S. Britains Triumph 1. AWake my Muse let thy dull spirits be rais'd Shake off thy former drowsinesse from sleep Rouse up thy heavy soul let him be prais'd Who from Destructions pit out of the deep Of troubles hath these Nations three redeem'd When to all mortall eyes they helpless seem'd 2. Like to a Ship in storm three Kingdomes lay Upon Afflictions rageing Billowes tost The Pilot o're board thrown O dismal day The Rudder of our Government quite lost Our Sun of happinesse had hid his head And darknesse our Horizon overspread 3. The Birds of darknesse every where appear'd With frightfull shrieks which fluttered to and fro Goblins and Elves in every place were heard Hagges and Infernall Furies here below Had made their Mansion and resolv'd to dwell Thus England seem'd the Suburbs of Black Hell 4. After a long Night loe our Sun appears Dispelling Mist and Fogges with his bright beams His heat and light one warmth th' other chears Our frozen drooping spirits so that streams Of Joy now wash away the tears of grief From him our woes all finde their full relief 5. Charles glorious Name but glorious more by farre Of it the Subject our Dread Soveraign Son of Great Charles who now a sparkling Starre In Heaven shines his Son long may he reign Our Sun on Earth let him excell in glory His famous Father matchlesse in any story 6. Rest Sacred Royall Dust sleeping in hope Thy Martyr'd Body Christs appearing waits While thy thrice blessed Soul with Eyes wide ope Beholds his glory thus those dismal Fates Which snatcht thee from us did but only lead Thy spotlesse Bridelike sp'rit to Christ her Head 7. And thou the Son of an unpattern'd Sire Who giv'st us hopes that him thou wilt excell Long mayst thou live thy Subjects chief desire In pride of whom England shall shortly swell And bid defiance to her proudest Foes Charles thou alone her bleeding wounds could'st close 8. Skilfull Physician who with Soveraign Balme Three Kingdomes almost wounded to the death Didst know to cure who so great a Calme After so fierce a Tempest with thy breath Thy Princely breath to this toss'd Ship could'st bring Which owns no Pilot but her lawfull King 9. I' th Month of May most pleasant of the Spring When Nature seemeth in her greatest pride Latona deckt with Flowers Birds which sing Sweetly upon each bow i' th Woods are spy'd Two dayes before its Exit did appear A Noon-day Starre in Englands Hemisphere 10. That day O happy day behold a Sonne To Charles our King then happy King was born Three Nations joy and pride what was not done His Princely pomp when Christned to adorn He as his Fathers Heir his Royall Name Inherits first and best it him became 11. Charles Son of Charles thus enters Englands Stage Whose birth his Saviour like a Starre did show An Omen that he first should feel the rage Of Persecutors and should glorious grow By suffering first this was our Princes Fate Whom Hells Afflictions led to Heavens Gate 12. Ten years and scarce six Moneths this Royall Bud Had grown upon the Sacred Princely Stock When sad divisions like a fearfull floud Did threaten Majesty against which Rock So many swelling waves and billowes beat That overturn'd at last the Royall Seat 13. His and his Countreys Father by the streame Carryed with violence into the Deep This Infant Prince beholds poor soul a Theame Too sad to think on thinking makes him weep And ev'ry object doth augment his grief Pit●'d by some yet findes of none relief 14. Thus lives our Soveraign Lord whom sorrowes School For twice ten years had pious wisdome taught While Villanous Usurpers think to rule His Kingdomes by an Iron Rod which brought The milder Scepter into due esteem When Saints in Title Reall Monsters seem 15. Then all men loath Usurped Tyranny Wish for their Kings Return in safety home Repent their long expressed cruelty Toward so sweet a Prince whom only some Out of a guilty feare kept in Exile Oppressing all his Loyall Friends the while 16. The same Moneth which the joyfull newes did bring Before it s Exit of this Princes birth Now enters with the Tydings of our King Tydings most full of Joy and reall Mirth When thrice ten years over his head had past Our King before our King is own'd at last 17. Ring out proud Bells let these our Joyes resound In every Steeple through this gratefull Isle The Ecchoe's from all Countyes let rebound Back to this Joyfull City and the while Quite tyred Phoebus in the Ocean hides His weary beams let Bonfires be our Guides 18. Thus we the darknesse of the Night will turn To artificiall day-light and each street For want of Fuel shall their Sign-posts burn The painted Lamb and Wolf in flames shall greet Each other proud thus to expresse their Joy That Charles shall come whom fiends sought to destroy 19. And now the day approaches which did see Our Charles at one view both a Man and Prince A Prince not greater by descent then he Equalls his birth by merit who long since Compell'd his Foes his Valour for to own And yet as mercifull as stout is known 20. Charles that the World may know how neer he comes Unto his Saviours pattern thirty years Passeth more silently Trumpets and Drums Sometimes awake his Courage and the fears Of his aspiring Enemies who still Seem for to prosper and
