany , god bless , &c. 4. he very wise , and pious is , there 's no man knows the contrary ; then damn'd be him that thinks amiss , of great james duke of albany . then damn'd &c. 5 ▪ all loyal subjects him must love , the heir apparent , still is he , next to the king , there 's none above our great james duke of albany . next to the king , &c. 6. then let our reason our ill will sway , and every man upon his knee , i do not mean to drink , but pray , for great james duke of albany . i do not mean , &c. 7. there 's no man is so mad to think , that drinking can availing be , 't is better for to fight than drink , for great james duke of albany . 't is better , &c. 8. yet do not think i 'll bawk his health , but with my cup , most moderately , i 'll drink , i 'll fight , and spend my wealth , for great james duke of albany . i 'll drink , i 'll fight , and spend , &c. the well-wishers to the royal family . to a new tune . 1. now the tories , that glories in royal jemmy's return , the tavern shall roar it and score it , your caps and bonnets burn : let the lads and lasses set foot foot in their turn ; and he that passes his glasses , may he never scape the horn : royal james is come again , there 's for honest men room again , the true heir is come again ; fop pretenders we scorn , then hey boys laugh it , and quaff it , let whigs and zealots mourn . 2. let impeaches and speeches be with the authors pull'd down ; and all that preaches or teaches against the heir of the crown : no more the zealous shall tell us of the succession of the throne ; till the rebellious so zealous , his lawful interest own : monarchy is got up again , every man take his cup again , till we make the whigs stoop again : who our peace wou'd enthrall : and every rebel that libel'd , do at his foot stool fall , 3. let 's be loyal and joy-al , spite of each factious caball , who daily deny all , defie all , that we can loyalty call ; who smoaking , and soaking , with the return of the rump , sadly looking , sit croaking , to see it wore to 'th stump ; then set the glass round again , for our time let 's not spend in vain , but let us now drink a main , fill it up to the brim : come round boys let 's trowl it & bowl it , till our joys they do swim . 4. for him our choices and voices , shall all hereafter be free , whilst each one rejoyces , our noises shall defend the raging o' th sea ; we 'l attend him , befriend him , let malice vote what it will ; coyn we 'l lend him , defend him , and we 'l rejoyce in him still : then let us no mirth refrain , since that now he is safe again , well having escap'd the main ; from the salt waters set free , then hey boys laugh it , and quaff it , and let us mery be . 5. though the zealous , grow jealous , and create much needless fear , by which means they 'd drill us and will us . like themselves to appear ; but no wonder , since plunder , is that at which they aim , that the whigs wander under religious guile , which they shame : but at last we have found them , and from the bottom unwound them , so that each man may found them , and laugh at the old cause , which was the ruine and undoing , of king and kingdoms laws . 6. then let 's rout 'em and flout 'em , who rails at the succession , that would rout him whom we so esteem , beyond all expression ; fill clarret , who 's for it ? and let each bumper go round , who doth bar it , or spare it may he with goats horns be crown'd : here 's a health to the dutchess , grant her long life , health , and riches , and a young prince is all our wishes , whilst all the factious repine then come away wi 't , ne'r stay it , let no man baulk his wine . london's joy and loyalty on his royal highnesses return from scotland . 1. rouze up ye tories of this factious land , now loyalty hath got the upper-hand : the rabble-rout their errours shall disclaim , and homage pay to york's illustrious name ; the london mayor is faithful to his trust , and the two present sh'riffs wou'd fain be counted just ; and every factious rebel through the town agree to shew the heighth of london's loyalty . 2. now the loud threatning tempest is dispers'd , and all their shamming plots are quite revers'd ; great jemmy's happy restauration here makes a new day in london ●s hemisphere : the clouds are gone that did oppress his reign , and joyful day breaks forth in this glad land again . then to the mighty duke of york and albany now london , london , shew thy loyalty . 3. a royal pair with their illustrious train , to london's joy are now return'd again ; great gracious charles does in the front appear , and princely york advances in the rear ; the right successor is return'd again , whom former faction sent an exile o'r the main , then to the mighty duke of york and albany now london , london shew thy loyalty . 4. heave'n bless the king , preserve the lawful heir , let ●ories sing , and brimighams despair : to see great york invested in his own , spight of all fop pretenders to the throne ; then truth and justice shall our joys restore ; associations shall destroy our peace no more , but to our gracious king , with york and albany all subjects seek ▪ to shew their loyalty . the tory song on his highness return from scotland . to the tune of , the prince of orange 's delight . 1. room , room for cavaliers , bring us more wine , his highness is landed , about with the glass ; the brimigham-piece is but counterfeit coyn yet fain for good sterling among as wou'd pass . hey bowman more wine , fill up to the brim ; while zealots repine we 'll frolick and sing ; for oats , is confounded , that turn-coated round-head ; then let us be loyal , and true to our king : 2. a little old conjurer threw so much brass , and pewter and copper amongst the true coyn that hardly a peny of money can pass , but what is clipt , plated , or wash'd very fine but thine boy , and mine , bears the stamp of the king ; then let 's have more wine , while good money we bring ; john thum is confounded , that brazen-fac'd round-head ; then let us be loyal , and true to our king. 3. with such a bold , impudent and brazen-face they'd pass for true mettle , although but wash'd o'r ; the kings stamp & image they only disgrace as they did their lord and creators before ; but thine boy , and mine , bears the stamp of the king , then let 's have more wine , while good money we bring ; for care is confounded , that scismatick round-head ; then let us be loyal , and true to our king. 4. yet ( what is most noted ) these brimigham elves , to bear the true stamp are so brazen'd with art , that they wou'd have nothing to pass but themselves , although they 're but copper and gaul at the heart . but thine boy , and mine , bears the stamp of the king , then let 's have more wine , while good sterling we bring ; for dick is confounded , that libelling roundhead , then let us be loyal , and true to our king. 5. they call themselves loyal , nay more , love the king yet royalists , tory and papist mis call ; and rail at all those who stand up for the thing , with l'strange , heraclitus and thompson , & all gainst these the slaves their libels they fling ; yet they are the knaves , that do libel the king ; but langley's confounded , that pamphletting roundhead ; then let us be loyal , and true to our king. 6. thus brimighams still the stamp royal rebukes with brazen-fac'd impudence guided so fine who hates the king's picture as well as the dukes , and loves it in nothing , unless in his coyn ; but let him still pass for a counterfeit thing , about with the glass , and merrily sing ; for ben is confounded ; that cuckoldly round-head ; then let us be loyal , and true to our king. to the king and the queen , fill it up to the top. the d. & the dutchess , whom heav'n has restor'd ; and next , hans in kelder , the royal blew-cap ; to all the true issue and each loyal lord : crown every glass , fill 'em up to the brim : about let 'em pass , while we merrily sing ; for baldwin's confounded , that impudent round-head ; then let us be loyal , and true to our king. 8. to brave albemarle the next we 'l pursue , with worster and clarendon , seymour , and hall — to all to their king , and their country are true , who loyalty love , and confound the caball . if monarchy shine , and bowman but bring good store of brisk wine , we 'l make the dog ring ; for tony's confounded , that spiggoted round-head ; then let us be loyal , and true to our king. the plot cram'd into jones placket to the tune of , jones placket is torn , &c. 1. have you not lately heard of lords sent to the tower , who ' gainst the popish plotters , seem'd men of chiefest power : but now they 're got into the plot , and all their power 's in vain , for the plot is rent and torn , and can never be mended again , 't is rent and torn , and torn and rent , and rent and torn in twain : for the plot is rent and torn , and will never be mended again . 2. fitz-harris they suppos'd a sitting instrument , the duke , the queen , and king himself to circumvent : but now he 's hang'd and all his gang will follow the same strain , for the plot is rent and torn , and will never be mended again , &c. 3. the joyner he did march to oxford , to be try'd , where he did find a jury , who were not whiggify'd : and for his joyning in the plot , a halter he did gain , for the plot is rent and torn ▪ and will never be mended again , &c. 4. they say that mr. dugdale , so honest and so true , is one of the king●s evidence , against this wicked crew : and now they aim him to defame , but all will be in vain , for the plot is rent and torn , and will never be mended again , &c. 5. the crafty shaftsburyy , is caught in his own snare , he has hired many rogues , themselves for to forswear : are now undone , with hetherington , and all his hired train , for the plot is rent and torn and will never be mended again , &c. 6. thus innocence we see begins for to appear , since rogues for want of pardons , the truth are fain to swear : had it been so , some years ago , we 'd hit on the right vein , for the plot is rent and torn , and will never be mended again ▪ &c. 7. the pious commons vote it was a popish plot , which factious lords promote , 't was death to think it not ; thus piously they all agree a plot for to maintain , but now ' ●is rent and torn , and will never be mended again , &c. 8. against the lawful heir , full many a bill they pass upon the royal chair to place a gawdy ass ; but they may ride to 'th devil astride with noll new plots to feign , for the plot is rent and torn , and will never he mended again , &c. 9. when they cou'd rail no more of pious lords and peers , to set them as before together by the ears ; to shrives and mayor they made this prayer , they wou'd the plot maintain , but now 't is rent and torn , and will never be mended again , &c. 10. brave rich and famous north , ( whom factions did oppose ) for loyalty and worth , the noble mayor has chose , who hand in hand will faithful stand to royal charles's reign , for the plot is rent and torn , and will never be mended again . 't is rent and torn , and torn and rent ; and rent and torn in twain . for the plot is rent and torn , and will never be mended again . the happy return of the old dutch miller . to the tune of the first . 1. good people of england i hope you have had experience of my art in my trade ;

nor ' ●other our properties command , he 's a kings-man , north is nothing better , they walk hand in hand he you know is the lord mayor's creature : and therefore 't is not sit that they should stand ▪ 5. where are now our liberties and freedom ? where shall we find friends when we shou'd to bleed 'em and pull the tory's down , to push for our int'rest , who can blame us ? sheriffs rule the town , when we loose our darling ignoramvs : we lose the combat , and the day 's their own : 6. then let every man stand by his brother , poll o're ten times , poll for one another ; what a pother you see the tory's make , now or never , now to save your charter , or your hearts will ake , if it goes for them expect no quarter : if law and justice rule , our heels must shake : 7. rout , a rout , joyn 'prentice , bore and peasant , let the white-hall party call it treason , 't is treason we should our necks defend , routs and ryots , tumults and sedition , poll 'em o're again , these do best agree with our condition ; if monarchy prevail , we 're all lost men . 8. the lord mayor is loyal in his station , 'las what will become o' th reformation ; o' th' nation if the sheriffs be loyal too ? wrangle , brangle , huff and keep a clatter ; if we loose the field , poll 'em o're again , it makes no matter : for tho' we loose the day , we scorn to yield . 9. ten for box , and twenty for papillion , north a thousand , and dubois a million : what villain our interest dare oppose ? with those noble patriots thus they sided , to uphold the cause ; but the good lord mayor the case decided : and once again two loyal worthies chose . 10. noble north , and famous box promoted , by due course and legal choice allotted ; they voted to be the city sheriffs and may they both to londons commendation , her ancient rights restore , to do that justice to the king and nation , which former factions have deny'd before . loyalty triumphant , on the confirmation of mr. north and mr. rich , sheriffs of london and middlesex . tune , joy to the bridegroom . 1. fill up the bowl , and set it round , the day is won , the sheriffs crown'd ; the rabble flies , the tumults yield ; and loyalty maintains the field ; saint george for england , then amain , to royal charles this ocean drain ▪ 2. with justice may it ever flow , and in an endless circle go ; the brim with conqu'ring bays be crown'd , and faction in the dregs lie drown'd : then to the qveen , and royal james , sacrifice your flowing thames . 3. thanks to sir john , our good lord mayor , ' gainst sheriffs tricks he kept the chair ; the court and city's right maintains , while head strong faction broke the reins : then to the famous sir john moor , may after-age that name adore . 4. what zeal ( ye whigs ) to the old cause . thus makes you act against the laws ; that none for sheriff must contend , but your old ignoramvs friend ? but now , your hopes are all destroy'd , and your two champions laid aside . 5. is this your love to church and state , that no good man must serve of late , while you can find one factious rogue , to sway the poll , and get your vogue ? by unjust means your rights you claim , and lawless force maintain the same . 6 but brave sir john , while th'storms increase , his wisdom made the tumults cease ; in spight of all illegal poll , the routs and ryots did controll : whence he shall gain a lasting name , and after-age record his fame . 7 amongst the men of chiefest worth , the vote is given for loyal north , in spight of pilkington and shute , papilion , and the rabble rout : then to brave north a double doze , who the strong factions did oppose . 8. now box withdraws , dubois contends , and noble rich the stage ascends ; by legal ( ' gainst illegal ) vote , the loyal tribune they promote : then to brave rich a health off hand , who the loud tumults did withstand . 9. for ropes and gibbets the next year , the whigs we hope ) need not despair ; if rich find timber , ( give them scope ) brave north will never grudge them rope : then , to conclude , we 'll crown the bowl with a health to th● k. and each loyal soul. london's joy and triumph , on the instalment of sir william pritchard l. mayor for the ensuing year . tune , tangier march : 1. let the whigs revile , the tories smile , that their business is compleated , let all rejoyce with heart and voice , that the whig's at last defeated . the whigs for loyalty so fam'd , with all their hopes are undone ; since now brave pritchard is proclaim'd the loyal mayor of london . 2. you polish brace whose brazen face , to the chair wou'd be aspiring , see the rabble crowd who poll'd so loud ; are bawk'd beyond admiring ; learn in time to mitigate your bold tumultuous fury , er'e you shall find , you trust too late , to ignoramus jury . 3. let player tom receive the doom , so long due for his cheating , who did purloyn the city coyn , to keep up holy meeting ; to rob the orphan , and the poor . his great discharge of trust is , and run upon the widdows score , to do the city justice . 4. let ward repent , and jenks relent , their practice so malitious , let hobland rue with all the crew , that they were so officious ; such jews as these , who did deny their saviour for a tester , no doubt again wou'd crucify their sovereign lord and master . 5. for north and rich , and every such , they set up a papillion ; ' gainst pritchard hold , with cornish , gold , with ryot and rebellion : to love the king can you pretend , who royalists deny all ; and with such vigour dare contend , against the man that 's loyal . 6. for shame in time repent your crime your ryot and commotion ; and to the mayor , who kept the chair , pay all your just devotion ; such was their loyalty of late , to give the king no money : but freely throw away their plate , to joyn with rebel tony. 7. thus you before did run on score with royal charles your master ; like drunk or mad spent all you had to uphold a bold imposture : let not knaves again betray , and rob you of your reason , then leave your factious heads to pay the forfeit of your treason . 8. with all your heat what did you get ? with all your din and quarter ; but to involve with each resolve the more entangled charter ? to charles your just allegiance give , your properties , then plead em , defending the prerogative , you best protect your freedom . ryot upon ryot ;

and struck so many loyal martyr's dead , now in the sun flies boldly at the head. slaves that resist all power but their own ; he that would usurp the chair , would next usurp the throne , who neither royal heir nor loyal mayors allow : oh! london ! london ! where 's thy charter now ? 3. london , of faction's the eternal spring , yet so much favour'd by a gracious king ; who does such deeds that have no parallel , only to teach thy children to rebel . this will record thee in the books of fame ; this bold attempt no law , nor precedent can claim : blood and the crown , papillion and dubois out-do : oh! london ! london ! where 's thy charter now ? 4. was this the way your ryots to repair ; in spight o●th charter , to arrest the mayor ? and gainst the sh'riffs your sham actions bring , ' cause justly chosen , and approv'd by th' king ? what call you this , but treason ? whilst the fool that did arrest the mayor expects himself to rule ; and , save his own , no other power would allow : oh! london ! london ! where 's thy charter now ? 5. hang up the factious heads that dare oppose the sword of justice , and the ancient laws : who in his office dare arrest the mayor , disowns the pow'r that plac'd him in the chair . tantara ra-ra ! let the trumpets sound , double all your guards ▪ and let the cent'nels stand their ground : he that arrests the mayor , would bind the monarch too : oh! london ! london ! where 's thy charter now ? london's lamentation for the loss of their charter . tune , packington's pound . 1. you free-men , and masters , and prentices mourn , for now you are left with your charter forlorn : since london was london , i dare boldly say , for your ryots you never so dearly did pay ; in westminster-hall your dagon did fall , that caus'd you to ryot and mutiny all : oh london ! oh london ! thou 'dst better had none , than thus with thy charter to vie with the throne . 2. oh london ! oh london ! how cou'dst thou pretend against thy defender thy crimes to defend ? thy freedoms and rights from kind princes did spring , and yet in contempt thou withstandest thy king : with bold brazen face they pleaded thy case , in hopes to the charter the king wou'd give place : oh london ! thou 'dst better no charter at all , than thus for rebellion thy charter shou'd fall . 3. since britains to london came over to dwell , you had an old charter , to buy and to sell ; and whilst in allegiance each honest man lives , then you had a charter for lord mayor and sheriffs : but when , with your pride , you began to backslide , and london of factions did run w'th ' tide ▪ then london , oh london ! 't is time to withdraw , lest the floud of your factions the land over-flow . 4. when faction and fury of rebels prevail'd ; when coblers were kings , & monarchs were jayl'd ; when masters in tumults their prentices led , and the tail did begin to make war with the head ; when thomas and kate did bring in their plate , t' uphold the old cause of the rump of the state then tell me , oh london ! i prethee now tell , hadst thou e'r a charter to fight and rebel ? 5. when zealous sham sheriffs the city oppose , in spight of the charter , the king , and the ●aws , and make such a ryot and rout in the town , that never before such a racket was known ; when ryoters dare arrest the lord may'r , and force the king's substitute out of the chair oh london ! whose charter is now on the lees , did your charter e'r warrant such actions as these ? 6. alas for the brethren ! what now must they do , for choosing whig-sheriffs and burgesses too ? the charter with patience is gone to the pot , and the doctor is lost in the depth of the plot : st. stephen his flayl no more will prevail , nor sir robert's dagger , the charter to bail : oh london ! thou 'dst better have lain in the fire , then thus thy old charter shou'd stick in the mire . 7. but since with your folly , your faction and pride , you sink with the charter , who strove with the tide , let all the lost rivers return to the main from whence they descended ; they 'l spring out again ; submit to the king in every thing , then of a new charter new sonnets we 'll sing : as london , ( the phoenix of england , ) ne'r dies , so out of the flames a new charter will rise . the wine-coop●rs delight , tune of the delights of the bottle . the delights of the bottle are turn'd out of dores , by factious fanatical sons of damn'd whores . french wines prohibition , meant no other thing but to poyson the subject ▪ & begger the king. good nature 's suggested with dregs like to choak her , of fulsom stum'd wine by the cursed wine cooper our plaguy wine cooper has tamper'd so much , to find out the subtilty of the false dutch. he tinctures prickt white wine , that never was good , till it mantles , and sparkles & looks like bulls bloud : but when it declines , and its spirits expire , he adds more ingredients , and makes it look higher his old rotten pipes where he keeps all his trash for fear they should burst ▪ sir , he hoops them with ash . when the sophistication begins for to froth , and boils on the fret , sir , he wisely pulls forth a tap , which gives vent to the grounds of the cause , and then is to vamp up a second red nose . then this dingy wine-cooper stops it up again , and keeps it unvented till 't is all on a flame . the intelligences then were invented to show , where wine of strange vertues in plenty did flow . people from all parts of the nation did come , both lords , knights and gentlemen , doctor & bum. the cooper then pulls the tap out of his side , and drinks to the elders of all the good tribe . but when they had gus●'d about all the bowls , they found a strange freedom it gave to their souls of secrets in nature that never were known , it gave inspiration from beggar to throne . for the cooper himself full brimmers did draw , and all the whole gang were oblig'd to do so . amongst these gabals there was no such thing , as a health once propos'd to the d. or the king. but drank to that idol of hopes in their powers . and sons of most infamous hackney old whores . then the rable had notice from smith and from ben what a heavenly liquor was sent amongst men . both tinkers and coblers the broom men and sweep , before this wine-cooper in flocks they did meet ; and each under-foot stampt his old greazy bonnet to drink m — th's health , boys , whate'r come on it . the cooper preceiving his trade to approach , he then was resolved once more to debauch . to encourage the rable , and shew himself stout , he pull'd out the spigot amongst the whole rout which kindness provok'd them to swear they would bring such a trade to his house as wou'd make him a king. a hat or a bottle was still at the tap ; but zealots sometimes laid their mouths to the fat. they charg'd their brisk bumpers so many times round , till part of the mobile sprawl'd on the ground : but when this damn'd liquor was get in their pates , they fell to bumbasting , disord'ring of states . they began to cant dangers by formal sedition and swear lawful allegiance ' against lawful succession . when these propositions began to take fire , they screw'd their presumptions a hole or two higher ; but still they keep under hugh peters's cloak , to bring in the devil , to drive out the pope . but then they began for to pick at the crown each thinking that he deserv'd one of his own . then all the kings guards they thought fit to indict , swear treason ' gainst all that maintain●d the king's right . both papists and protestants no matter whether , they are not of our party , let 's hang 'em together , next the chief of our game is to keep the king poor , and our senators must the militia secure . the navy & cinque-ports we 'll have in our hands , and then we 'll make th' kingdom obey our commands . then if charles do withstand us , we need not to fight , to make eighty one to out-do forty eight . what ever objections great loyalists bring , old adam liv'd happy without e'r a king. then why may not we , that are much wiser than he , subdue the whole world , sir , by our sov'raignty : if one man alone can keep three nations under , then why may not we that are kings without number ? right , said the cooper , & shak'd his old noddle , three kingdoms we 'll toss , like a child in a cradle stick close to this liquor which i do prepare , 't will make us as splendid as noll in his chair , we 'll kindle old plots , by contriving of new , till none shall be safe but the cooper and you. o brave boys !

poor toney's dead . 4. for commonwealth he stood , pretending liberty ; and for the publick good would pull down monarchy : the church and state he would divorce , the holy cause to wed : and in time did hope to confound the pope , to be himself the head. 5. a tap in 's side he bore , to broach all sorts of ill , for which seditious store the crowd ador'd him still : he spit his venom through the town , with which the saints possest , would preach and prate ' gainst church and state , while he perform'd the rest . 6. when any change of state or mischief was at hand , he had a working pate , and devil at command : he forg●d a plot , for which the heads of faction gave their votes ; but now the plot is gone to pot , what will become of oates ? 7. under the fair pretence of right , religion , law , excluding the true prince , the church would overthrow : with such religious shams he brought the rabble on his side ; and , for his sport , the town and court in parties would divide . 8. now what 's become of all his squinting policy , which wrought your dagon●s fall , from justice forc●d to flie ? old and decrepid , full of pains ▪ as he of guilt was full : he fell to fate , and now ( too late ) he leaves us to condole . 9. now , learn ye whigs in time , by his deserved fall , to expiate his crime , e're fate revenge you all ; for rights , religion , liberty , are but the sham-pretence to anarchy ; but loyalty obeys the lawful prince : hue-and-song after patience ward . tune , hail to the myrtle shades . 1. hail to london fair town , all hail to the mayor and the shrieves ; hail to the scarlet gown , whose sentence our patience grieves : justice and law hath prevail'd , with patience a verdict to find , ' gainst patience , whose conscience fail'd ; oh patience !

or , jenneys lamentation for the loss of jockey . a pleasant tune , sung in the play call'd , the royalist . 1. twa bony lads were sawny and jockey , sawny was lewd , and jockey unluckey , sawney was tall , well favour'd , and witty , but i 'se in my heart thought jockey more prety for when he su'd me , woo'd me , and view'd me , never was lad so like to undo me , fie i cry'd , and almost dy'd , lest jockey should gang and come no more to me . 2. jockey would love , but he would not marry , and i'se had a dread that i'se should miscary his cunning tongue with wit was so guilded , that i'se was afraid my heart would have yielded for daily he press'd me , kiss'd me , and bless'd me , lost was the hour methought when he mist me , crying , denying , and sighing , i woo'd him , and muckle ado i had to get fro him . 3. but cruel fate rob'd me of my jewel , for sawny would make him fight in duel , and down in a dale with cypress surrounded , ha! there to his death poor jockey was wounded but when he thrill'd him , fell'd him , kill'd him , who could express my grief that beheld him ? raging , i tore my hair for to bind him , and vow'd and swore ne'r to stay behind him . 4. i sigh'd and sob'd until i was weary , to think my poor jockey should so miscarry , and never was any in such a sad taking as hapless jenny , whose heart is still a king , to think how i crost him , tost him & lost him ; too late it was to coyn words to accost him , alone then i sate lamenting and crying , still wishing each minute that i were a dying . 5 ah! jockey since thou behind thee hast left me , and death of all joys and all comforts bereft me , thy destiny i will lament very mickle and down my pale cheeks salt tears they shall trickle ; to ease me of trouble each bubble shall double , to think of my jockey so loyal and noble , i 'se grieve for to think that those eyes are benighted wherein mournful jenny so much once delighted 6. that blow oh sawny was base and unlucky , that robbed poor jenny of her dearest jockey , a bony boon youth 't was known he was ever to please his poor jenny was still his endeavor ; but 't was fortune uncertain , our parting , procured & caused this breaking & smarting , but whilst i do live 't is resolved by jenny , for jockeys dear sake ne'r to lig with any . 7. this jenny for jockey lay sighing and weeping , oft wringing her hands while others was sleeping but sawney to see her thus strangely distressed , for the loss of her love , his heart was oppressed , tho' this deluder , view'd her , and sued her , 't was all but in vain , for she call'd him intruder and said , if you die for my love i will mock ye , for you were the cause of the death of my jockey . 8. that bony brave scot hath left nene behind him , that like to himself was worthy of minding , ●is fathers delight , and the joy of his mother ; and scotland before ne'r bred sike another , when i think on his beauty , let duty confute ye . death never before had sike a great booty , for all that do know him , do sigh & bewail him , but oceans of tears now can little avail him . 9. ah! jockey there 's nene that are left to inherit the tythe of thy virtues , thou wonderful merit , but whilst i do live thou shalt not be forgotten , he sing out thy praise when thy carkass is rotten for thou wert the fairest , rarest , and dearest , and now thou art dead like a saint thou appearest , i 'll have on thy tomb-stone these verses inserted , here lies hopeless jockey , who was so true hearted . 10. and when this thy motto shall fairly be written , there 's none shall read but with grief shall be smitten and say 't was pity that one so true hearted should by cruel death from his jenny be parted . and thus i with weeping , creeping , and peeping look into thy grave where thou dost lie sleeping till sighing my self i have brought to my end , to show that poor jenny was jockeys true friend . the winchester wedding ; or , ralph of redding , and black bess of the green. to a new country dance : or , the king 's jigg● 1. at winchester was a wedding , the like was never seen twixt lusty ralph of redding , and bony black bess of the green ▪ the fidlers were crowding before , each lass was as fine as a queen , there was a hundred and more , for all the country came in : brisk robin led rose so fair , she lookt like a lilly o'th'vale , and ruddy-fac'd harry led mary , and roger led bouncing nell . 2 with tommy came smiling katy , he helpt her over the stile , and swore there was none so pretty , in forty and forty long mile : kit gave a green gown to betty , and lent her his hand to rise . but jenny was jeer'd by watty , for looking blew under the eyes : thus merrily chatting all , they pass'd to the bride-house along with jonny and pretty fac'd nanny , the fairest of all the throng . 3. the bridegroom came out to meet 'em , afraid the dinner was spoil'd , and usher'd 'em in to treat 'em , with bak'd , and roasted , and boyl●d ; the lads were so frolick and jolly , for each had his love by his side , but willy was melancholly , for he had a mind to the bride : then philip begins her health , and turns a beer-glass on his thumb , but jenkin was reckon'd for drinking , the best in christendom . 4. and now they had din'd , advancing into the midst of the hall , the fidlers struck up for dancing , and jeremy led up the brawl ; but margery kept a quarter , a lass that was proud of her pelf , ' cause arthur had stoln her garter , and swore he would tye it himself : she strugl'd and blusht , and frown'd , and ready with anger to cry , ' cause arthur with tying her garter , had slip'd his hand too high . 5. and now for throwing the stocking , the bride away was led , the bridegroom got drunk was knocking for candles to light 'em to bed : but robbin that found him silly , most friendly took him aside , the vvhile that his wife vvith willy , vvas playing at hoopers-hide ; and novv the vvarm game begins , the critical minute vvas come , and chatting , and billing , and kissing , vvent merily round the room . 6. pert stephen vvas kind to betty , and blith as a bird in the spring , and ●ommy vvas so to katy , and wedded her vvith a rush ring : sukey that danc'd at the cushion , an hour from the room had been gone , and barnaby knevv by her blushing , that some other dance had been done ; and thus of fifty fair maids , that came to the wedding vvith men , scarce five of the fifty vvas left ye , that so did return again . a narrative of the old plot , being a new song . tune , some say the ●apists had a plot , &c. 1. when traytors did at pop●ry rail , because it taught confession : when bankrupts bawl'd for property , and bastards for succession . 2. when tony durst espouse the cause , spight of his pox and gout : when speaking williams purg'd the house by spewing members out . 3. when hunt a twy-fac't pamphlet wrote , the embleme of his soul : when oats swore whom he pleas'd in 's plot ▪ and reign'd without controul . 4. when l — ce too lampoon'd the court , and libell'd cats and doggs : when witnesses , like mushroms , sprung out of the irish boggs . 5. then perkin thought 't was time to prove his claim to kingship fair ; and 'faith t is sit the peeples son should be the peoples heir . 6. so fill'd with zeal he and his knight caress and court the rout ; and my lord duke goes up and down to shew his grace about . 7. tho' f — d lord g — y would not ingage upon that idle score ; for he would have a common-wealth , as well as common whore . 8. he envy●d his old friend a crown but why i can't devise ; for 's grace had grac't his lordships head with horns of noble size . 9. then johnson wrote his patrons creed , a doctrine fetch 't from hell : 't was christian-like to disobey , and gospel to rebel . 10. julian his pattern and his text ; a meaner theam he scorns : first represents him at the desk , and then apostate turns . 11. like his , his patrons zeal grew high , th' exclusion to advance ; and the right heir must be debarr'd , for fear of rome and france . 12. the zealous commons then resolv'd , ( and they knew what they did ) by whomsoe're the king should fall , the papists throats should bleed ▪ 13. so murd'ring ponyards off are slipt into a guiltless hand : and innocence is sacrific'd , whilst malefactors stand . 14. by hell's assistance then they fram'd their damn'd association : and worthy men , and men worthy , divided all the nation 15. fools oft and madmen leave the less , and choose the greater evil : thus they for fear of popery , run head-long to the devil . 16. at last the loyal souls propose to ease their sovereign's cares ; if he 'll sit down , and first remove their jealousies and fears . 17. just the old trick and sham device of belzebub their sire : he but fall down and worship them , they 'll grant his hearts desire . 18. nay lives and fortunes then shall be entirely all his own ; if he will fairly once disclaim a brother and a crown . the praise of the dairy-maid , with a lick at the cream-pot , or fading rose . tune , packington's pound . 1. let wine turn a spark , & ale huff like a hector . let pluto drink coffee , & jove his rich nector . neither cider nor sherry , metheglin nor perry , shall more make me drunk , which the vulgar call merry : these drinks o're my fancy no more shall prevail but i 'll take a full soop at the mery milk-pail . 2. in praise of a dairy i purpose to sing ; but all things in order ; first god save the king , and the queen i may say , that ev'ry may-day , has many fair dairy-maids all fine and gay . assist me , fair dam'sels to finish this theme , and inspire my fancy with strawberries & cream 3. the first of fair dairy-maids , if you 'll believe , was adam's own wife , your great-grand-mother eve ; she milk'd many a cow , as well she knew how , tho' butter was then not so cheap as 't is now ; she hoarded no butter nor cheese on a shelf , for the butter and cheese in those days made it self . 4. in that age or time there was no damn'd money , yet the children of israel fed on milk & honey ; no queen you could see of the highest degree , but would milk the brown cow with the meanest she their lambs gave them cloathing , their cows gave them meat . in a plentiful peace all their joys were compleat . 5. but now of the making of cheese we shall treat , that nurser of subjects , bold britains chief meat . when they first begin it , to see how the rennet begets the first curd , you wou'd wonder what 's in it . then from the blue whey , when they put the curds by . they look just like amber , or clouds in the sky . 6. your turkey sherbet , and arabian tea , is dish-water-stuff to a dish of new whey ; for it cools head and brains , ill vapours it drains , and tho' your guts rumble , 't will ●e'r hurt your brains . court-ladies i' th morning will drink a whole pottle , and send out their pages with tankard & bottle . 7. thou daughter of milk , and mother of butter , sweet cream , thy due praises how shall i utter ! for when at the best , a thing 's well exprest , we are apt to reply , that 's the cream of the jest : had i been a mouse , i believe in my soul i had long since been drown'd in a cream-bowl . 8 the elixir of milk , the dutch-mens delight , by motion and tumbling thou bringest to light ; but oh , the soft stream that remains of the cream ! old morpheus ne'r tasted so sweet in a dream ; it removes all obstructions , depresses the spleen , and makes an old bawd like a wench of fifteen . 9. amongst the rare virtues that milk does produce a thousand more dainties are daily in use ; for a pudding i 'll tell ye , e'r it goes in the belly , must have good milk , both the cream & the jelly ; for a dainty fine pudding without cream or milk is like a citizen's wife without satten or silk . 10. in the virtues of milk there 's more to be muster'd the charming delights of cheese-cake and custard ; for at totenam-court you can have no sport , unless you give custards and cheese-cakes for 't : and what 's jack pudding that makes us to laugh , unless he hath got a great custard to quaff . 11. both pan-cakes & fritters of milk have good store but a devonshire whit-pot requires much more . no state you can ●hink , tho' you study and wink , from the lusty sack-posset to poor posset-drink ; but milk's the ingredient , tho' sack 's ne'r the worse ; for 't is sack makes the man , tho' milk makes the nurse , 12. but now i shall treat of a dish that is cool , a rich clouted cream , or a goose-berry-fool ; a lady i heard tell , not far off did dwell , made her husband a fool , and yet pleas'd him full well : give thanks to the dairy then every lad , that from good-natur'd women such fools may be had . 13. when the dam'sel has got the cows teat in her hand how she merily sings , while smiling i stand then with pleasure i rub , yet impatient i crub , when i think of the blessings of a syllabub : oh dairy-maids , milk-maids , such bliss ne'r oppose . if e'r you 'll be happy ; i speak under the rose . 14. this rose was a maiden once of your profession , till the rake and the spade had taken possession ; at length it was said , that one mr. edmond did both dig and sow in her parsley bed ; but the fool for his labour deserves not a rush , for grafting a thistle upon a rose-bush . 15. now milk maids , take warning by this maidens fall . keep what is your own , and then you keep all ; mind well your milk-pan , and ne'r touch a man , and you 'll still be a maid , let him do what he can . i am your well-wisher , then list to my word , and give no more milk than the cow can afford a new song sung before the loyal livery-men in wistminster-hall july the 19 th . 16● . 1. hark ! how noll & b●adshaw's heads above us cry , come , come , ye whigs that love us : come , ye faithful sons , fall down , and adore ye your fathers , whose glory was to kill kings before ye ; from treason & plots let your grave heads adjourn , and our glorious pinacle adorn . what though the scaffolds all are down here , to entertain the friends of the crown here ? we , whose lives & whose fortunes great charles will maintain , for monarchy-haters , damn'd associators , whigs , bastards and traytors , we 'll build 'em , we 'll build 'em again , let the infamous cut threats of princes be shamm'd all . their black souls be damn'd all , their blunderbuss ramm'd all with brimstone and fire infernal ; the gods that look o'r him did by wonders restore him , their angels sate round him that hour they crown'd him , and were listed his guards eternal . 2. how , like jove , the monarch of great-britain drives the gyant-sons of titan ! down ye rebel-crew ; ye slaves , lie under : see! charles with his thunder has dash'd 'em all asunder ; down from his bright heav'n the aspirers are hurl'd , lost in the common rubbish of the world : see , how the god returns victorious ! and to make his tryumph still more glorious , see , the whole hosts of heav'n the proud conquerour meet . the stars burn all brighter , the sun mounts uprighter , whilst his steeds gallop lighter , to see , see their jove made so great : with the brands & the stings of a conscience disloyal from the fiery tryal , let the coward slaves flie all , leave vengeance and gibbets behind 'em ; whilst the great desperadoes all turn'd renegadoes , with their old friends took napping , in some cole-hole at wapping shall charles and his justice find ' em . 3. let the malice of fanatick roundhead ( hatch'd in hell ) be still confounded ; the royal brothers no storm e're sever , but new wonders deliver , and their heirs reign for ever , on englands bright throne sit till times last sand runs , and stop their glories chariot with the suns . then for charles's second restauration , snatch'd from the jaws of the imps of damnation , we with feastings & revels will chear up our souls for the safety of caesar , in joy , and in pleasure , till our hearts shall o're-flow like our bowls . for a health to great charles , let the goblets be crown'd there , the huzza go round there , to the skies let it sound there , up to th' throne of great charles's protector , till the pleas'd gods that see , boys , grow as merry as we , boys , joyn their spheres in the chorus , make their whole heav'ns out-roar us , and pledge us in bumpers of nectar . a narrative of the popish-plot , shewing the cunning contrivance thereof . tune , packington 's pound . the contents of the first part. how sir godfrey is kill'd , his body they hide , which brought out in chair , a horseback does ride ; how jesuits disguis'd our houses to fire ; how subtly they plot , and the king's death conspire ; of divers great lords drawn in , to their bane , an irish army , and pilgrims from spain . 1. good people , i pray you , give ear unto me . a story so strange you have never been told how the jesuit , devil and pope did agree our state to destroy , and religion so old : to murder our king , a most horrible thing ! but first of sir godfrey his death i must sing ; for howe'r they disguiss't , we plainly can see , who murdr'd that knight , no good christian cou'd be . the truth of my story if any man doubt , we have witnesses ready to swear it all out . 2. at somerset house , there is plain to be seen a gate which will lead you into the back-court ; this place for the murder most sitting did seem , for thither much people do freely resort : his body they toss'd from pillar to ●ost , and shifted so often , t 'had like t' have been lost ; to which with dark-lanthorn the jesuits did go , but no ways distrusted our honest bedlow . the truth of my story , &c 3. lest such close contrivements at length might take air , when as his dead body corrupted did grow , they quickly did find an invisible chair , and set him on horse-back to ride at sohoe : his own sword to th' hilt. to add to their guilt , they thrust through his body , but no blood was spilt ; t' have it thought he was kill'd by a thief they did mean , so they left all 's money , and made his shoes clean . the truth of my story &c. 4. to shew now th' excess of jesuitical rage , they this loyal city to ruine would bring , ' cause you citizens are so religious and sage , and ever much noted as true to your king : t' your houses they go with fire and with tow , then pilfer your goods , & 't is well you ' scape so ; y'have seen how they once set the town all in flame ; yet 't is their best refuge , if we believe fame . the truth of my story , &c. 5. by bedlow's narration is shewn you most clear , how jesuits disguss●d into houses will creep ; in a porter's or carman's frock they appear , nay , will not disdain to cry chimney sweep ; or sell you small cole , then drop in some hole a fire-ball , or thrust it up by a long pole. but i now must relate a more tragical thing , how these villains conspir'd to murder our king. the truth of my story , &c. 6. at the white-horse in april was their main consul● ▪ where a writing these plotters wickedly frame ; the death of our sovereign was the result , to which at least forty all signed their name : they would not do that , in the place where they sat , trusty oates must convey't from this man to that ; to make sure work , by poyson the deed must be done and by a long dagger , and shot from a gun. the truth of my story . &c. 7. for fear at st. omers their oates might be miss'd , they agreed with the devil t' appear in his place , in a body of air , ( believe 't if you list ) which lookt just like oats ▪ & mov'd with the same grace . 't cou'd plot , it cou'd cant , turn eyes like a saint , and of our great doctor no feature did want : thus hundreds might swear they saw oates ev'ry day but true oats was here , and the devil say they . the truth of my story , &c. 8. from father oliva commissions did come , to raise a great army much treasure is spent ; the old man did once think to take post from rome for to ride at the head of them was his intent ; lord bellas was sit ( who can deny it ? to command in his place , when his gout wou'd permit ; lord stafford was proper'st to trust with their pay old ratcliffe to range them in battle-array . the truth of my story , &c. 9. th' high-treasurers place the l. powis did please , ( men of desp'rate fortunes oft venture too far ; ) lord peters would hazard estate , and his ease , and life for the pope too , in this holy war ; lord ar'ndel , of old so war-like and bold , made choice of a chancellors gown we are told ; all these did conspire with the lord castlemain , who now his good dutchess will ne'r catch again the truth of my story , &c. 10. great store of wild irish , both civil and wise , designed to joyn with the pilgrims of spain ; many thousands being ready all in good guise , had vow'd a long pilgrimage over the main ; to arm well this host when it came on our coast , black bills forty thousand are sent by the post , this army lay privately on the sea shore , and no man e'r heard of 'em since or before . the truth of my story , &c. the second part . the contents of the second part. of arms under-ground for horse and for foot , the king almost kill'd , but gun will not shoot , for which pickring is whip'd . all of them swear to be true to the plot ; yet oats , not for fear , but revenge , being turn'd away , and well hang●d , discovers them all ; the jesuits are hang'd . 1. the plot being thus subtly contriv'd , as you hear , to god knows how many this secret th' impart ; some famous for cheats , yet their faith they don't fear to tie a knave fast they had found a new art. they swore on a book , and sacrament took ; but you 'll find , if into their grave authors you look , to forswear●s no sin ( as th' recorder well notes ) nor treason , rebellion , nor cutting of throats . the truth of my story , &c. 2. still blinded by zeal , and inveigl'd by hope , store of arms they provide for fight & defence ; the lords must command as vice-roys of the pope , and all over england they raise peter-pence : their letters they send by bedlow their friend , or else by the post , to shew what they intend ; some hundreds oats saw , which the jesuits ●id write 't is a wonder not one of them e'r came to light . the truth of my story , &c. 3. pounds two hundred thousand they to ireland sent , fifteen thousand to wakeman for potions and pills , forty thousand in fire-works we guess that they spent , and at least ten thousand for the ' foresaid black-bills fifteen hundred more grove shou'd have , they swore , four gentleman-russians deserved fourscore ; pious pickering they knew was of masses more fond ; and for thirty thousand they gave him a bond. they truth of my story , &c. 4 these two , to kill the king by promises won , had now watch●d for some years in st. james's park , and pickering ( who never yet shot off a gun ) was about to take aim , for he had a fair mark ; just going to begin't , he missed his flint , and looking in pan , there was no powder in 't ; for which he their pardon does humbly beseech , yet had thirty good lashes upon his bare breech . the truth of my story , &c. 5 but a sadder mischance to the plot did befall , for oats their main engine fail'd , when it came to 't no marvel indeed if he cozen'd them all , who turn'd him a begging and beat him to boot . he wheeling about , the whole party did rout and from lurking holes did ferret them out , till running himself blind ; he none of them knew , and fainting at councel , he could not swear true . the truth of my story , &c. 6. to strengthen our doctor , brave bedlow's brought in , a more credible witness was not above-ground ; he vows and protests , what e'r he had been , he wou'd not swear false now for five hundred pound and why should we swear , they falsly would swear , to damn their own souls , and to lose by it here ; for oats , who before had no peny in purse discov'ring the plot , was seven hundred pound worse . the truth of my story , &c. 7 ▪ two witnesses more were let loose from the jayl , though one , 't is confest , did run back from his word ; ( in danger of life a good man may be frail ) and th' other they slander for cheating his lord ▪ t' each one of these men the jesuits brought ten , to disprove em in time & in place ; but what then ? one circumstance lately was sworn most clear , by a man who in hopes has four hundred a year . the truth of my story , &c. 8. besides 't was oft urg'd , we must always suppose , to murder the king a great plot there has been ; and who to contrive it so likely as those who murder and treasons do hold for no sin ; things being thus plain , to plead was in vain , the jury instructed again and again , did find them all guilty , & to shew 't was well done the people gave a shout for victory won . 9. 't is strange how these jesuits , so subtle and wise , should all the pope be so basely trepann'd , to hang with much comfort when he shall advise , and go to the devil too at his command . he may give them leave to lye and deceive ; but what when the rope does of life them bereave can his holiness , think you , dispense with that pain or by his indulgences raise them again ? the truth of my story , &c. 1o . yet , like mad men , of life and contempt they express and of their own happiness careless appear ; for life and for money not one wou'd confess , they 'd rather be damn'd than be rich & live here . but surely they rav'd , when god they out-brav'd , and thought to renounce him the way to be sav'd , and with lies in their mouths go to heav'n in a string so prosper all traytors , and god save the king. the truth of my story , &c. concordat cum kecordo cl. par. a general sale of rebellious houshold-stuff . tune , old simon the king. 1. rebellion hath broken up house , and hath left me old lumber to sell ; come hither and take your choice ; i 'le promise to use you well . will you buy the old speaker's chair , which was warm , and easie to sit-in , and often-times hath been made clean , when as it was fouler than sitting , says old symon the king , says old symon the king , with thread-bare cloaths , and his mamsy nose , sing hey ding , ding , a ding ding . 2. will you buy any bacon-flitches ?

't is some ●a●land acquaintance of conjurer oates , that has ty'd up your hands & imprison'd your boats you know he was ever a friend to the crew of all that to admiral james has bin true . where sculls once did row men walk to and fro , but e're four months are ended ' will hardly be so . should your hopes of a tha● by this weather be crost , your fortunes would soon be as hard as the frost . 3. in roast beef and brand ▪ much money is spent in booths made of blankets that pay no ground-rent with old fashion'd chimneys the rooms are secur'd and the houses from danger of fire ensur'd . the chief place you meet is call'd temple-street , if you do not believe me , then you may go see 't . from the temple the students do thither resort , who were always great patrons of revels & sport . 4. the citizen comes with his daughter or wife , and swears he ne'r saw such a sight in his life : the prentices starv'd at home for want of o●als , to catch them a heat do flock thither in shoals , while the country squire does stand and admire at the wondrous conjunction of water and fire . strait comes an arch wag , a young son of a whore , and lays the squires head where his heels ●ere before . 5. the rotterdam dutchman with fleet cutting scates , to pleasure the crowd shews his tricks & his feats , who like a rope-dancer ( for all his sharp steels ) his brains and activity lie in his heels . here are all things like fate are in slippery state , from the sole of the foot to the crown of the pate . while the rabble in sledges run giddily round , and nought but a circle of folly is found . 6. here damsels are handed like nymphs in the bath , by gentlemen-vshers with legs like a lath ; they slide to a tune , and cry give me your hand , when the tottering fops are scarce able to stand . then with fear and with care they arrive at the fair , where wenches sell glasses & crackt earthen ware ; to shew that the world , & the pleasures it brings , are made up of brittle and slippery things . 7. a spark of the bar with his cane and his muff , one day went to treat his new rigg'd kitchinstuff , let slip from her gallant , the gay damsel try'd ( as oft she had done in the country ) to slide , in the way lay a stump , that with a damn'd thump , she broke both her shooe-strings & cripl'd her rump . the heat of her buttocks made such a great thaw . she had like to have drowned the man of the law. 8. all you that are warm both in body and purse , i give you this warning for better or worse , be not there in the moonshine pray take my advice for slippery things have been done on the ice . maids there have been said to lose maiden-head , and sparks from full pockets gone empty to bed. if their brains and their bodies had not been too warm , 't is forty to one they had come to less harm . freezland-fair , or the icey bear-garden . tune , packington's pound . 1. i 'll tell ye a tale tho' before 't was in print ) if you make nothing on 't , than the devil is in 't 't is no tale of a tub , nor the plotting of treason , but of very strange things have been done this strange season . ye know there 's a brook , no , no , i mistook , for i could not find it , tho' long i did look ; yet i do not question , for all these odd freaks , we shall find it again when-e're the frost breaks . 2. if ye do believe what was told us by oats , ye never again will have use of your boats ; without ye do now imploy th' wheelers to do 't , ye never ne'r will be able to bring all about . he talkt of a plot , believe it , or not , to blow up the thames , and to do 't on the spot ; then either the doctor must now be believ'd , or else the doctor and we are deceiv'd 3. no water i see which does fairly incline , to make me believe that he has sprung his mine ; tho' that did not do what the doctor intended , yet he may for one thing be said to be commended : he said that the pope , pray mind , 't is a trope , wou'd send us his bulls , by the way of the hope ; and tho' for the sight we have all along bin waiting i t'other day saw on the ice a bull-baiting . 4. i hope you 'll believe me , 't was a fine sight , as ever i saw on a queen besses night ; tho' i must confess i saw no such dogs there , as us'd to attend on th' infallible chair . yet there were some men. whom i knew again , who bawl'd as they did , when they chose aldermen . and faith it had bin a most excellent show . had there bin but some crackers and serpents to throw . 5. another thing pleas'd me , as i hope for life , i saw of a man that had gotten a wife to see the rare w●imsies , the woman was sick , so never suspected a slippery trick : but when she came there , the ice wou'd not bear , but whether 't was his fault or hers , i can't swear ; yet thus far is true , had he lost his wife , he then might have pray'd for a frost all his life 6. there 's very fine tricks , & new subject for laughter , for there you may take a coach and go by water , so get a tarpauling too , as you are jogging , tho' a nymph t'other day for it got a good flogging . there was an old toast , of beef had a roast , which fell into th' sellar , and fairly was lost . o see in old proverbs sometimes there is truth , a man is not sure of his meat till in 's mouth . 7. but i had forgot my chief bus●ness i swear , to give an account of new temple street fair ; where most of the students do daily resort , to shew the great love they had always for sport . who oft give a token , i hope 't may be spoken , to whore in a mask , who squeaks like a pig a poke in to see such crack't vessels sail is a new matter , who have bin so shatter'd between wind & water . 8. like babel this fair 's not built with brick or stone though here i believe is as great confusion ; now blanckets are forc'd double duty to pay , on beds all the night , and for houses all day ; but there 's something more , some people deplore , their carelesly leaving open sellar door , which puts me in mind of jack presbyter's trick , who from pulpit descends the like way to old nick , 9. come all ye young damsels both swarthy and fair , this is the best place to put off your crackt ware ; here 's chapmen good store who too 't stifly will stand , and scorn to put coin that is false in your hand : while you 're there abiding , and on the ice gliding , let 'em say what they will , 't is but a back-sliding : but if ye shou'd prove , then say i am a prophet , tho' t is a slippery trick there shall come no more of it 10. there 's many more tricks , but too long to be told , which are not all new , tho' there 's none of 'em old there 's the fellow that printeth the old bailey trial who to all the dull printers does give a denyal ; he 'll print for a s●ce , ( for that is his price your name ( that you brag may 't was done ) on the ice . and faith i do think it a very fine thing , so my tale's at an end , but first , god save the king , toney's soliloquies . tune , the lamentation of a bad market . 1. when the plot i first invented , i was ravisht in conceit , to see its frame so well cemented , varnish'd over with deceit . it was an infant of my spirit , nay , the darling of my soul , if its contrivance be a merit , by jove the cooper did well boul. 2. for to give this engine motion , to arrive where it did tend , i fill'd the vulgar ears with ' notions , and gospel of my oaten friend ; i antedated all transactions , distinguisht stiles of new and old , in the state i made such fractions ; some i bought , and some i sold. 3. the mobile i so distemper'd , with the magick of my care , none but wou'd his soul have ventur'd where brave toney bore a share ;

and trusted others to that lock , which cost my buck and me so dear . 6. in fine , poor profligated wretch , for to indulge my minion spight , my seared conscience i did stretch , and did old rowley's guards indict i did espouse all wickedness , and only lov'd what 's purely evil ; in that alone was my excess ; then take thy own associate , devil . rejoyce in tryumph , or a plaudite on the ottamens defeat at vienna . tune , hark how the thundring connons roar . 1. i 'm glad to hear the cannons roar resounding from the german shoar , better news than heretofore , that babels beast is wounded ; the christians brave , both all and some charge with the horse and kettle-drum , the enemy of christendom , till ●urks are quite confounded . 2. the king of poland ( in a phraise ) the great grand-seigneur did amaze , and the noise his siege did raise , couragious solymannus ! ( if you resolve to come again ) you must recruit both might and main , or else it will be all in vain , to think that thy'l trepan us . 3. his christian majesty of france doth booty play , the germans dance , and he doth laugh at our mischance , himself he dare not venter ; but pimp the beast , and babels whore , and he ●o-peep stands at the door , while the wanton cannon roar , then hector-like he 'l enter . 4. but spite on turk , and great mogul , and pox upon the scarlet trull , and we poppie too dare pull , if charles be our commander ; for though he neutral seem to be , he can command both land and sea , and over-throw the big-look'd three , and trace brave alexander . 5. then let no rancor joyn'd with hate make ruptures in the church or state , but all submit to divine fate , and keep within our border ; let none old england then forsake , ( since crowns and kingdoms lye at stake ) if forreign war to undertake , till charles get further order . 6. the germans tall that heretofore , they captive took one bull and boar , the minotaurus of a whore , did roar like any thunder ; then p. p. how could this be the great gibralter of the sea ? whose army was to fight with thee and force the world to wonder . 7. but ottomon pray get you gone , we christians do but draw you on ; we 'l greater booty have , or none , and if you 'l not prevent it ; if ever you turn your face this way we 'l make the cannon musick play , and you shall dance the english hay , till all your bones lament it . 8. our royal james will make you know the sharpness of a york-shire ho , and prove by land , and sea your foe if charles command to do it ; both england , scotland , dutch and dane , and all his islands of the m●●h will not be able to refrain ; if he once say do it . 9 then fill the piss-pot to the swine , heap me a rousing glass of wine , the dancing thames shall pledge the rhine and tyber shall be praeses ; then here 's to charles that rules the main , to poland , holland , scot and dane , to germany , and brave lorrain ; but pray you po●us ne sis . cupid turn'd musqueteer . tune , which no body can deny . alas what 's is like to become of the plot now to●ey ●s dead , and titus is go● in so fair a prospect of going to pot ? which no body can deny . they say he has lately reviv'd an old trick , which he us'd as a med'cine when he was love sick , page , bayliff or bum to take in the nick , which no body can deny . now titus for one of his saints tutelars , had got a young fellow as brawny as mars , with a thousand invincible charms in his a — which no body can deny . a large pair of buttocks as ever was seen , with a delicate nut-brown hole between , and rascally cupid lay lurking within . which no body can deny . whence centinel-like with his gun in his hand , he spy'd out the doctor & charg'd him to stand , not doubting but he would obey his command which no body can deny . but he disobey'd ; which when cupid espy'd , he quickly presented : have-at-you he cry'd , and lodg'd him a bullet in his left side , which no body can deny , &c. 't is true he was arm'd ( as poets have told ) with only a bowe and a quiver of old , and arrows for love , which were headed with gold , which no &c. which still he does use , as h' has formerly done , when th' old way of loving he means to drive on but for this new way he makes use of a gun , which no , &c. the gun went off bounce , yet the dr. n'er started which was some effect of his being stout-hearted , for he only thought that the fellow had farted , which no body can deny . but quickly he found he had cause to repent it , for cupid had poison'd the shot●e●r he sent it , with somthing so strong , you might easily scent it . which no body can deny . this poison so basely debases loves fires , that the foulest of object ▪ ●he lover admires , and so it inclin'd the good doctor 's desires , which no body can deny . for he fell in love ( 't is a kind of a riddle ) immediately with this great fellows bumfiddle ; but chiefly he s●irkt at the slit in the middle , which no body can deny . quoth he in a rage , what a plague have you done ? your barrel is foul , i 'll lay twenty to one ; but i have a rammer will scour your gun , which no body can deny . nay , never refuse , but leave off your winking ; there 's no body near , & 't is just to my thinking , that i shou'd chastize you thus for your stinking which no body can deny . so down went the breeches , and he fell to work ; about him he laid , as he had been a turk : and so this great bus'ness was done with a jerk , which no body can deny . and truly the bus'ness was great in its kind ; for the fellow was very well scour'd behind , and the dr. was eas'd both in body and mind , which no body can deny . no protestent-plot ; or , the whigs loyalty with the doctor 's new discovery , 1. hells restless factious agents still plot on , and eighty three smells rank of forty one ;

fierce hannibal of france is at your gate , come rascals , mutiny e'er 't is too late : the spanish pilgrims once hir'd to cut your throats are landed now at milford haven , believe your saviour oats ; and the horrid popish army , that were hid under ground , are , i 'll take my oath , within a trumpets sound . 3. see there , a fighting army in the air ! but now it vanishes , and disappears ; a spectre told strange things to honest bess , which much amaz'd the hatfield prophetess ; i told 'em true at first , what black designs would be carry●d on against the king , and royal alban● , by the discontended whiggs ; but rebel tony since , made me contradict my former evidence . 4. i 've lost my swearing trade , now by this hand , must i be forc'd to starve , or leave the land● my injur'd prince has long since on me frown'd , for perjuries against his life and crown : i 'll follow rumbold , wade , nelthrop , walcot , hone , with that cruel blood-hound barton , who 've all fled the town ;

but cut-throat protestants may do any thing , and inform the roman catholicks how to murder kings ; they take it in great dudgeon to be equaliz'd yet their hellish crimes must pass for loyalty . 6. but thanks to heaven , who did curb their power , and has preserved us from that fatal hour : when villains were to massacre us all , and noll's successors to possess white-hall ;

who were to kill the king and duke and hang us for their murthers . no shamming , nor flamming , &c. 5. surprising the tower and court in an hour , and enter in at the traytors gate , but was not in their power . our guards now are doubled , e're long they will be trebled , the harmony of gun and drum , makes guilty conscience troubled . no shamming , nor flamming , &c. 6. if grey is retaken , the root o' th' plot is shaken , russel lately lost his head , the bleeding cause to waken . m — h in town still , with armstrong his council ▪ the lady g — y may find him out , under some smock or gown still . no shamming , nor flamming , &c. 7. give 'em no quarter , they aim at crown , and garter , they 're of that bloody regiment , that made their king a martyr . leave none to breed on , they 'd make us to bleed on ; they are the bloody'st caniballs that ever men did read on . no shamming , nor flamming , no ramming nor damming , no ignoramus jury's now , for whiggs , b●t onl● hanging . state and ambition , a new song at the dukes theatre . state and ambition alas will deceive ye , there 's no solid joy but the blessing of love , scorn does of pleasure fair silvia bereave ye , your fame is not perfect till that you remove : monarch's that sway the vast globe in their glory now love is their brightest jewel of power , poor strephon's heart was ordain'd to adore ye , ah ! then disdain his passion no more . 2. jove in his throne was the victim of beauty , his thunder laid by he from heaven came down shap'd like a swan , to fair leda paid duty , and priz'd her far more , than his heavenly crown she too was pleas'd with her beautiful lover , she strok'd his fair plumes and feasted her eye , and he too in loving knew well how to move her , by billing begins the business of joy. 3. since divine powers examples have given , if we do not follow their precepts we sin , sure 't will appear an affront to their heaven , if when the gates open we enter not in ; beauty my dearest was from the beginning , ordained to cool mans amorous rage , and she that against that decree will be sinning in spring , she will find the winter of age. 4. think on the pleasure while love 's in its glory , let not your scorn loves great altar disgrace , the time may come when no swain will adore ye or smooth the least wrinkle age lays on your face ; then hast to enjoyment whilst love is fresh blooming , and in thy height and vigour of day . each minute we lose , our pleasure 's consuming , and seven years to come , will not one past repay . 5. think my dear silvia , the heavenly blessing , of loving in youth , is the crown of our days , short are the hours where love is possessing ; but tedious the minuits when crost with delays love 's the soft anvil where nature's agreeing , all mankind are form'd , and by it they move , 't is thence my dear silvia and i have our being , the caesar and swain spring from almighty love. 6. i see my dear silvia at last has consented , that blush in your cheek does plainly appear , and nought but delay shall be ever repented , so faithful i 'll prove , and so true to my dear then hymen prepare , and light all thy torches , perfume thy head altar , and strew all the way , by little degrees love makes his approaches , but revels at night for the loss of the day . pluto , the prince of darkness , his entertainment of collonel algernoon sidney , upon his arrival at the infernal palace tune , hail to mirtle shade , pluto . room for great algernoon , you furies that stand in his ●ay ; let an officer to me come , who serv'd me every day , promoting sedition and evil , to alter the church and state , he deserves an imployment in hell , he has done great service of late . pluto . he 's one of the damn'd old crew , who voted the death of the king ; at oxford again he did sue to be at the self-same thing . all mischiefs on earth he devis'd , all hazards he also did run , to render my name solemniz'd with the rabble of london town . pluto . to monarchy he was a foe , religion he always disdain'd , ' gainst government and laws too , damn'd anarchy he maintain'd : i 'll give thee preferment here , since england has banisht thee thence , brave sidney thou need'st not fear , thou shalt have great recompence . shaftsbury . now monarchy has prevail'd , our fanatick plots to defeat , on whom is the cause entail'd ? who 'l stand it in spight of fate ? we that maintain'd it so long from justice were forced to flye ; if you then had come along , you needed not there to die . essex . the factious are quite undone , for loss of the fanatick peers : now shaftsbury and i are gone , poor oates has lost his ears ? for m — h our shams and intrigues to th' world has plainly declar'd , and h — d our solemn leagues , in the plot a long time prepar'd . russel . i 'm glad you are safe arriv'd , tho' i doubt you met jack by the way now m — h is reconcil'd , what a plague is become of gray ? rebellion could ne'r disallow conspiring against the prince , though i by a sham-dying vow did plead great innocence . the kings health , set to farrinel's grounds . in six parts , first strain . joy to great caesar , long life , love and pleasure ; 't is a health that divine is , fill the bowl high as mine is ; let none fear a feaver , but take it off thus boys ; let the king leave for ever , 't is no matter for us boys . second strain . try all the loyal , defy all , give denial ; sure none thinks his glass too big here , nor any prig here , or sneaking whig here , of cripple tony's crew , that now looks blew , his heart akes too , the tap wo'nt do , his zeal so true , and projects new , ill fate does now pursue . third strain . let tories guard the king , let whigs in halters swing ; let pilk and shute be sham'd , let bugg'ring oates be damn●d ; let cheating player be nick'd , the turn-coat scribe be kick'd ; let rebel city don 's never beget their sons ; let ev'ry whiggish peer that rapes a lady fair , and leaves his only dear the sheets to gnaw and tear , be punish'd out of hand , and forc'd to pawn his land t' attone the grand affair . fourth strain great charles , like jehovah , spares those would un-king him , and warms with his graces the vipers that sting him ; 'till crown'd with just anger the rebels he seizes : thus heaven can thunder when ever it pleases . jigg . then to the duke fill , fill up the glass , the son of our martyr , belov'd of the king ▪ envy'd and lov'd , yet bless'd from above , secur'd by an angel safe under his wing . sixth strain . faction and folly , and state melancholly , with ●ony in whigland for ever shall dwell ;

the famous sir john moore , lord mayor of london town , to your eternal praise , shall stand a subject of renown , amongst your famous worthies who have been most esteem'd ; for sir john , sir john , your honour hath redeem'd . sir john he 's for the kings right , which rebels would destroy . vive , vive , vive le roy. when with a hide-bound mayor the town was in distraction , sir john leapt in the chair , and cur'd the hall of faction : he to the people shew'd their duty and allegiance ; how to the sacred king and laws they pay their due obedience . sir george unto the people a loyal speech did give ; but sir john , sir john , your honour did retrieve . sir john is for allegiance , which rebels wou●d destroy . vive , vive , vive le roy. when thou wast lost , o london , in faction and sedition ; by whigs and zealots undone , while they were in commission ; when treason , like old nol's brigade , did gallop through the town , and loyalty , ( a tir'd jade , ) ●ad cast her rider down ; the famous sir george jeffereys your charter did maintain ; but sir john , sir john , restor'd your fame again . sir john is for the monarchy , which rebels wou'd destroy . vive , vive , vive le roy. when th' mayor , with sheriffs mounted , sad jalousies contriv'd , and all the town run after , as if the devil driv'd , then famous sir john moore thy loyalty restor'd , and noble sir george jefferys , who did thy acts record : sir george of all the heroes deserves the formost place ; but sir john , sir john , hath got the sword and mace. sir john he is for justice , which rebels wou'd destroy . vive , vive , vive le roy. sir patience would have the court submit unto the city ; whitehall stoop to the change , and is not that a pity ? sh. bethel ( save allegiance ) thinks nothing a transgression : sir tom rails at the lawful prince , sir bob at the ●uccession : while still the brave sir george does their fury interpose : but sir john , sir john maintains the royal cause . sir john is for his highness , whom rebels wou'd destroy . vive , vive , vive le roy. sir patience for a parliament , sh bethel a petition instead of an address , cram'd brimful of sedition . sir tom he he is for liberty , against prerogative : sir bob is for the subjects right , but will no justice give : and brave sir george does all their famous deeds record ; but sir john , sir john your loyalty restor'd . sir john he 's for the int'rest , which rebels would destroy , vive , vive , vive le roy. sir patience he calls for justice , and then the wretch will sham us . sh● bethel he packs a jury well vers'd in ignoramus : sir tom wou'd hang the tory , and let the whig go free : sir bob wou'd have a● commonwealth , and cry down monarchy . while still the brave sir george does all their deeds record ; but sir john , sir john your loyalty restor'd . sir john he is for justice , which rebels wou'd destroy . vive , vive , vive le roy. and may such loyal mayors as honest sheriffs find ; such sheriffs find a jury will to the king be kind ; and may the king live long , to rule such people here ; and may he such a lord mayor find , and sheriffs every year ; that traytors may receive the justice of the laws , while sir john , sir john maintains the royal cause . sir john is for the king still , whom rebels would destroy . vive , vive , vive le roy. the whig-intelligencer : or , sir samuel in the pound , for publishing scandalous and seditious letters , for which he was flu'd 10000 l. tune , hark! the thundring cannons roar . 1. hark ! the fatal day is come , fatal as the day of doom , for sir samuel there make room , so fam'd for ignoramus : he whose conscience cou'd allow such large favours you know how , if we do him justice now , the brethren will not blame us . 2. stand to the bar , and now advance , morden , kendrick , otes and prance ; but let the foreman lead the dance , the rest in course will follow ; tilden , kendrick , next shall come , and with him receive their doom , ten thousand pound , at which round sum the hall set up a halloo . brave sir barnard — on now , who no main would e'r allow to lose ten thousand at a throw , was pleas'd to all mens thinking : ten thousand pounds ! a dismal note , who before had giv●n his vote , not to give king a groat , to save the throne from sinking 4. but yet there 's a remedy , before the king shall get by me , i 'll quit my darling liberty ; nor will i give bail for 't : for e're the crown shall get a groat in opposition to my vote , i●ll give 'em leave to cut my throat altho' i lye in goal for 't . 5. were 't for mon — h , i 'de not grieve , o● brave russel to retrieve , or that sidney yet might live , twice told , i 'd not complain , sir : nay , what 's more , my whole estate , with my bodkins , spoons , and plate , so i might reduce the state to a commonwealth again , sir. 6. or that mon. were in grace , or sir sam. in jeffery's place , to spit his justice in the face , for acting law and reason , or that the torys went to pot , or we could prove it a sham plot , or essex did not cut his throat ; or plotting were not treason . 7. thus i 'd freely quit my coyn ; but with torys to combine , or keep the heir in the right line , that popery be in fashion , to see the holy cause run down , while mighty york is next the crown and perkin's forc'd to flye the town : oh vile abomination ! 8. sooner than ●bedience owe to their arbitrary law , or my bail in danger draw , for breach of good behaviour ; i with bethel , and the rest o' th' birds , in cage will make my nest , and keep my fine to plot and feast , till mon — be in favour . oates thrash'd in the compter , and sack'd-up in newgate . tune , hail to the myrtle shades ; &c. 1. hail to the prince of the plot , all hail to the knight of the post ; poor titus ! 't is now thy lot to pay for all the rost : from wine and six dishes a day is sure a deplorable fate , to fall to the basket , and pray for an alms through an iron-grate . 2. titus who once was a prince , now titus a captive in gaol ; titus who lov'd a wench , or any thing wore a tail ; titus who made a full pass at a following bum in the room , is clapt up himself by th' ar — , and cannot reverse his doom . 3. did titus swear true for the king , and is the good doctor forsworn ? did titus our freedom bring , and otes in newgate mourn ? was titus the light of the town , the saviour and guardian proclaim'd , and now the poor doctor thrown to a dungeon , in darkness damn'd ? 4. but now , to declare the cause , i 'll tell you as brief as i can , the doctor can't in the close prove titus an honest man : can titus be just to the king , from treason and treachery free , when the doctor hangs in a string , for plotting and perjury ? 5. for damage the doctor has done , poor titus is got in the pound , 'till the doctor produce the sum , full thirty thousand pound : if you knew on what damnable score such perilous words he brought forth , you 'd say his false tongue cost more than ever his head was worth . 6. the doctor an evidence against our great duke did come in ; nay , such was his insolence , to impeach our gracious queen : for which such indictments are brought , such actions of scandal crowd in , that titus could wish , t is thought , he were out of the doctor 's skin . 7. nay , further , while titus swore for the safety and life of the king , the doctor began to roar , and belch'd out his poyson'd sting : the doctor for titus may stretch , h' has so brought his bus'ness about , without the kind help of ketch it 's fear'd he will scarce get out : 8. through sixteen close key-holes , 't is plain , invisible titus did pass , and the doctor got back again , to catch a great don at mass : but now they are both in the trap , 't is a wager but jack in the fields , ( tho' titus may chance to ' scape , ) has the doctor fast by the heels . a new way to play an old game . tune , would you be a man of fashion , 1. have you heard of forty-one sir , when the cause did thrive amain ; tony's tap did freely run sir , tap did freely run sir , and confronted charles his wain ? when the commons thought it reason , and a meritorious thing , to use villany and treason , and made charles a glorious king. have you heard of eighty-three sir , when a deeper plot was lay'n , when the rascals did agree sir , rascals did agree sir ? to play o're the same again ? when to act their reformation , nought their fury would suffice ; but they needs must purge the nation , by a royal sacrifice . 3. have you seen those motly-martys , that did suffer for the cause , swinging in their tyburn garters , in their tyburn-garters , to attone their sacred laws ? if the blunderbuss ▪ shou'd miss sir , and shou'd fail to kill the king , there are other means should hit sir , and perform the glorious thing . 4. to his name a statue's due sir. higher than the monument , who this mighty deed shall do sir , mighty deed shall do sir , so great , so good , so excellent : future ages shall him crown sir , and shall bless the happy hour , and religion shall fall down sir , and adore her saviour . 5. thus the boasting bigots canted , ( big with hopes of common-weal ) thus the priestly villain ranted , priestly villain ranted , in a drunken sit of zeal : but their plots were all in vain sir , and their haughty rash career , signs and wonders make it plain sir , kings are heavens peculiar care. the loyal irish-mam . tune , irish trot , or fingaul jigg . 1. my bony dear shony , my crony , my honey why dost thou grumble and keep in thy words so ; sighing , and crying , and groaning , and frowning , ah why dost thou still lay thy hand on thy sword so ? what if the traytors will talk of state-matters , and rail at the king , without cause or reason : we 'll love on , and let business alone , for billing and kissing will ne'r be found treason , 2. plotting , and sotting , and railing , and fooling ; gods nowns , with the rable is now all the fashion : swearing and tearing , caballing and brawling ; by chriest and st. patrick will ruine the nation : he 's but a widgeon that talks of religion since rebels are now the reformers and teachers , sodom's disciple debauches the people , good heaven defend us from more of such preachers . 3. visions , seditions , and railing petitions , the rable receive , and are wondrous merry : all can remember the fifth of november , but no man the thirtieth of january : talking of treason without any reason , will lose the poor city it s bountiful charter : the commons haranging . will bring them to hanging , though each puppy hopes to be knight of the garter . 4. c — on and p — on papillion that villain , with cornish and ward are the monarchy hunters ;

and at the true successors feet pay all your just devotions . 3. let bully tom receive his doom , so long since due in reason ; for murders then , and now again for mutiny and treason : to kidnap cully , still has been his business of importance ; and now poor perkin has drawn in , and rook'd out of his fortunes . 4 in old laws we find , the cockold's kind to those that do cornute him ; or why should gray the traytor play , and to perkin be supporting ? but the co●comb fain would be a wittal to a king too ; that his bastards may again , rebel for some such thing too . 5. but of all fools , a pox on tools , that against all law and reason ; the cause maintain , without the gain or the profit of the treason : what from wit , or courage , hopes , that gaping cully brandon ; that does to mungrel perkin stoop , and the royal side abandon . 6. fat turnspit franck with wit so ranck , has some excuse for starting ; whom we despise , in time may rise , to be jester to king perkin : but for essex , s — d , gray and k — t , those fools of land and money ; why what the deel was their intent to set up rebel tony. 7. the polish prince has some pretence , to be whigland rabbles hector ; and with reas●n too may head the crew , and in time become protector : since ambition and revenge are motives very moving ; but a plague on fools that him do bring , to rogues must rule above him . 8. oh! ye tapland crew that treason brew , and of tony make an idol ; and perkin sham with king in name , the king of the golden medall . curse and damn the black-cabal , that inspir'd your rebel knowledge ; e're billa vera find you all the fate of pious colledge . the whigs downfall . tune , hey boys up go we . now , now the antichristian crew shall all go down , because our magistrates do well pursue , and execute the laws : those rascals who do always rail against all law with spight ; would make a law against the law , great york should loose his right . to perfect which , they made their choice of parliaments of late , of members that had nought but voice , and megrims in their pate : wi. williams he the speaker was , and is 't not wondrous strange ; the reasons plain , he told it was , because they would not change . he told you truth , nor think it strange ; he knew well their intent , they never meant themselves to change , but change the government : for now cry they the king 's so poor , he dares not with us part ; and therefore we most loyally will break his royal heart . the habeas corpus act is past , and so far we are safe ; he can't imprison us so fast , but strait we have relief : he can't deny us ought we ask , in so much need he stands ; and before that we do money give , we 'll tye up both his hands . the presidents of forty one , which were till forty eight ; now our presidents are grown , for why they had their weight : so weighty were they , they cut off our royal monarch's head ; the self same reason bids us now , to act the self same deed . and when we have a martyr made of another gracious king , then all the ●aiterous plots we 've laid , we to perfection bring : and to protect our wicked deeds , religion shall go down ; we●ll ●out out all the royal seed , pretenders to the ●ro●n . thus having monarchy destroy'd , we 'll govern by free-will ; the light of the spirit shall be our guide , then what man can do ill : religion is the surest cloak to hide our treachery ; the rabble we 'll confine to th' yoak pretending to set free. therefore my country men , trust not where religion 's the pretence ; for if you do , you 'll find a plot to destroy your innocence : for those who lead you to rebel , you 'll find i' th' close to be , pure instruments were sent from hell to foment treachery . the downfall of the good old cause . tune , hey boys up go we. now the bad old cause is tapt , and the vessel standeth stoop'd ; the cooper may starve for want of work , for the cask shall never be hoop●d : we will burn the association , the covenant , and vow ; the publick cheat of the nation , anthony , now , now , now . no fanatick shall bear the sway , in court , city , or town ; three good kingdoms to betray , and cry the right line down : let them cry , they love the king ; yet if they hate his brother , remember charles they murdered , and so they would the other . weavers and such like fellows in pulpit daily pret ; like the covenanters , against the church and state : yet they cry , they love the king ; but their business will discover , charles the first they murdered , and so they would the tother . where these fellows go to drink , in city or in town ; they villify the bishops , and they cry the stewarts down ; still they cry , they love the king , but their business i 'll discover ; charles the first they murdered , and so they would the tother . when the king wanted money , poor yangier to relieve ; they cryed down his revenue , not a penny they would give : still they cry'd , they love the king ▪ but their business i 'll discover ; charles the first they murdered , and so they would the tother . the noble marquess of worcester , and many such brave lord ; by the king-killing crew , they daily are abhor'd : and call'd evil councello●s , when the truth they did discover ; and charles the first they murdered , and so they would the tother . the papists they would kill the king ▪ but the fanaticks did ; their perjuries and treacheries are not to be parallel'd : let them cry , they love the king , their faults i will discover ; charles the first they murdered , and so they would the tother . charles the 2 d. stands on his guard , like a good politick king ; the fanaticks ought to be abhor'd , for all their flattering : let them cry , they love the king , their tricks i will discover ; charles the first they murdered , and so they will the tother . now let all good subjects be that bear a loyal heart ; stand fast for the king , and each man act his part : and to support his sovereign , religion and the laws , that formerly were establish'd , and down with the cursed cause . jack ke●ch's new song ; or , a warning to conspirators . tune , 1. i hang , and behead , until you be dead , o dire ! raw head , bloody bones , fling members and stones in the fire . 2. is 't not better be merry with claret and sherry ; 't is reason , then to have your soul let out at your poll , for treason ▪ 3. your brains for to puzle , like walcot and russel conspiring ; 't is better be swilling , then plund'ring , and killing , and firing 4. 't is better to save one's neck , and be brave , or be sotting ; then have a chop with a hatchet , or a halter to stretch it for plotting . 5. the drunk , and the brave , nor traytor , nor knave , can be ever their deaths he defyes , but at tilting , he dies or a feavor . 6. to be traytor proclaim'd , describ'd , and be nam'd , and money — this 't is , to be cullies , to the vilest of bullies old tony. 7 to be frighted each hour , with newgate , or tower , and trying . conviction , and sentence , at tyburn repentance and dying . 8 then leave plotting , and treason , to the void of all reason and sense ; your pardon , jack cries , 't is the whigs i advise , no offence . a song of the light of the nation turn'd into darkness . tune , called cavalilly-man . come all you caballers and parliament votes , that stickl'd for hanging & cutting of throats lament the misfortune of perjur'd otes . who first must be pillor'd , and after be hang'd . what devil suspected this , 5 years agon , when i was in hopes to hang up half the town , i swore against miler , and cursed the crown , but now must be pillor'd , and after be hang●d . i curs'd the bishops and hang'd up the priests , i swore my self doctor , yet never could preach , but a cant full of blaspemy's all i could reach , i first must be pillor'd , and after be hang'd . now otes is i' th' cupboard & manger with colt , the caldron may boyl me for fear i should molt , here i 've ne'r a bum for a wheel-barrow jolt , yet now must be pillor'd , and after be hang'd . my thousand commissions and spanish black-blls , invisible armies lodg'd upon hills , such old perjur'd nonsence my narrative fills , that i now must be pillor●d , and after be hang'd . my twelve pounds a week , i want to support ▪ for stinking i' ch' city and fouling the court , like the devil in dungeon , i 'm now hamper'd for t . a first must be pillor●d , and after be hang'd . they hang us in order the devil knows how , 'zounds all that e●e put ●ne paw to the plow , i ne'r fear'd the devil would fail me till now , that i first must be pillor'd , and after be hang'd . for calling the duke a papist and traytor , i often have call'd the king little better , i 'm fast by the heels like a beast in a fetter , i first must be pillor'd , and after be hang'd . i swore that the queen would poyson the king ▪ that wakeman had moneys the poyson to bring ▪ when i knew in my heart there was no such thing . i now must be pillor'd , and after be hang'd . i 'm resolv'd to be hang'd dead drunk like hugh peter , if i can but have my skin stuft with good liquor , then i shall limp to old tapskie much quicker . but i first must be pillor●d , and after be hang'd . a new sgng. to the tune of young jemmy . 1. 't was a foolish fancy jemmy , to put your trust in tony ; he dipt ye all in treason , then humbly dy'd in season ; when his spiggot dropt out , the plot came about ▪ far beyond your graces reason . 2. 't were fit you 'd mind these matters , and help your brother traytors ; you left your friends together , to shift for one another ; who you well all know , were in portingal-row with a lady and her mother . 3. when you went from jerman-street sir , your friends you went to meet sir ; poor betty was much griev'd sir , you could not be believ'd sir ; had she been in the way , you had carry'd the day ; but alas you were deceive'd sir. 4. franck n — t 's wondrous hearty . and argues for the party ; his parts are most inviting , and lately shin'd in writing ; and he hath in his face , as much wir as you 've grace ; which to say the truth is biting . 5. thus sir while you 're attended , your troubles will be ended ; keep franck still for your writer , and p — y for your fighter and to add to your sway , turn ● — r away , ●d make poor ha — t fright her . 6. 〈◊〉 for — s have a place too , ●bout your mighty grace too ;

a● he 's for his part , ●ore a rogue in his heart , t● gray or armstrong either . 8. may friends like these protect ye , and only these respect ye ; may halters , chains and fetters , crown all rebellious traytors ; then in a short space i 'll wait on your grace , with a list of all your creatures . oates's bug — bug — boarding-school , at camberwell . tune , lord russel's farewel . rowse , rowse my lazy mirmidons , and muster up our tribe ; see how the factious fancies stand , to trim or cross the tyde : invite 'em to my vaulting school , the saints for freedom tell ; how they may live without controul , with me at camberwell . there all provision shall be made to entertain the best , old mother creswel of our trade , for to rub down our guests ; three hundred of the briskest dames , in park or field e're fell : whose am●rous eyes shall charm the flames o' th' saints at camberwell . for my own spending i will keep of boys three hundred more , they are to my appetite , more sweet then bawd or bucksom whore : the turks seraglio we 'll revive , he sinks so fast for hell : our english turks may plot and thrive , with me at camberwell . that sacred place shall tempt his grace , once more from friends to fall : he 'll leave these new-fond sweets to trace both moor-park and whitehall ;

patience approach with pretended allegiance to his sov'reign lord , yet oppose the right heir can he pretend to be honest or loyal , nay though he late at westminster swore , and yet the next day will ( like perkin ) deny all , whate●r he said , or swore to before ? 3. let trenchard and hambden stir up a commotion , their plotting and voting will prosper no more ; now gallant jemmy commands on the ocean , and mighty charles keeps them in awe on the shoar . let lobb and ferguson preach up sedition at coffee house , conventicle , cabal , now jefferys is justice , and york in commission , their scandal and plots shall pay for 'em all . 4. jemmy the valiant , the champion royal , his own and the monarchs rivals withstood ; the bane and the terrour of all the disloyal , who spilt the late martyr's , and sought for his blood jemmy who quell'd the proud foe on the ocean , and reign'd the sole conqueror over the main to this brave heroe let 's all pay devotion , since he is englands admiral again . 5. york our great adm'ral , the oceans defender , the joy of his friends , & the dread of his foes , the lawful successor , what bastard-pretender ( whom heav'n the true heir has ordain'd ) dare ●ppose ? 〈◊〉 who taught the scotch rebels allegiance , and made the high dutch his standard to low'r , in time will reduce the proud cit to obedience , and make the false whig fall down and adore . 6. let bethel and hambden lie shopt for their treason , and for the new factions express their old zeal ; let false sir samuel rail on without reason , and ev'ry night dream of a new commonweal ; plotters be brought with their plots to confusion , while charles sways the shoar , and york the vast main . till all are confounded who sought the exclusion , then england will be old england again . 7. then to our monarch let 's quaff off a bumper , and next to our sov'reign , the prince of the flood ; the ax and the gibbet crown ev'ry rumper , who york in the lawful succession withstood . may rumbold , gray , armstrong , with sidney be sainted and titus●s long tongue , so often forsworn . may his short neck stretch for 't when oats is attainted . and wish with the world he had never been born . loyalty respected , and faction confounded . to a pleasant new tune . 1. let cannons roar from sea to shoar , ●nd trumpets sound triumphantly ;

he 's of the glorious martyr sprung , and bears the name of good king james . of albany , &c. 3. our princes and our nobles all do not our loyalty disgrace : nor no enormity at all nor bastardize the royal race , of albany , &c. 4. let hagar and her birth be gone , her bottle on her shoulder be ; for sarah said unto her son , he shall not be an heir with thee . an heir with thee , an heir with thee , he shall no be an heir with thee ; for sarah said unto her son , he shall be an heir with thee . 5. put all these fancies quite away , and press down that egyptian pride ;

that he came down and let a fart , and so march'd back with his dragoons , with his dragoons , with his dragoons , and so march'd back with his dragoons , that he came down and let a fart , and so march'd back with his dragoons . the whiggs disappointment upon their intended feast . tune , cook lawrel . 1. have you heard of a festival convent of late , compos'd of a pack of notorious dissenters , appointed by tickets in whigland to meet , to sign and to seal covenanted indentures . 2. the day was appoited , and all things prepar'd in order thereto , by the sages o' th' nation , and a reverend sermon was there to be heard , t'exhort 'em to th' oath of association . 3. all sorts of trades-men were bid to be there , the lords , abhorrers , and commoners too , but the cooper 'fore all was to take the chair , to set forth the matter as well he knew how . 4 the godly gown-man all chain'd and fur'd , two shrieves , & the deel knows what of the rable ; invited on purpose , and set on , and spurr'd , to make a confusion worse than old babel . 5. the chief of the feast was a fop and a mouth , buy'd up by the city cooper and player ; whose name they 'd extended from north to south by th' trick of a black-box to make him an heir . 6. for down into durham an envoy was sent , amongst the chief , the northern clergies , to find out a writing to that very intent : who had thirty good guineys to bear his charges . 7. the reverend titus was chaplain to th' feast , brim-full of plots with oaths to maintain them ; the deel could afford them no such guest , ' mongst all his damn'd crew to entertain them . 8. next in came janway , curtis , vile and care , with his packets of lies thrust under his a●m , then don danger●eldo more subtile by far , then poor mother cellier , that acted no harm , 9. all sorts of informers were bid to be there , and the damn'd ignoramus ●urors too , to participate of this festival cheer , by way of thanksgiving for what they did do . 10. some hundreds more were to be at the feast ; and all things thereunto were fitted , but in steps an order which forestall'd the guests , disbanding the cooks e're the meat was half spitted 11. tag , rag , and long-tail were all to come in , to sit at this king of polands table , the feast i conceive else was not worth a pin , without the consent of an insolent rable . 12. what pining and fretting , and fuming was there , when all the good creatures were laid aside , 't would make a saint both to stamp and stare , to see such a zealous assembly decry●d . 13. here now the nation was thus settled , and all things be brought to a better cue , here a new government was to be settled , and the deel knows what besides they would do 14. some think it was like to the oxford stroke , which was well , being given in season ▪ and some think they 're under a burthens●m yoak , ' cause they may not assemble for sedition 〈◊〉 treason 15. some hold it not prudently acted at all , to check an assembly of so great an intention , who study'd and aim'd at the tory's down-fall , in raising the whigs by a new invention . 16. some say they were nettled , and galled within , to see our great york embrac'd by the city , if that be the cause on 't we care not a pin , let them hang up each other , and so ends my dity . the west-country-man's song at a wedding . 1. uds hearty wounds , i 'se not to plowing , not i sir , because i hear there 's such brave doings hard by sir , thomas the minstrel , he 's gone twinkling before sir and they talk there will be two or three more sir who the rat can mind either byard or ball sir , or any thing at all sir , for thinking of drinking i' th' hall sir , e'gad not i , let master fret it and storm it , i am resolv'd , i 'm sure there can be no harm in 't who would lose the zight of the lasses & pages , and pretty little sue , so true when she ever engages e'gad not i , i 'd rather lose all my wages . 2. there 's my lord has got the curiourest daughter , look but on her , and she 'll make the chops on the water , this is the day the ladies are all about her , zome to veed her , zome to dress her , & clout her , ods bud , she 's grown the veatest , the neatest , the sweetest , the pretty'st little rogue , and all men do say the discreetest , there 's ne'r a girl that wears a head in the nation but must give place , since mrs. betty's creation , she 's zo good , zo witty , zo pretty to please ye ; zo charitably kind , zo courteous & loving & easie , that i 'se be bound to make a maid of my mother , if london town can e're send down such another 3. next my lady in all her gallant apparel , i 'ze not forget the thundring thumping barrel , there 's such drink , the strongest head can't bear it 't will make a vool of zack or whit-wine or claret and zuch plenty that 20 or 30 good vellows , may tipple off their cups until they lie down on their pillows ; then hit off thy vrock and don't stand scratching thy head so , for thither i 'll go , ods wunds because i've zed so the dyet of cowley . now by my love ; the greatest oath that is ; none loves you half so well as i , i do not ask your love for this , bu● for heaven's believe me , or i die ;

to furnish rooms , make fire in the halls for company that comes after . these are not like our plots of old , when evidence swore for silver and gold. there are no armies under ground , no sha● magazines that ne'r were found , no spanish pilgrims , and black-bills , but open profess'd traytors ; where perjury spares , the sword it kills , these are our saint-like satyrs . these are the blades , detected by laws , in contempt of justice decide it with blows these are the blood-hounds of our age , that brought our late monarch upon the stage , yet these more barbarous bruits of ours , would mu●ther both king and 's brother , and ●ay the guilt at innocent doors , and still continue the murther . from thence the sacrifice begins , to massacre others for their own sins : and this has been the plots support , first made in the city , then forc't on the court. but now the mysteries brought to light , true innocency is protection , surprising rebels dare not fight , their souls are imperfections . if they had butcher'd the royal line , to murther its friends they were to joyn , the like was never on record in the wide wilderness of the world ; to rob the kingdom of all that 's good , and none but rebels surviving , to lord it o're three nations in blood ; each to be an oliver striving . the saddle is now on the right ●orse , the whiggs must mount for tyburn in course . for these can be no false alarms , we have their confession the men and their arms , makes catch perceive his harvest is near he swears if his horse do not fail him , he 'll not take a thousand pound this year , for what his trade may avail him . on the throat-cutter of jack-a-napes-lane . tune , hang sorrow , cast away care . 1. there is an old story that 's much to the glory of one who was call'd sophyrus , whose fears may be read , though the man be dead , by any that are desirous . 2. this man had a nose ( as you may suppose ) in the middle of his face ; but he cut it off clear , like a brave cavalier , to get the king 's good grace . 3. the manner is known , so we 'll let that alone : yet by the way you must note , though he slashed his face in every place , he had a great care of his throat . 4. nor will any man dare this wight to compare with an heroe that i can name ; who , by cutting his throat , grew a man of great note , and purchas'd eternal fame . 5. sophyrus did well ; but he doth excel , if he be but right understood : for 't is a plain case as the nose on ones face , it was done for the peoples good . 6. the design was brave , the people to save by letting his own throat bleed ; but the fiend that repines at all good designs , did hinder it to succeed . 7. for his hand being up to spil the last drop of the peoples saving blood , he made him flinch at the other inch , and so prevented the good. 8. so he useth his throat for the people to vote ; yet some are so wicked , to hope this obliging knife ( though it then spar'd his life ) has markt a fair place for the rope . 9. now , whoever bears spleen to the king or the queen , or to james the duke of york , he shall have my vote for cutting his throat , provided he 'll perfect the work. the plotting-cards reviv'd ; or , the new game at forty-one . tune , i 'll tell thee , dick , &c. 1. come , cut again ; the game 's not done , though strangely yet the cards have run , as if they pack'd had been : most likely are to lose , and say they know not what 's next best to play , such shuffling ne'r was seen . 2. look well ( my masters ) to your hits , and have about you all your wits , for high the play does run ; three kingdoms now at stake do lie , and rooks all hocus-tricks do try , that ye may be undone . 3. on clubs and spades some wholly bett ▪ for they the most are like to get . whilst hearts in vain contest ; and diamonds too , ( unto their cost that have them ) sure are to be lost , the blackest cards are best . 4. god bless all kings and queens , though now the best coat-cards , ( the lord knows how ) at this prepostrous game , are like all to commanded be , and trumpt with all their royalty , by every knavish pam — 5. so hewson blind ( though he be dead ) alive was by blind fortune led , and still did winning go ; and ever since we find , that he sweeps all with his effigie , the great pamphilio . 6. nay , trays and duces , which were deem'd the basest cards , are now esteem'd prime ones , to win the day : so that , ( you see ) to gain the prize , poor kings and queens you must despise , and honours throw away . 7. thus the best cards are now the worst , and what was last is become first , no wonder now-a-days : the nation topsy turvey lies , and ( as 't were pleas'd with contraries ) at losing load'em plays . the second part. 1. this is like some utopian game , where servant-maids controll their dame , and kings are subjects made ; felons their judges do indict , and he a traytor is down-right who falsly is betray'd ! 2. a dunce who never took degrees , but such as lead to villainies , a doctor is most sound ; he who , to furnish his own wants , can seize gold-cross , or silver-saints , a justice is renown'd . 3. who horse to battle never led , but has with many horses fled out of his neighbours field , a captain is ; and with his word kills more than with his duller sword he ever made to yield . 4. a villain who can cheat his lord , gets chains of gold instead of cord , and is from prison freed : for him who says he murder'd has , a pardon both for that does pass , and all that e'r he did . 5. who for foul crimes and forgeries has worn the yoak of pillories , and has been whipt about ; if he but add new perjury , he wipes off past iniquity , and speaks truth without doubt . 6. he that had rather choose to die , than to redeem his life with lie , is th' only perjur'd r●gue : and they who damn themselves to live , sure signs of their probation give , for they 're the saints in vogue . 7. then play away , ( good countrey-man ) what hand 's the best is now most-plain , and boldly thou may'st stake : a pack of knaves together get , and never doubt to win the sett , for they the voll will make . a song upon information . tune , conventicles are grown so rief . 1. informing of late's a notable trade ; for he that his neighbour intends to invade , may pack him to tyburn , ( no more 's to be said ) such power hath information . be good , and be just , and fight for your king , or stand for your countreys honour , you 're sure by precise information to swing , such spells she hath got upon her . 2. to six hundred and sixty , from forty-one , she left not a bishop or clergy-man , but compell'd both church and state to run , by the strength of the non-conformist . the dean and chapter , scepter and crown , ( the lords and commons snarling ) by blest information came tumbling down , fair fruits of an over-long parling . 3. 't was this that summon'd the bodk●ns all , the th●mbles and spoons to the city-hall , when saint hugh to the babes of grace did call , to prop up the cause that was sinking : this made the cobler take the sword , the pedlar and the weaver ; by the pow'r of the spirit , and not by the word , made the tinker wear cloak and beaver . 4. 't is information from valadolid makes jesuits , fryars and monks to bleed , occapitates lords ; and what not ( indeed ) doth such damnable information ? it cities burns , and sticks not to boast , without any mincing or scruple , of forty thousand black-bills by the post , brought in with the devil's pupil . 5. this imp with her jealousies and fears puts all men together by the ears , strikes at religion , and kingdoms tears , by voting against the brother . this makes abhorrers , makes lords protest , they know not why , nor wherefore : this strikes at succession , but aims at the rest ; pray look about you therefore 6. this raiseth armies in the air , imagining more than you need have to fear ; keeps horse under-ground , and arms to tear the cities and towns in sunder . 't is this made the knight to newark run , with his fidus acates behind him ; who brought for the father one more like the son , the devil and zeal did so blind him . 7. it whips , it strips , it hangs , and draws ; it pillories also without any cause , by falsly informing the judges and laws , with a trick from salamanca ; this hurly-burlies all the town , makes smith and harris prattle ; who spare neither cassock , cloak , nor gown , in their paltry tittle-tatile . 8. 't is information affrights us all ; by information we rise and fall : without information there 's no plot at all ; and all is but information . that pickering stood in the park with a gun , and godfrey by berry was strangl'd ; 't was by information such stories begun , which the nation so much have entangl'd . a song on the popish plot , by a lady of quality . tune , packington's pound 1. since counterfeit ●lots have affected this age , being acted by fools , and contriv'd by the sage ; in city , nor suburbs , no man can be found , but frighted with fire-balls , their heads turn'd round . from pulpit to pot they talk'd of a plot , till their brains were inslav'd , & each man turn'd sot ; but let us to reason and justice repair , and this popish b●gbear will fly into air. 2 a politick states-man , of body unsound , who once in a tree , with the rabble set round , run monarchy down with fanatick rage , and preach'd up rebellion i' that credulous age ; he now is at work with the devil and turk , pretending a plot , under which he doth lurk , to humble the mitre , wh●le he squints at the crown , till fairly and squarely he pulls them down . 3. he had found out an instrument fit for the devil , whose mind had been train'd up to all that was evil ▪ his fortune sunk low , and detested by many , kick'd out at st. omers , not pity'd by any : some whisperers fix'd him upon this design , and with promis'd reward did him countermine ▪ though his tale was ill told , it serv'd to give fire ; despis'd by the wise , whilst fools did admire . 4. the next that appear'd , was a fool-hardy knave , who 'd ply'd the high-ways , and to vice was a slave ; being fed out of basket , in prison forlorn , no wonder that money should make him forsworn : he boldly dares swear what men tremble to hear , and learns a false lesson without any fear ; for when he is out , there 's one that 's in 's place relieves his invention , and quickens his pace . 5. in a countrey prison another was found , who had cheated his lord of one thousand pound ; he was freed from his fetters , to swear and inform , which very couragiously he did perform : to avoid future strife , he takes away life , to save poor protestants from popish knife : which only has edge to cut a rogue 's ears , for abusing the people with needless fears . 6. another starts up , and tells a false tale , which strait he revok'd , his courage frail : but , to fortifie one that needeth his aid , ( being tempted by money , which much doth persuade ) he swore he knew all that contrived the fall of one , who that day was seen near to white-hall ; where he by an officer's powerful breath more l●kely by far received his death . 7. a gown-man most grave , with fanatical form , with his scribling wit doth blow up this storm ; for moth-eaten records he worships the devil , being now lodg'd at court , he must become civil . he hunts all about , and makes a great rout , to find some o●d prophecy to help him out ; but his friend that was hous'd with him at foxhall , being joyn'd with his master , still strengthens 'em all ▪ 1. then comes a crack'd merchant , with his shallow brain , who first did lead up this stigmatiz'd train : he since is grown useless , his skill being small ; yet at a dead lift he 's still at their call : he has pester'd the press , in ridiculous dress , in this scribling age he could do no less : but to so little purpose as plainly appears , with pen he had as good sate picking his ears . 9. to end with a prayer , as now 't is my lot , confounded be plotters , with their popish plot : god bless and preserve our gracious good king , that he may ne'r feel the presbyters sting ; as they brought his father with rage to the block , so would they extirpate all the whole stock : but with their false plots i hope they will end at tyburn , where the rabble will surely attend . the whigs lamentable condition ; or , the loyallists resolution . to a pleasant new tune . 1. the deel assists the plotting whigs to carry on their damn'd intrigues , and does provide them new supplies , gin any faus and raskal dies ; up starts some bankrupt perjur'd loon , instructed by the polish prince , how to amuse th'unthinking toon , and make the bigots leese their sense . 2. this squinting and curmudgeon sits consulting with his whiggish chits , who treacherously with him combine to root out a● the royal line : but heaven , which has disclos'd their plots , confound their vain inventions , disperse the wretched hai●-brain'd sots , and cross their curs'd intentions . 3. whither d' ye hurry phaeton ? is 't not enough that he 's undone by your persideous treachery , the source of au his infamy ? but , to promote your wretched ends , ye make the lorden a stop-gap ; like croc●diles , ye fawning friends pretendedly mourn his mis-hap . 4. the bearn may see how he is feul'd , tea late may find that he is gull'd : wha● then shall pity his estate , that toil'd to be unfortunate ? he 's now a hardy rebel grown , and glories in base actions ; the silly lad gangs up and down , to make feuds and distractions . 5. wa● to'l the nations scabs and boils , ye that delight in civil broils , wha'd set us by the ears again , ye worriers of loyal men : ●'se mean the pert blew-apron fops , wha meddle with the state affair , leuk to'l your wives , and mind your shops , whig gold nor cornish shan't be may'r . 6. all aegypts plagues seize doctor t.o. who did design the overthrow of church and state : have we forgot 't was he contriv'd the popish plot ? can we forget our martyr'd prince , whose blood does loud for veng'ance ca●l ? shall we not stand in 's son's defence , ' gainst whigs , wha● wish for his doonfal ? 7. take courage , pull a● rebels down , obey the king , and guard his throne ; commit the rest to th' prudent care of our tribunes and geud l●ird may'r : as for our foes the rebel-rout , he timely curb'd the stubborn elves ; their villainy he has found out , and now they 're fit to hang themselves . the present state of england . tune , it was in the prime of cucumber time . jack presbyter's up , and hopes at one swoop to swallow king , bishops , and all●a : the mitre and crown must both tumble down , or the kingdom , he tells you , will fall●a . sure 't is a hard fate , that to prop up the state , we must pull down the state-religion : but the saints have a new one , more holy & true one , composed of fox and wigeon . an engine they 've got , call'd a damn'd popish plot , which will bring in a through-reformation ; which , tho 't be half fable , it mads the poor rable , and puts out of wits half the nation . thus their work 's quickly done for each mothers son that to church or to king is loyal , shall strait be indicted , or else be sore frighted to be brought to their f●ry tryal . t is no more but pretend he 's to pop'ry a friend the brethren cry loud , he 's a traytor ; and their evidences bring against him pretences , and all of a treas'●able nature . th' impeachers are such , so hon'rable and rich , that no bribe can to falshood invite 'em ; tho' they contradict themselves and ev'ry body else , a good lusty vo●e can right ' em . no matter for blood , their oaths shall stand good ▪ ●n despight of all circumstances : the city-cabals say they cannot swear false , and each pamphlet their honour enhances . who dares to deny but one single lie of the many they swear on their credit , must down on his knees , is rebuk'd , and pays fees , and must cry peccavi he did it . if any's so bold their tricks to unfold , or offers to prove them lyars , strait up steps another , and swears for rogue-brother , and flings the poor wretch in the bryars . thus villains bout ten , the worst scum of men , ( while the godly party maintain 'em all england do govern , and each such a sov'reign , the king must not speak again ' em . old noll and dad nick have taught 'em the trick to make plots , and then to reveal 'em : thus runs round the jig of politick whig , sure pardon , if they do not conceal ' em . then inspir'd they bring in for sad men of sin any one that is honest and loyal : but if pardon 's deny'd , all flock on fitz-side , to hector the mercy royal. thus most men for fears dare not for their ears but whig and his rout to second ; which if they refuse , they 're far worse than jews , and papists or traytors are reckon'd . and ev'ry poor ape who for changes does gape , and to be preferr'd by the party , to help good old cause wide stretches his ●aws , with loud lies to shew himself hearty . and those worthies three , care , vile & langley , do publish as fast as they make them : the being in print , signifies something in 't , and the rabble for gospel mistake them . mean while pendent laughs , and at byter scoffs , and at 's hot-headed zeal does flout-a ;

they come to direct a wise monarch to reign , ' stead of sweeping their shop , and cleaning of shoes . 9. this is the committee where grievance ●s scann'd , which remonstrates dangers that threat●n the state : good service is here by suspicion trepann'd , and allegiance is reckon'd malignancy strait . 10. here 's the synod of saints , that will sometimes refresh the failings of nature with means of their own ; they 'll preach you the mortification of flesh with eyes up to heav'n , and breeches let down . 11. these are the cabal of the covenantiers , that think they maintain the religion the best by pulling down churches and their overseers , and routing the defender of faith with the rest . 12. these are the remains of the levelling rump , that stink in the house , and fresh commons annoy ; and lest the right james shou'd be turn'd up trump , they cry out , a court card will their gaming destroy 13. that lumber of trumpery buzzing abou● ▪ are silly subscribers that come at first dash , to make up a large petitioning rout of link-boys , and all such true-protestant trash . 14. these there are the hucksters that treason retail , they 'll sell you a sheet with a penymorth in 't . that 's courantier care , that never will fail to scrible , while langley dares publish and print . 15. that 's the club of a pack of ingenious friends , that made charles a scotch-pedlar ●th raree show , and i hope that our monarch , to make 'em amends , will give them a yard of st. johnstons or two . the pot-companions ; or , drinking and smoaking preferr'd before caballing and plotting . tune , thus all the day long we 're frolick and gay . 1. come make a good toast , and stir up the fire , and fill the great tankard of what we admire : then bring in a paper of excellent fogoe , that we may perfume the whole house with the 〈◊〉 and here let us sit like honest brave fellows , that neither are tories nor whigs in an ale-house . and here let us sit , &c. 2. we 'll raise no disputes of the church nor the state , to waken the plot , which has slept out its date ; nor came we to treat of the cities great charter , but only to drink to the sons of the martyr : for better it is to be honestly sotting , than live to be hang'd for caballing and plotting . for better it is , &c. 3. since freedom or death is not in our power , what have we to do with the lords in the tower ? we 'll leave them to justice , let that take its course , and set ev'ry saddle upon the right horse ; though the witnesses fade , and the plot 's almost rotten , yet presbyter-jack will ne'r be forgotten . though the witnesses fade , &c. 4. we have nothing to do with the feuds of the nation , with old magna charta , nor the association ▪ let shaftsbury fancy himself to be crowning , or beg his quietus , and venture a drowning ; let black-coat swear on , and raise up his story : that 's nothing to us , let the saints have their glory . let black-coat swear on , &c. 5. though the spaniards were landed , which bedlow recounted , and all the commissions which coat gave were mounted ; and little don john did lead these brave fellows , the devil a foot would we stir from the ale house : when they have rais'd armies by praying and winking , 't is we that maintain them with smoaking and drinking ▪ when they have rais'd armies , &c. 6. then away to the king , let the tankard go round ; may the plots and the plotters each other confound : to his highness the duke , and the royal successors , and every member of loyal addressers ; to the honest lord mayor , and all other old christians ; but guard us , good lord , from these whining philistims . to the honest lord mayor , &c. the bully whig ; or , the poor whores lamentation for the apprehending sir thomas armstrong . tune , ah! cruel bloody fate ! &c. 1. ah ! cruel bloody tom ! what could'st thou hope for more , than to receive the doom of all thy crimes before ? for all thy bold conspiracies thy head must pay the score ; thy cheats and lies , thy box and dice , will serve thy turn no more . 2. ●ngrateful thankless wretch ! how could'st thou hope in vain ●out the reach of ketch ) thy treasons to maintain ? for murders long since done and past , thou pardons hast had store , and yet would'st still stab on , and kill , as if thou hop'dst for more . 3. yet tom , e'r he would starve , more blood resolv'd to'●e spilt ; thy flight did only serve to justifie thy guilt : while they whose harmless innocence submit to chains at home , are each day freed , while traytors bleed , and suffer in their room . 4. when whigs a plot did vote , what peer from justice fled ? in the fanatick plot tom durst not shew his head. now sacred justice rules above , the guiltless are set free , and the napper's napt , and clapper clapt , in his conspiracy . 5. like cain , thou hadst a mark of murder on thy brow ; remote , and in the dark , black guilt did still pursue ; nor england , holland france , or spain ; the traytor can defend ; he will be found in fetters bound , to pay for 't in the end . 6. tom might about the town have bully'd , huff'd and roar'd , by every venus known , been for a ma●s ador'd : by friendly pimping , and false dice , thou might'st have longer liv'd , hector'd and shamm'd , and swore and gam'd , hadst thou no plots contriv'd . 7 tom once was cock-a-hoop of all the huffs in town ; but now his pride must stoop , his courage is pull'd down : so long his spurs are grown , poor tom can neither fly nor fight ; ah cruel fate ! that at this rate the ' squire should foil the knight ! 8 ▪ but now no remedy , it being his just reward ; in his own trap , you see , the ●ygre is ensnar'd : so may all traytors fare , till all who for their guilt did fly , with bully tom by timely doom , like him , unpity'd die . the jealous ladies complaint . to an excellent new tune . 1. tell me no more , there must be something in 't ; think what you swore when first you did begin't , that n●n● but i could e●r your heart suffice ; and my eyes and my thighs , how your mind it did surprize : but now , you bitch , you look so leam , you damn'd confounded stinking quean , are all the words that i can gain for my great pain . 2. can you forget the ●oys you did delight in , and those great pleasures you us●d to spend the night in ? when with sweet raptures so close you did embrace ▪ and your love us'd to move in another pretty place ; but now you turn away your head , and there you lie as tho' you 're dead , and all the joys i had in bed are gone and fled . anagram and acrostick on the salamanca-sizer . ana titus oats , just a sot . gram . when adam proper names on beasts conferr'd , the salamanca-doctor was i' th' herd ; the midwife , she fore-saw 't wou'd prove a dunce , so gave him name and character at once : which but unfold , and joyn again with art , both sot and drunkard lurk in ev'ry part ; nor in his temper thus alone betray'd , 't is on his face in ruby signs display'd . well may we doubt the gospel of that plot , whose chiefest evidence is just a sot . an acrostick traytor to god , damn'd source of blasphemy , insect of hell , grand mass of perjury ; thorough-pac'd villain , second unto none , vnless to judas , ( if by him out-done ; ) satans black agent , hells monopoly of all that 's called sin and villainy ; a cursed parent of an hell-bred brood , teacher of lies , spiller of guiltless blood ;
