It was a great sin ' gainst their conscience I 'me sure That no Law or Gospel could ever indure Although with a colour of pureness they did it And under the Mask of Religion they hid it Jack Hewson and Jones St. Hugh and his bones To be the Kings Iudges did sit upon Thrones But now they are coupled like slaves as they are And their High Court of Justice is brought to the Bar. They set up a new Law for to murther him But 't is a good old Law that shall hang up them These brave men of war and bold Champions must now In Middlesex for't make a new randezvow Like Rogues they must rally And from Newgate sally Vnto the sad Sessions-house in the old Bayley And there to be try'd as all murtherers are For their High Court of Justice c. Their many successes and victories got Vpon the poor English the Irish and Scot Perswaded them that they should live with their treasure In freedome in safety in plenty and pleasure That they could not fall From places so tall Because they had gotten the Devil and all But now they do finde that in spight of the War Their High Court of Justice c. Your Sectaries that did all fight for our goods Renounce all your Actions and leave you i' th' suds Your fasting and praying on other mens Lands Have brought your necks under the hang-mans commands The people do moan The Gallows doth groan Till you have ascended the thrée legged Throne Where you shall be mounted as Murtherers are Whose High Court of Justice c. Hugh Peters lies terribly under the lash Hée now must forsake both the world and the flesh His Mistress and hée must bée parted and then The Butcher may have his own Brindle again The Gentleman you Did call fool good Hugh At this time may question you who 's the fool now Such politick knaves the greatest fools are When High Court of Justice c. When you flatter'd Oliver up in his sin You did not suppose that the King would come in When you made Religion your Baud and your Punk You scarce thought upon the Lord General Monk When for Wedding-Rings You fought against Kings You little did think to bée hagn'd in the strings From henceforth let all Polititians beware Their High Court of Justice will come to the Bar. They say Hewson's taken I wish it be true Hee was a bold knave give the Devil his due The thrée corner'd Shop-stall hee now must ascend Where Dun will prepare him a Coblers-end Hée rose up in haste But falls down as fast And now the blinde Cobler will lose Awl at last For such hasty risers their punishment are When High Courts of Justice are brought to the Bar. Bold Harrison as the wilde rumour doth run Will iustifie this bloody fact hee hath done But let him take héed lest for such a great slaughter His soul méet an High Court of Iustice hereafter A Court that controuls I pity their souls And shall pray for them when St. Pulchres bell towls God's milde Courts of mercy for penitents are When High Court of Justice c. I wish they had never deserved this Tryal But bathing their guilty hands in the blood Royal I griev'd when his Majesty lost his dear breath More than I shall joy at his Murtherers death God bless our good King From Treason soul spring And give him those Ioyes that are everlasting Rejoyce and be glad all that innocent are For the High Court of Justice is brought to the Bar The Names of those bloody Persons who sate gave Judgement assisted in that horrid and detestable Murther of King Charles the first of blessed memory whose Estates both real and personal are to be secured IOhn Bradshaw Serjeant at Law President of the pretended High Court of Justice I.
