The fall is near of the fourth Monarchie The Rule 's divided amongst many Kings In whose days shall be seen most glorious things VVhich were foreseen of holy men of old And by God's Prophets were to us fore-told The God of Heav'n a Kingdom erect shall VVhich cannot be destroyed but to all Ages to last inherit it none can IESUS alone must rule not mortal man It shall in pieces batter and lay wast All other Kingdoms and for ever last Before our King's arrival Saints shall sway The Scepter and the wicked world obey Down must the Horns o' th' Beast ye Kings o' th Earth VVho from the cruel Beast have had your birth And he his pow'r received from the Devil The Dragon who 's the author of all Evil VVho being from Heav'n cast and full of ire Against the Saints hath kindled a fire Of Persecution and Authority He gave unto the beastly Monarchy His head adorn'd he hath with Blasphemies Against God's Name and fills the world with lies Against his People Church his Leopards skin Clearly informs us he 's the Man of Sin He gave him feet like to a fierce Bears claws To execute the Dragon's sinful Laws A Lion's mouth God's People to devour Thus from the Devil had the Beast his pow'r Ye Earthly Potentates behold and see Your Coats of Arms here is your Pedigree Here likewise may be seen your destiny If you have led into captivity God's holy Saâ—â—ts be sure in the same state You shall be led this is your certain fate If any you have killed by the Sword You shall be served so so saith God's Word Here is the Faith and Patience of the Saints God in due time will surely hear their plaints He once receiv'd almost a deadly wound On one of his heads some peace then was found Among the Nations and God's People all With joy expected for to see his fall But now that 's healed which was rent in sunder The worldly people follow him with wonder With joy they worship Beast and Dragon too Bragging what power can the Beast undoe But from the Earth another Beast did rise Horn'd like a Lamb his mouth speaks blasphemies The Dragon like pretended to reform Made th' Image of the Beast call'd it a Form Of Worship Prayers or the Lyturgie Commanded all to it to bow the knee If to this Image you will not down fall Be it enacted you are Traitors all All sorts and sexes hearken to th' Command You must be mark'd i' th forehead or i' th hand That is conform or else you must not trade The Beastly Priest swears such a Law is made And all must it obey Let ev'ry soul Be subject to the Powr's who dare controul The Dragon Beast the beastly Scarlet Whore If any dare they perish shall therefore But must this Serpents broad for every sway Full fain they would but God himself saith nay The Government o' th' Saints now draweth near Read ye the Prophets they are full and clear This devilish crew must stoop and them obey Before King IESUS will the Scepter sway The Mountain of God's House exalt he will O' th top o' th Mountains above every Hill All Tongues and Nations that are here below Unto God's holy Church for Truth shall flow And he himself will teach them all his Wayes And how to tread in his Paths to his praise From Sion shall the Law go forth to them God's holy Word too from Ierusalem Then they shall judge the People all in right Rebuke their Enemies learn not to fight But into Plowshares beat the warlike Sword Your Spears to Pruning-hooks for why the Word Of great IEHOVAH shall your Enemies So quail that they shall never 'gainst you rise Proud man's high looks by him shall humbled be The lofty mind hee 'l place in low degree Lebanons Cedars that are high and tall And Bashans Oaks the Lord will level all Idols and Idol-priests he will destroy Look up on high ye Saints and sing for joy Howl ye Malignants fly your selves to hide The presence of our King you cann't abide Haste to the Rocks and fly into dark Caves Of your beloved Earth tremble ye slaves Of Satan fore his glorious Majesty Who is now come all people for to try What you 've devoted to Idolatry To th' Moles and Bats throw all as vanity Let Priests and Tyrants too retire with shame To th' loathsom lake of Hell from whence they came What mean ye Tyrants God's Laws to contemn What mean you thus his People to condemn Though innocent Whatever you intend God hath decreed to make an utter end Of all his and his Peoples Enemies The second time Affliction shall not rise Whilst you as sharp thorns with each others twist And think to tyrannize ev'n as you lift Whilst Drunkards like ye drunken are with blood With your confederates hope t' encrese the flood Of Persecution and to tyrannize Yet more and more hear what God doth devise Like Stubble fully dry his mighty Power Shall kindle you with Fire you devour Although you many be and live at ease Though you full Pleasures have and are in peace Ye Counsellors of Belial that do plot Mischeif against the Lord you 're not forgot God will pass through and oversee you all And in a moment great shall be your fall But to his People that to him do pray With yearning Bowels kindly he will say Though I have you afflicted heretofore I 'le turn my hand and you afflict no more And I will break the Yoke that you oppress In sunder burst the Bands of your distress Then God's Command to his foes shall be known No more of their name 'mongst you shall be sown The Bastards brood hee 'l root out of the Land His People they shall never more withstand The filthy Idols Temples he will race Molten and Graven Image with disgrace He will turn out and condemn to the Grave The Vile and Swinish Priests that you enslave Over the Mountains look behold and see How beautiful the Messengers feet be That in this dismal day glad Tidings bring And publish't have the Raign of Sions King Ye poysonous Dragons brood away fly fly This news your very souls will terifie Run run but all in vain you 're all cut off By them who were the objects of your scoff And laughter whom in your prosperous dayes You did reproach and Persecution raise Them to destroy and made them all your prey Unless they would walk in your dirty way Open your eyes blind People now and see Who 's in the right who the Phanaticks be Who are the Rebels Traytors Hereticks Now you may see such terms were but the tricks O' th' cunning Dragon People to delude To brand God's holy Saints the multitude Against them to provoke The Magpy Priest He is the Agent of this ugly Beast And he
perswades you by his Masters wit That to oppress God's People 's very fit For what he saith he will pretend a Reason And prove them to be guilty of high Treason Because they 'l not obey the King saith he Nor yet serve God What greater Crime can be If you 're so stubborn that this will not do Then he will prove the point by Scripture too That the three Children were damnd to the fire 'Cause they withstood their Sovereigns desire They would not him obey nor serve his god Who can suppose but they must feel his rod Within his fiery Furnace they must burn 'Cause from their Heresie they will not turn Phanatick Daniel too hee 'l not obey But pray he will though's gracious King saith nay Then take him Lion him in peices tear For in those dayes no Bishops Courts there were Nor yet had Parliaments come to so high A pitch as now they have of Policy To Banish them into some unknown Land Because they 'd not obey their Kings Command Many such places with these do agree To plead compelling to conformitie If this will not Phanaticks satisfie The Priests can say no more no more can I. Ye Babylonish Panders cease your joy The Lord the Whore your Mistriss will destroy The Horns o' th Beast Kings shall the Strumpet hate Present her naked make her desolate God in their hearts shall kindle such an ire 'Gainst her to eat her flesh burn her with fire Wait for God's powerful Angel ye Upright The Earth from 's Glory 'gins to receive light Hear hear his Voice proclaims destruction Unto the great and mighty Babylon It s fallen fallen and in ev'ry Nation Of Devils is become the habitation A hold of loathsome spirits and a cage Of filthy hateful Birds in every Age. All Kingdoms since her reign and every Nation Have drunk her wrathful Wine of Fornication Kings of the Earth have eas'ly been drawn in VVith this lewd Whore to act that beastly sin The earthly Merchants too have made a prize By the abundance of her Merchandize Your Faces from her turn heark to the call Of God from Heaven to his People all Come out of her partake not of her crimes Delay not it relates to th' present times If of her sins you 'l venture to partake Share you must in her plagues your soul 's at stake Her sins ev'n unto Heav'n do loudly cry And God remembreth her Iniquity Happy thrice happy Sons o' th' Separation 'T is you shall see yea work her desolation 'T is you must her requite and her reward To her and to her Brats have no regard Heav'ns vengeance execute Give her her due Repay her double what she did to you Fill up the Cup of her Affliction And give it her yea give her two for one Survey her Glory and delightful sport So much of grief and torment give her for 't Now in her heart she saith She sits a Queen No Widows sorrow on her shall be seen Yet in one day her plagues shall her undoe Pale Death sad Mourning pining Famine too With Fire she shall quite destroyed he For the Lord God is Iudge and strong is he Ye Earthly Kings what signifies your pow'r See what our King can do ev'n in one hour See what 's become of your beloved Whore VVith whom you 've sinn'd and perish must therefore Howl howl bewail lament with her alas VVith smoke and burning she away must pass Ye Earthly whorish Merchants that have sold Mens souls and bodies your beloved Gold Fine Linen Purple Silk and Scarlet too Both Pearls and Precious Stones all will not doe None none of these can save her from the hand Of Great Iehovah none can him withstand Your Trade must fail your costly VVares and all All that belongs to her with her must fall VVeep weep and mourn all who on her depend Your Riches and your Glory hath an end Rejoyce and sing for joy ye Saints on high Sound praise ye Heav'ns to God's Majestie Holy Apostles and blest Prophets too Praise ye the Lord God hath avenged you Prophets Apostles and the Martyrs blood And all the slain that ever her withstood Is found in her O bloody drunken VVhore Thy full destruction's come even to the door Rouze rouze good People why are you so dull The Heav'ns the Earth of symptoms clear are full The work goes on the Wheel moves in the Wheel God's Word and Works do stir you cann't you feel Where is your Faith ope but one faithful eye And you will see our King's approach is nigh How like a Queen doth sit the Scarlet VVhore Secure she is no sorrow knows therefore One hour shall compleat her misery Out of your Ceiled houses your Tents fly Shake off your slavish fears your worldly pelf Slight as the stinking dung away with self Away with self-concernments do not pause Be not lukewarm in God's most holy Cause Why are you faint what 's become of your might God will encrease your strength if you are right Let th' Wicked faint th' Ungodly weary be And let th' untamed Youth fall utterlie Let lustful Dammums that are Frenchifi'd Faint and be shook in pieces when they 're try'd But they that wait upon God's holy Will He will renew their strength and teach them skill To mount on high as with an Eagles wings They shall with ease perform the hardest things They shall not weary be although they run Walk and not faint what God wills shall be done Keep silence O ye Islands 'fore the Lord Heark what the Lord doth say peace not a word Let his choice People now their strength renew It must be so he hath said and 't is true Ye Wolvish Priests cease roaring silence keep Fly to your dens leave worrying the Sheep Be silent roaring Lions Bulls and Beats The time draws near we shall be freed from fears Pray hold your swearing for it is decreed God's People from your fury shall be freed You are resolv'd to ruine banish kill The Innocent your own lusts to fulfill The righteous God your wrath so order shall That it shall wound your selves and work your fall That God who rais'd the Righteous to 's foot brings Subjects unto them Nations and Kings Makes them like dust before his Sword to fly Drives them before his Bow like stubble dry That God will plead his Peoples cause their wrong He will avenge and you shall see 't ere long Though mean and low ev'n as a worm they be The Holy One of Israel is he Their blest Redeemer he shall them uprear To thresh the Mountains and the Hills to tear Until like dust and chaff they fly away Ye wicked ones expect this dreadful day Zion put on thy strength awake awake Ierusalem thy costly Garments take From henceforth into thee shall come no more Th' uncircumcised children of the Whore Arise and shake thy self in purity Sit down O Zion thy Captivity For ever fly though thou wert sold for nought Without money thy Freedom God hath bought Prepare to meet thy holy heav'nly King Who of all Grace and Mercy is the Spring Behold he quickly comes to th' sons of men Ev'n so Lord IESUS come Amen Amen FINIS Rom. 13. 11 12.
