The New Catholick Ballad To the Tune of Chivy-chace GOOD People all to me give ear And mark my Story well For such sad things were never heard As I to you shall tell The Catholicks in England have Of late so standered been And Slaughtered too that I believe The like was never seen For they are standered with the truth Of which the world doth ring And have been justly slaughtered too A sad and dismal thing You know their Ancestors did plot To kill Elizabeth And blow up James and by their means Good Charles was put to death But if they should deny that they This Murther did contrive If I don't prove it then let them Me of my life deprive For the Queen Mother's Confessour Aposlate Gough by name One of the Rebels Troopers was To Papists no small shame And when the fatal stroke was struck Aloud he JUSTICE cry'd And then with his drawn Sword amongst The People he did ride Du Moulin's Book this Murther too Doth on the Papists charge And faith if they dare question him He 'll prove it more at large Nor since our Gracious King's return Have Papists idle been But in their Father's steps have trod And shew'd their malice keen For they these one and twenty years Against him have conspir'd And all true English Protestants And London they have fir'd But he that faith there was no Plot Nor is can be no friend To truth or King or Parliaments What ere he may pretend Nay he 's a Traytor and I will Shew you the Reason why Because he doth in down right terms Give to the King the Lye And likewise to four Parliaments To Judges Truth and Laws Which shews the loyalty of such As plead the Romish Cause For divers Proclamations A●d Speeches of the King Bo●● Houses Votes and Judges sense Have clearly prov'd the thing Yet still they are so impudent As by their Trayterous Tools To justifie their innocence When ere they meet with Fools But they at last have fool'd themselves And their own Plot betray'd And so are taken in the Snare Which they for us had laid For they on Protestants have forg'd Such pittiful Sham-Plots That they have prov'd their own thereby And Shew'd themselves meer Sots So that the simplest Protestants Do now most plainly see That Papists Traitours Murderers And perjur'd Villains be But wonder not to hear or read Their wicked treacherous tricks For they are taught they should not keep Their Faith with Hereticks Nay that the greatest sins against Divine and Humane Laws Are none but meritorious acts If done t' advance their Cause Hence we may learn what to expect From such false bloody Knaves If they prevail we must be slain Or Beggars live and Slaves Therefore good Lord preserve our King And grant him long to Reign That into England Popery May ne're be brought again FINIS LONDON Printed for E. Rydal 1681.
