pritty Were shewn to the King when he came to the City Guild-hall was prepared with costly expence and alter'd to entertain this Kingly guest Where with all variety every sense was courted with plenty at this Royall Feast invention and state upon him did wait the City and Suburbs with people were fraught And no kind of joy that was worthy or witty Was wanting to welcome the King to the City With

's Mates Or any fal'e Powers that were lowzie and nitty Who aim'd to demolish the Charter o th' City With fingers and voices the chiefest that were with loud and soft musick did make the Hall ring That Science did in its best glory appear and was only fit for to welcome a King with voices renown's the Banquets were crown'd in Cathedral manner the Organs did sound All sorts of Invention both wondrous and witty Were fitted to welcome the King to the City Pageants did there in their glory appear the figures did seem all alive as it were In silver and gold they did shine very neer as bright as the Sun when the day doth shi●e clear the Conduits did shine with Liquor divine The people did bear away hats full of wine To run down the streets it was very great pity And thus was the King entertain'd in the City The rooms with rich hangings were brightly attir'd the Air smelt of nothing but costly per●umes As if the whole world at that time had conspir'd to throw all varieties into the rooms the King sate in State the City did wait the Hall did abound in all manner of Plate As if they would tell him Great Caesar wee 'l sit yee With all the choice Treasures belongs to the City The plenty of food which was there at the Feast with flesh fish and fowl and rare kick shaws among In such a small ditty can nere be exprest they cannot be marshall'd all up in a song the Cooks art was great and pallat was neat the Pastry appear'd in its order compleat What ever was curious novelty or witty Attended the King in the love of the City The Earth and the Air and the water conspir'd to shew all the plenty the Kingdome could yeeld It can't be exprest but may well be admir'd the dishes stood thicker than flowers in the field a friend of mine vow'd that stood in the crowd hee sée a large Banquet let down in a cloud Which néeds must appear very pleasant and pretty Unto the beholders the King and the City With fréedome and honour and safety and love the King spent the day then to Whitehall he went May all the choice blessings which God hath above fall on his head daily to crown his content may plenty and peace and union increase may Amity live and may enmity cease May God in his mercy love favour and pity And never divide the good King and the City FINIS London Printed for Francis Grove on Snow Entred according to Order
