Arms and the Man they sing no French fineness But hearty Blows and Brandenburg Address Hence Vigor and our Figure come agen VVe rise and walk all true erected men The force of those Circaean Caps subdu'd And the wild Charms our new Armida brew'd The witchcraft he our true Rinaldo broke And grubs the base pretenders to his stock But oh what Spirit of Deceit afar Possess'd our Pulpits and bewitch'd the Bar What Bane what Mischief on poor Mortals shed By Vermin from the Laws corruption bred Tho to their Irish Roof no Cobwebs cleave Below what strife and endless toyls they weave Wanting brave strength to strangle men to death What Frauds they hide What Venom underneath And when some shorter course to Murder 's shown Cry O that luscious Point they gain'd the Crown Sons of the Pulpit the same measures keep And of that same stumm'd Cup have drank as deep Agog for some odd transubstantiate thing Chimera reign and Metaphysick King Sublim'd to School Divinity extreams Their Brains would crow with Patriarchal Dreams So high from solid honest wisdom blown They'd have some Hippo Centaur on the Throne Not Law ordain'd but by some God appointed Not Lay-elected but by Priest-anointed Away this Goblin Witchcraft Priestcraft-Prince Give us a King divine by Law and Sense Now Bar and Pulpit to Dragoons a sport Their Cause is carried to the last Resort Princes in more compendious method teach Force is their way let old Apostles preach What 's stablish'd Law where standing Armies come Or who'll talk Gospel to a Kettle-Drum When God would hear where Giants did oppress The several Nations had their Hercules So were the Horns of grizly violence broke So People freed from tripple Geryons yoke The various Snake in Lerna Lough that bred That loll'd and hiss'd to death at every head Nemaean Lion Erymanthian Boar In Bogs that wallow and on Hills that roar All by his Godlike Prowess done away Their lawless rule and that Gigantick sway In vain whilst this high Vertue Nations sought The Nassau-House were never yet without Nor is confin'd to Provinces their care Their generous labour neighboring Kingdoms share Here the foul Herd flee from his lifted hand That long had made a Stable of the Land. The Monster of the Lough new Lerna-Plague But scarce in head the Bog-begotten Teague The ravenous kind the Harpyes sharp for prey With Birds obscene and uncouth to the day No Den no Ditch no rousting for 'em more Now now is come our Hercules ashore Vile Fraud dispell'd and superstitious Mists He from our Temple drives all knavish Priests Then warmer Wallop in due Scarlet shown To Coffee Dick bequeaths his rusty Gown Oh Dryden if this Hercules were thine How wou'd his Club and Atlas shoulders shine How wou'dst thou all our Maids of Honor fright With naughty Tale of Fifty in a night Howe'er no more let Xaviex mar thy Pen No Miracle to Forty thousand Men. When Law and bald Divinity begins Why then the marvel that a Poet sins DIALOGUE M.

The Priest at th' Altar bows to me When I appear he bends the knee His Eyes are on my Beauties fixt His Pray'rs to Heav'n and Me are mixt Consusedly he tells his Beads Is out both when he prays and reads I travel'd farther for your Love Than Sheba's Queen I 'll fairly prove She from the South 't is said did rome And I as far from East did come But here the diff'rence does arise Though equally we sought the Prize What that great Queen desir'd she gain'd But I soon found your Treasury drain'd Your Veins corrupted in your Youth 'T is said Experience tells this Truth Though I had caution long before Of that which I too late deplore J. Pray Madam let me silence break As I have you now hear me speak These stories sure must please you well You 're apt so often them to tell But if you 'll smooth your brow a while And turn that Pout into a Smile I doubt not but to make 't appear That you the great'st Agressor are I took you with an empty Purse Which was to me no trivial Curse No dowry could your Parents give They'd but a Competence to live When you appear'd your charming Eyes As you relate did me surprize With Wonder not with Admiration Astonishment but no Temptation Nor did I see in all your frame Ought could create an amorous flame Or raise the least Desire in me Save only for Variety I paid such service as was due Worthy my self and worthy you Caress'd you far above the rate Both of your Birth and your Estate When soon I found your haughty mind Was unto Sov'reignty inclin'd And first you practis'd over me The heavy Yoke of Tyranny While I your Property was made And you not I was still obey'd Nor durst I call my Soul my own You manag'd me as if I 'd none I took such measures as you gave All day your Fool all night your Slave Nor was Ambition bounded here You still resolv'd your course to steer All that oppose you you remove 'T was much you 'd own the Powers above Now several Stratagems you try And I 'm in all forc'd to comply To Mother Church you take recourse She tells you ' tmust be done by force And you impatient of delay Contrive and execute the way When mounted to the place you sought It no Contentment with it brought One Tree within your Prospect stood Fairest and tallest of the Wood Which to your Prospect gave offence And it must be remov'd from thence In this you also are obey'd While all the Fault on me is laid Now you was quiet for a while As flattering Weather seems to smile 'Till buzzing Beetles of the Night Had found fresh matter for your spite And set to work your busie Brain Which took Fire quickly from their Train Some wise some valiant you remove ' Cause they your Maxims don't approve And in their stead such Creatures place Which to th Employments brings Disgrace While whatsoe'er you do I own And still the dirt on me is thrown Strait new Chimera's fill your Brain The humming Beetles buz again A Goal-Delivery now must be All tender Consciences set free Not out of Zeal but pure Design To make Dissenters with us joyn To pull down Test and Penal Laws The Bulwark of the Hereticks Cause The sly Dissenters laugh the while They see where lurks the Serpents guile And rather than with us comply VVill on our Enemies rely The Chieftains of the Protestant Cause VVe did confine though ' gainst the Laws But soon was glad to
