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 But a pox take all those That promoted Petitions To Poyson the Nation And stir up Seditions Here 's a Health to the Queen And her Ladies of Honour And a pox take all those that put Sham plots upon her Here 's a Health to the Duke And the Senate of Scotland And to all honest Men That from Bishops ne're got-Land 4 Here 's a Health to L'estrange And the boon Heraclitus And true Tory Thompson Who never did slight us And forgetting Broom Paulin And Alderman Wrightus With Tony and Bethel Ignoramus and Titus Here 's a Health to the Church And all those that are for it Confusion to Zealots And Whigs that abhor it May it ever be safe From the new mode Refiners And may Justice be done Upon Coopers and Joyners 5.

For they talk of horrid Popish Plots and Heav'n knows what When au the wiser World knows well what they 'd be at 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 â—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.

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.

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.

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.

London London Where 's thy Justice now 2. Smite smite the Snakes Did first their Sting reveal Stabbing thy Royal Brother in the Heel 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!

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 â—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-Coopâ—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 gusâ—'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 maintainâ—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 O brave Boys the Rabble did rore Tantivies and Tories shall Hector no more By Vs they 're out-acted to Vs they shall bend Whilst we to our Dignities freely ascend Then they were dead-drunk as the Devil cou'd make ' em And fell fast asleep as ten Drums could not wake ' em In the Piss and the Spew the poor Cooper did paddle To stop up his Tap but the Knave was not able For his Limbs like a Tortoise did shrivle crease Down drops the Wine-Cooper with the other Beasts And there the whole Litter as yet doth abide At the Sign of the Butt with the Tap in his side A Song upon the King Poland and the Prince o' the Land of Promise Tune Hold fast thy Crown and Scepter Charles 1. Prince O Poland Monster of our Isle Corruption of our Age Which on my Infant Hours didst smile 'Till thou inflam'dst the Rage Of my Ambitious Soul to sore Above its defil'd Sphear And Icarus-like I now must low'r Transform'd into Despair 2. Now all my Trophies of Success Are in Oblivion drown'd And none for Me dare now Address Where I hopâ—d to be Crown'd I by thy false blind Plots am sham'd Fool'd from a Glorious sway Snatch'd from a Father's Arms and Damn'd Like all that Disobey 3.

A Noble Peer He was And of Notorious Fame But now He 's gone alas A Pilgrim o're the Main The Prop and Pillar of our hope The Patron of our cause The Scorn and Hate Of Church and State The Urchin of the Laws 3. Of matchless Policy Was this Renowned Peer The bane of Monarchy The Peoples Hope and Fear The Joy of all True Protestants The Tories Scorn and Dread But now He 's gone Who curst the Throne Alas 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 forgâ—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 Dagonâ—s Fall From Justice forcâ—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.

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 why art so blind 2. Patience the joy of the Town The comfort and hope of the Crowd Patience who got renown By Perjury Lies and Fraud Patience who ne'r had the Heart His Sovereign's Rights to maintain But Patience he had the Art To Swear and Forswear again 3. Patience for Church and for State And Patience for Meetings by stealth Patience who wou'd translate The State to a Commonwealth Whose Zeal has his Patience betray'd To lie for the Saints in distress Nay tho' heâ—s Forsworn 't is said He Swore he could do no less 4. Patience whose Zeal did contrive The Monument Figures and Spire That while there 's a Papist alive We may not forget the Fire The Pillory now is his Lot He has raisâ—d such a flame with his Crew That London is now too hot Oh Patience where art thou now 5. Patience for Zeal to the Cause Did preach to the Captives in Goal Patience with great applause Gave large to an Hospital To Vse now his Money may lend For Pomfret he 'l never more stand Nor Warrants for Thompson send T'please Titus o' th' Perjur'd Band. 6. Patience with Coller of Brass To woful Disasters did fall Patience with Copper Face And a Conscience worse than all To Holland to Holland he goes For plainly now it appears That in spight of all Whiggish Laws Ignoramus can't save his Ears 7. Some say that the Saints may not Swear But Lie ev'n as much as they can Yet Patience in spight on 's Ears Will Swear and Forswear again That Patience should be so far lost Alas who with Patience can hear That a Saint should be Knight o' th' Post And an Elder without an Ear. 8.

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.

Tho' Sir Henry be departed Sir John makes good the place now And to help out the work Of the Glorious Kirk Our Brethren march apace too Then away c. While Divines and States men wrangle Let the Rump-ridden Nation bite on 't There are none but we That are sure to go free For the Souldies's still in the right on 't Then away c. If our Masters w'ont supply us With Money Food and Clothing Let the State look to 't We 'll find one that will do 't Let him Live we 'll not damn for nothing Then away with the Laws And the Good old Cause N'er talk o' the Rump or the Charter 'T is the Cash does the feat All the rest 's but a Cheat Without That there 's no Faith nor Quarter Oates well Thrash'd being a Dialogue between a Country Farmer and his man Jack Tune Which no body can deny Repeat the burden twice Jack OUr Oates last week not worth a Groat Have Sir which all do wonder at Abomination thriv'd of late Which no Body can deny Sir Master Be all the Tribe of Oates Accurs'd And the Old Dotard too that first The Brat within his Hedges nurst And
themselves and ev'ry body else A good lusty Voâ—e can right ' em No matter for blood their Oaths shall stand good â—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 â—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 The Coxcomb to see thus shaking the Tree While he 's ready to gather the Fruit-a Let Papists be hang'd and Presbyters damn'd And may goggle-ey'd Traytors perish But let true hearts sing Long live Charles our King The Church and the State to cherish Raree Show Or The True-Protestant-Procession Tune The Northumberland-man 1. THis is the Cabal of some Prot. Lords A forging the turn that not long since they had Here W ton sitteth and searcheth Records To find flaws in good Statutes and varnish the bad 2. This is the Lord Toney that slily sits here Who to sham and contrive has never deny'd And rather than th' Cause shou'd fall thro' his fear He 'll let out Rebellion by broaching his side 3. This is popular Perkin that smirks looks gay The women extoll the Spark up to the Sky None danceth with so great a grace as they say Yet somebody thinks that he capers too high 4. Here flourishing E the Tongue o' th' Gang With Rhetorical Artifice fancies fine things First vainly composeth a taking Harangue Then fosters a Villain in Libelling Kings 5. Here 's Doctor Informant that ne'r wou'd stick out To traffique in Oaths or tell a State-lie Observe how he firks all the Jesuits about First blaws on a Beuk and so Papists God b'we ye 6. Here 's Wilmore that 's troubl'd with scruples and stings His Citizens Conscience is nice and demure A Traytor 's indicted for Treas'nable things But he tells you 'tis false he 's a Protestant sure 7. These are some sage Citizens that you see there Who out of their Zeal all our Rights to maintain And to keep out all Slav'ry have taken a care To put up in the Streets two Posts and a Chain 8. These are some Apprentices still do retain Some Tenets their Masters approve and allow 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 â—s scann'd Which remonstrates dangers that threatâ—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 abouâ— 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 â—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.

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.
