ENGLAND's Joyful Welcome TO THE KING Upon His Return to White-Hall on the 16th of December 1688. after his withdrawing himself and 6 Days Absence Or The Loyal Subjects Delight To the Tune of Why are my Eyes flowing c. NOw now let 's Rejoyce and let England be glad Since that we do hope there 's no cause to be sad The King to his People return'd is again And may he live happy and prosperously Reign Kind Heaven contriv'd it no doubt for our Peace That all our Contentions for ever may cease That Flatterers from his true Friends may be known And those he esteem'd that supported the Crown What joy did surprize us when first we had News The King to come back to us did not refuse Ay each Loyal heart beat a March to 's return Whose surprizing absence they often did Mourn Long long may he Live each good Protestant Sing Tho' all Evil Counsellors mount in a String The Roads as he passed all Crowded they were And each one did strive to Great James to get near To Welcome him home to his Pallace of State And pity the Hardship he sustain'd of late Vpon his Retirement and with loud Huzza's Still Welcom'd our Monarch where e're he did pass With Royal Attendance he made his Advance On purpose the Crowds met and not as by chance Each glad was to see him returning again And cou'd not from loud Acclamations refrain But most of all London that Renowned City At once shew'd her Gladness and likewise her Pity For no sooner Fame brought the News to her Gates But joyful Expectants had filled the Streets And as the Coach-Royal pass'd with loud Acclaim Mingl'd with Sighs they did Welcome the same By one they their Joy for his safety express By to'ther their Sorrow for his late Distress The Bells too they cou'd not this good News conceal But Welcom'd him in with a Merry Appeal To Mournful White-Hall he did scarcely appear But Sadness flew thence that had sat brooding there The Gates so late clos'd to our Monarch gave place While he restor'd joy to each sorrowful face And thither the Nobles resorted amain To fill up the Room of his scattered Train With true Loyal hearts for to Welcome him home So may our Divisions to Settlement come Our Troubles all cease and the Nation be freed Of those that wou'd Discord amongst us still breed Whilst the King and People in Love they do meet And right understanding does make him more Great That we as a Providence ever may own The Discov'ry that caus'd his return to the Throne The Prospect of War that did dreadful appear We now are in hopes there 's no cause for to fear But that without Blood-shed things may be secure And we with Priests Councils be troubl'd no more So Law and Religion may flourish amain And Plenty and Peace grow up under his Reign Our Swords into Plow-shears to Pruning-hooks Spears We wish may be turn'd and still banish our Fears But this to a Parliament we must submit And wish the great Nations Wise Council may Sit So to heal all our Grievances that none Complain But Protestants all may assured remain Of what by Vnbyas'd Men shall be thought Iust In Religion Law Property ne'r to be Cross'd And now to conclude let us heartily Sing Blest Heaven be thank'd for th' Return of the King.
