'cause they all foresee The dolefull State of Englands miserie By this accurs'd Rebellion The whole Nation With speed now Posting unto desolation If thou good Subject bee'st remove those fears That make the Land powre out such bleeding tears 'T is more then time this fearfull storm to cease And nothing can ●ffect it but a Peace A happy Peace will both Ecclipses clear And Sunne and Moon in glory shall appear Each brightly shining in their proper spheare And then they will a glorious Peace uprear When Cynthia as a Servant unto Sol With one consent a happy union shall Twixt King and Subjects make and clouds disperse That be or shall be to our Peace averse This to effect Sir William reach thy hand And for thy King with resolution stand For Peace for Peace our Gracious King doth call Peace is that precious Pearl will please us all T is that will make both Church and State to flourish Blest be each Soul the means thereto doth cherish And blest art thou Sir William Waller when With heart and mind to this thou say'st Amen Amen Amen to this Amen say I Amen say all that love His Majesty The Fourth Song My Muse doth now make hast into the North To taste a Messe of Scottish ill made Broth And dine her self with Plummery and Keale Although she makes a very hungry meale And sooth to say and not at all to jest Shee 'l tell you whom she findeth at that feast BRave Limping Lesley Rebels welcome Guest Thy rough and boistrous blast blows North North East A Wind that 's good for neither Man nor Beast And yet inclos'd in Concave of thy brest Like Eolus thou send'st it forth from thence And mak'st thereby a raging violence Which doth produce a fearfull bleeding work All to uphold thy factious Scottish Kirk And bring a proud and up-start Presbytrie To Rule and sway in Englands Monarchie And in this work to further thy int●nt A Factious Force from England there is sent So that the Factious in both Kingdoms are Against their King met in Rebellious Warre Working ther● by each Kingdoms fatall fall And this to do th' art made a Generall Doth Scotlands Kyrk thy actions look upon Allowing Ill that Good may come thereon Gods word then sure is not the Rule whereby They order all their seeming Sanctity All of thy Kyrk condemn I must not dare Among them sure some Learn'd Divines there are Some that are just and good and holy men With all my heart I love and reverence them But for the most the Swing of their intent Is unto Schisme and Faction chiefly bent The Brethren of the Parity are they Which in Rebellions Warre do bear most sway And for a true religious work allow it None of the Faction dare to dis-avow it Thou of that Brother-hood a Brother art And stand'st though halting strongly on their part Say not thou art a true Religious man Thy best is but a Rebel-Puritan Thou giv'st a mocking taunt to Purity And art but pure Religions Enemy Who plainly shew'st by thy Rebellious Course Thou hast no more Religion then a Horse Did ever Pure Religion teach this thing That Subjects might raise Warre against their King For any Cause or seeming good pretence No true Religion unto such offence Doth warrant give That false one doth of Rome Unto whole Tenent thou doest closely come Thus as the Devill to the Collyer cryed Like unto Like So thou with Rome dost side I care not though thou take my words in Snuffe I will not fear to give thy Pride a Cuffe Thy self thy words thy works all rude and rough Are Bastard-like base mis-begotten stuffe But in the wisdom of thine own conceit If thou dost think praise on thy Actions wait Then must I tell thee out of Wisdoms School That thou art left more hopelesse then a Fool The wisest King that ever Scotland bred Whose judgement was with understanding fed In things Divine to cleer each rais'd-up doubt There was like him in all the world through out Not any King It was his full intent To state both Kingdoms in one Government That Scholler like King and King of Schollers He The English and the Scottish Church did see Both of one Faith and that they might agree In Discipline with fuller unity Considering our English Form was found More pure then that of Scotland and more sound His whole endeavours he did then incline That Scots might use the English Discipline And to that end our Service-book he sent To them that they therewith might be content Which if with Ours it did not full agree Upon Complaint it should amended be And rightly judging that Episcopy Was b●st agreeing unto Manarchy He laboured that Scotlands Church might have Their learned Bishops godly wise and grave By this one Form of Discipline he knew Both Churches should be one though they were two And might appear full strong in their defence When in them both there was no difference But that blest work most proudly was withstood By those that were the Factious Brother-hood Whose malice did mischievously contrive Their Bishops all at once away to drive And in despight our Service book they throw Out of their Church A better yet I trow Nay more I dare 'gainst any undertake Those Factious Fooles could not can ever make Scarce one so good Of one thing I am sure The Scriptures Test it will throughout endure Here now begins Rebellion forth to break And Rebels mouths most lavishly do speak Gainst Gods Annoynted and belch out this lie That he did mean to bring in Poperie A thing which never came into his thought As knowing wel what works proud Rome hath wrought Yet now he finds his factious Subjects all Are in their works Rome-like Tyrannicall And thou proud Generall a man accurst If not the worst of all yet next the worst Do'st as a Chiefe in their Society Uphold this work of damn'd Impiety And with thee joyn our English Schismaticks The bratts of Hagar full of mocking tricks Our Mother-Church you all most proudly scorn As Hagar Sarah and each Isaack born Of h●r blest womb each childe of promise must With you as Off-scummes out of doore be thrust None are a Church but those of your new faction Lo how you joyn with Rome in this your action And this your monstrous bui●ding up to reare Against your King you proudly Arms do beare For why such sonnes of Desperation Can give themselves a Dispensation Two famous Kingdoms thus confounded are By Civill most uncivill barbarous warre The secret plot which did this work contrive Got life long since though then not seen alive To Luds great Town was sent from Edens land The Contract which fast joyned hand in hand This factious Crew by Vow and Oath to make This rue-full warre which dangerously doth shake Of either Kingdom their most strong foundation And threatneth both with direfull desolation For now ye see the Scottish Covenanter His Covenant dares to English Lords preferre
bring in Popery When they but thought in one conformity To state the Church her Peace to dignifie If Bishops all the self same thing had minded It had been well as now too late we find it Next to the Faith the Churches Peace to keep Which broken now makes thousand eyes to weep Faiths Doctrine when 't is kept uprightly sound Should outward Form the Churches Peace confound Our God you know the God of Order is Each Christian King had always power in this In his own Kingdom to determin so As all the Church might in one Order go In outward Form of Church-like Government * To which because our King his purpose bent Must your Rebellious Tongues with one Consent Say that it was his Majesties intent Again for sooth to bring in Popery In plain Terms truth to speak Rebels ye lye a Though Roman Bishops now are found to swerve From Rule of Truth must Bishops all deserve To be accompted Popes What have they don Since Reformation in our Church begun b King Edward and His Bishops they drove out Romes Popery and with resolution stout Withstood proud R●mes usurpt Suprema●i● And did our Churches evills remedy Our Queen Eliza with the full consent Of Englands then most happy Parliament Where all her Reverend Bishops joyntly met For they in Parliament have alwayes set King Edwards Laws confirmed and did scorn By Papall power to be overborn King Iames with his grave Bishops did comply To write 'gainst Rome and that most learnedly And in despight of Rome and Romes disdain Our Englands Church did in her Peace maintain And would not suffer any factious brain The honour of her setled Peace to stain And our King Charles and all his Bishops they Do hold their course even in the self same way Our good King and his Bishops now condemned Should rather for their care be much commended Old Rome at first with pious Bishops fil'd Our now-Religion was by them upheld Their Bishops all for first six hundred years As ours now are they were as it appears When Bishop Iewel's Challenge could not gain One Romish Bishop able to maintain Romes now-Religion in those points we fall Away from that which we do Popery call Why are our Bishops then so much despized No new Religion is by them devised The old Religion is by them revived Who never yet so vil●● thing contrived As you haue done when for Religions sa●e You do most vile Rebellion lawfull make Of Bishops Protestants I know this thing None ever prov'd a Traitor to his King Let Brownists then our Bishops let alone And know themselves for Rebels every one For what though some defects there might be found In some of them Yet firmly stands this ground A personall defect ne're takes away The Lawfulnesse of Place but still that may Be kept For this the Rule hath alwayes bin Uphold the place but take away the sin But now the place must quite unlawfull be When some defects we do in persons see Way given to this what Place can firmly stand Behold what course the Factious take in hand But which is strange as Bishops they defie So they against our Churches Prayers do crie And say the Church of Christ is much abus'd When those good Prayers of our Church are us'd The Church to give set forms of Prayer Now fic Where 's then the Spirit which immediately Inspires the Church and all her Ministry To pray to God and that effectually Know Moses did set forms of Prayer prescribe To Israels people even to every Tribe Which should be us'd when they in hand did take Their ●ourney with Gods Holy Arke to make Both at the taking up when they began Their daily March and when at even they came Unto their Resting Place Like holy forme By those by whom the Glorious Arke was born Was us'd in Prayer These Form●Moses gave Unto the Church Doth he deserve to have It said Fie on Him for his doing so What God allows who dare to it say no Gods word a form of blessing doth expresse And wills his Church in blessing so to blesse Then fie on those who cannot now ab●de Set forms of Prayer but do them deride Know holy David Songs of Prayer and Praise Did form and penne that thereby he might raise The hearts of all Gods People up on high To pray unto and praise the Majesty Of our great God with Prayers and Praises fit Which might in them an holy zeal beget And then those Psalms unto the Church he sent Which there unto our God he did present Was then think you the Church of God abus'd By them by whom those holy forms were vs'd Our holy Common-Prayer-book first pen'd By those who did for Christ their blood expend Should not I think be as it is depraved By wilfull Fools who will a Masse-book have it Those that compiled it Romes Masse did hate And Englands Church in true Religion state Those then by whom that Book is now refused By them God and his Church is most abused And yet at this we need not wonder much For why their pride and arrogance is such As even that Prayer which Christ himself did make They most blasphemously in scorn do take When Barrow stood at Tyburn in a Cart Under the Gallows praying in his heart The lookers on to him did humbly say In the Lords ●rayer Sir let 's hear you pray He shal't his head and did refuse to do it And so was hang'd Their pride may bring them to it But yet there do some other things remain Which they accompt do so Religion stain As those to use they highly do disdain And would all others should with them refrain To touch such trash or neer them once to come As being Reliques of the Church of Rome In outward things who do Religion place To true Religion do a foule disgrace But what things are they that their Conscience scare O Monstrous things Such as most fearfull are I 'le shew you them and so you 'l cleerly see What terrible and fearfull things they be Our harmlesse Ceremonies do them fright Our Gesture Habit each of them a Spright And scares them Now by this you may descrie The strangenesse of their fearfull foolerie Should things indifferent Divisions make When Truth commandeth that for Christ his sake To every Ordinance of man not bent Against the Faith we be obedient The Conscience should be rul'd by Rule of faith And what I say I 'me sure the Scripture saith But factious Fools to give themselves content Have worse then Roman Souldiers basely rent The unscam'd Coat of Christ in pieces and To justifie their work in Arms they stand So that our Brown with Brownists now consents Even to dispute with cutting Arguments Browne no lesse fearfull seemes thy Cocks-comb head Then Lion Rampant in Cake Ginger bread But stay my Muse thy mark thou tak'st amisse For Browne will say that
he no Brownist is No Is he not He is as bad or worse As now appears by his Rebellious course Though Brownists from our Church do separate They cannot thereof overthrow the state So dangerously as those amongst us staying Who still appear our Churches Peace betraying Here the Triumviri which first begin To lead the way unto Rebellions sin Are Burton Bastwick and their brother Prynne The stinking Sink of honoured Lincolnes-Inne These three the Church and Common-wealth would sway All men of greatest Understanding They Would seem to see all dangers imminent And seeming ones with mischief to prevent These lay their Plot upon which ground now stands The Armies of Rebellions armed hands I know them all and for them have been sad To see that they no more discretion had In every thing that counsell is not just Which thus prescribeth To be sure mistrust Mov'd by meere jealousies the more 's their guilt They throw down Out-works where no Fort is built For what they saw they should not so have spoken The Lyon sleeps when yet his eyes are open There was a care Romes Popery to withstand Even in those things which then were tool in hand● Yet they crie out Saile not too neer Romes Gates Lest Popery prevaile thus talk't these Mates Those that would in the way of Truth prevaile Must sailing unto Heav'n by Hells Gates sa●●e And yet their course in all things wisely steere As Rocks and Shelves and Sands they never feare The Churches Ship in this worlds Sea thus sailing 'gainst Rocks Shelves and Sands shall be prevailing And those that thus in sailing wisely strive At last in Heavens fair Haven shall arrive But they so ill a course like wise-ones took As on a Dangerous Rock the Ship is strook And must into a generall shipwrack fall If this Rebellious Warre continue shall In which thou Brown a great Commander art And Brownist art in taking of their part But all this while I cannot but admire What things they are these Rebels do require Is it the true Religion to uphold This to defend our King is wondrous bold His Royall person into th' Field to bring And to his Subjects say Behold your King Compleat in Arms Religion to defend And for the same his dearest blood to spend And in this Cause Prince Charles with valiant spirit Doth nobly seek true Honours fame to merit And in th' atchievement of this glorious work We may behold the Princely Duke of York This sight but seen should make Rebellion cease And move all Subjects to embrace a Peace So often offered by his Royall Grace Why should not this in every Heart take place If in this warre the Royall blood be spilt Can England ever wash away the guilt What is your ayme All Papists out to root Is this the mark whereat your minds do shoot This but suspected Papists on their Guard Would stand and so your Market might be marr'd They do not want the best Intelligence There 's not a Kingdom but they hear from thence And whatsoere against them is debated Is by some speedy means to them related And sure it is that they did understand Three Kingdoms Schismaticks joyn'd hand in hand A strong Rebellion by degrees to raise Whose first beginning should be Scotlands praise And in that work although most closely arted The Papists knew they chiefly should have smarted Have been destroyed every Mothers Child At best should be perpetually exil'd This Myne perceiv'd a Counter Myne was wrought Which to effect in Ireland first was brought Not Papists there they Schismaticks did call As here not Schismaticks were Papists all First Irelands Myne did spring and up were blown The Protestants of English Nation Thus did this bloody Warre take its beginning From Web of woe our Schismaticks were spinning For Papists Now when Ireland thus br●ke forth Resolved to go on by Vow and Oath Our Parliament was trusted to addresse Some present means Rebellion to suppresse And Moneys raised were to this intent That presently an Army should be sent To Ireland but then suddenly did break Rebellion forth here mongst our selves to speak The Truth contrived long before Rebellion here increasing more and more By Moneys here for Irelands cause collected An home-bred sad Rebellion was protected Which spareth no mans lively-hood nor life But strikes at all and still doth grow more ri●e Wherein our good King Charles hath saddest share His sorrows being deep beyond compare His Royall Heart from grief to grief proceeding To see that all his Kingdoms lye a bleeding Herewith when as my mourning Muse had met Teers from my eyes my blotted Papers wet The more because Our King still offer'd Peace Yet Rebels would not from Rebellion cease What hearts have they whence do they draw their might 'gainst King so good can any subject fight But next unto pretens'd Religions cause They say they fight for to maintain the Laws Of Englands Kingdom and the Subjects Right For these they bring their Armies forth to fight O shamelesse boldnesse that dares this averre When all the Kingdoms Laws by this their Warre They overthrow so much as in them lies T' uphold the Kingdoms Laws His Majesties Great Care is known he nothing more desires The Magna Charta's that which he requires Should stand in force of Englands Laws the ground And in that Magna Charta there is found A solemn Curse which doth most sharply speak 'gainst those who shall our Laws foundation break Though not pronounc'd at our Great Courts down setting Yet still it speaks a Curse on those begetting Who shall our Kingdoms National Laws destroy And Childrens Children may that Curse enjoy But this Rebellion Subjects Right doth seek As it the former doth for both alike Are over-thrown by it The Laws maintain The Subjects Right by Law the Subjects gain Their just propriety in every thing This to uphold our just and righteousse King Commands his Judges wherein if they faile The Law doth then against themselves prevaile Faine would the King at White-Hall Palace be That thence he might his Reverend Judges see In Order each unto their Courts to passe O what a singular blessed sight it was For Christ himself doth say Kings reign by me I Judges make my Justice to decree The King and Judges out of this way kept The Kingdom is of her just Laws bereft Who are they then that Subjects Right debarre The King or those that 'gainst the King make Warre Admit some wrongs 'gainst Law the Subjects grieved Were they not by our Gracious King relieved In those last Statutes which he pleas'd to make But now for making Laws new wayes we take The Subject dares against his Soveraigns will Make Laws what Age can president such ill That lawlesse man the Antichrist of Rome Within the bounds of Law will never come Divine and Humane Laws he breaks them all And Ruleth by a power Tyrannicall He standing on high terms doth
