THE JACOBITES HUDIBRAS CONTAINING The Late KING'S DECLARATION IN TRAVESTY LONDON Printed for Abel Roper at the Mitre near Temple-Bar 1692. TO THE READER TO Triumph over Ruin and Misery is but an unmanly fort of Insult and in the Case of Princes possibly it may bear a vet harder Name And therefore this following piece of Burlesque will perhaps be liable to fall under some Censure on that Account We confess indeed that Charge at first glance may seem to lie against us had we not this Justification on our side viz. That the late King's Declaration the Subject of our grinning Meeter is a Piece so disingenuous to give it no severer an Epithite that the coursest Doggerel is a Style fit for it For not to mention any other notorious Weaknesses in it as being somewhat more pardonable the utter silence throughout it in the least Excuse or Apology for the Misgovernment through his whole Four Years Reign not so much as one shadow of the least Error acknowledg`d appears so hardned an Original of Popish Bigotry and Confidence that the coursest Treatment is the best it deserves From this Honest Vindication we have adventured to expose that sometimes High Jacobite but at present Faln Dagon in a little plain Railery as indeed the suitablest Dress for it For truly the whole Declaration if designed for that Great End viz. The Sweetening and Softening three Kingdoms into his Restoration certainly the Penmen and Compilers of it could never be in Earnest for considering how they have managed their Arguments that way the whole Piece take it quite through must undoubtedly be intended for a Jest As such therefore to use the old course Proverb Like to like quo ' the Devil to the Collier We have very pertinently Rigg'd it up in this Comical Travesty THE PREFACE JAMES R. AS late near Port of Grace de Havre By Providence Fore or Back-side Favor With our Old Irish Troops incamp'd Those thin-worn Under-souls new vamp'd By Aid of French Dragoons recruited The Famous Dear Apostles Booted Monsieur and Teague a loving Couplet Our ever faithful Dogs in Doublet Opening full mouth'd to Jacobite Whistle And link'd as close as Rose and Thistle We lay expecting Wind and Tide Cross Herring-pond to make a stride For the late Grand Descent Ding Dong No less than Thirty thousand strong All Loyal Hands for the Great Work Monsieur true Steel to James and Turk And Teague

Fry of Transport Shipping Well Mann'd and Rigg'd from Star to Larboard Waiting we lay in mouth of Harbor To pave and smooth our way before us And tune all sweetly into Chorus Wisely to cheer our Subjects Loyal We publish'd Declaration Royal Their puling Stomachs to prepare For their expected Bill of Fare This Learned Piece Penn'd let me tell ye By Reverend Bishops Ellis E. y To their Immortal Zeal's Applause Joynt Brother Champions of our Cause For Jacobite Conveyance printed And for our Royal Standard minted But to our Grief of Heart be 't spoken Our Wind-bound Cause and Measures broken Our Great Intrigues alas unravel'd And all our Councils stuck and gravel'd For mighty Hopes too oft fall short all And Great Designs are things but Mortal We hear some Miscreants Male-contented Have our great Edict mis-presented Traduc'd our high Imperial Scribble With the hard Names of Dull and Feeble Fill'd up with Quibble Crack and Flaw As weak as Heretick Cobw●b Law Our Declaration call'd by some Sow'r Meat by others Sugar-Plumb Nay some whose Tongues we wish Besh n Stick not to say 't was only written To tickle Trout and Bait for Gudgeon And all to soften Popish Dudgeon In fi●e a Hocus Pocus Tool What not all turn'd to Ridicule But to unmask the whole Delusion Both for our Justice their Confusion Since so many Clod-pates God knows Can make no Sense of it in Prose We have thought fit for more effectual Enlightning British Intellectual To troll the glibber and the sweeter To have it soften'd into Meeter Resolved to try if it can chime More Sense and Reason tagg'd with Rhime Besides sublimer Charmes invite us To choose this Glorious way to right us As Poetry's exalted Quality T'Heroick Fame gives Immortality Our Declaration to rehearse In lofty Monumental Verse How can we fill a
