Clarindon's HOUSE-WARMING WHen Clarindon had discern`d beforehand As the Cause can eas`ly foretel the Effect At once three Deluges threatning our Land ` T was the season he thought to turn Architect Us Mars and Apollo and Vulcan consume VVhile he the Betrayer of England and Flander Like the King-fisher chuseth to build in the Broom And nestles in flames like the Salamander But observing that Mortals run often behind So unreasonable are the rates they buy-at His Omnipotence therefore much rather design'd How he might create a House with a Fiat He had read of Rhodope a Lady of Thrace Who was dig'd up so often ere she did marry And wish'd that his Daughter had had as much grace To erect him a Pyramid out of her Quarry But then recollecting how the Harper Amphyon Made Thebes dance aloft while he fidled and sung He thought as an Instrument he was most free on To build with the Jews-trump of his own tongue Yet a President fitter in Virgil he found Of African Poultney and Tyrian Dide That he begg'd for a Pallace so much of his ground As might carry the measure and name of an Hyde Thus dayly his Gouty Inventions he pain'd And all for to save the expences of Brickbat That Engine so fatal which Denham had brain'd And too much resembled his Wives Chocolatte But while these devices he all doth compare None sollid enough seem'd for his strong Castor He himself would not dwell in a Castle of air Though he had built full many a one for his Master Already he had got all our Money and Cattel To buy us for Slaves and purchase our Lands What Ioseph by Famine he wrought by Sea-Battel Nay scarce the Priests portion could scape from his hands And hence like Pharoah that Israel prest To make Mortar and Brick yet allow'd them no straw He car'd not though Egypt's Ten Plagues us distrest So he could to build but make Policy Law The Scotch Forts Dunkirk but that they were sold He would have ●emolisht to raise up his Walls Nay ev'n from Tangier have sent back for the mold But that he had nearer the Stones of St. Pauls His Wood would come in at the easier rate So long as the Yards had a Deal or a Spar His Friend in the Navy would not be ingrate To grudge him some Timber who fram'd him the War To proceed in the Model he call'd in his Allons The two Allons when jovial who ply him with gallons The two Allons who serve his blind Justice for ballance The two Allons who serve his Injustice for Tallons They approve it thus far and said it was fine Yet his Lordship to finish it would be unable Unless all abroad he divulg'd the de●ign For his House then would grow like a Vegetable His Rent would no more in arreas run to Worster He should dwell more noble and cheap too athome While into a fabrick the Presents would mus●er As by hook and by crook the world cluster'd of Atome He lik'd the advice and then soon it assay'd And Presents croud headlong to give good example So the Bribes overlaid her that Rome once betray'd The Tribes ne'er contributed so to the Temple Straight Judges Priests Bishops true sons of the Seal Sinners Governors Farmers Banquers Patentees ●ring in the whole Mite of a year at a meal As the Chodder Clubs Dairy to the incorporate Cheese Bul●●a●es Beak●s Morley VVrens fingers with telling Were shriveled and Clu●terbuck Eagers Kips Since the Act of Oblivion was never suc●●selling As at this Benevolence out of the Snips 'T was then the Chimny-Contractors he smoakd Nor would take his beloved Canary in kind But he swore that the Patent should ne'er be revok'd No would the whole Parliament kiss him behind Like Iove under Aetna o'erwhelming the Gyant For foundation the Bristol sunk in the Earth's bowel And St. Iohn must now for the Leads be compliant Or his right hand shall else be cut off with the Trowel For surveying the building Prat did the feat But for the expence he rely'd upon Worstenholm Who sate heretofore at the Kings Receipt 〈◊〉 receiv'd now and paid the Chancellours Custome By Subsidies thus both Clerick and Laick And with matter profane cemented with holy He finish'd at last his Palace Mosaick By a Model more excellent than Lesly's Folly And upon the Tarrus to consummate all A Lanthorn like Faux's surveys the burnt Town And shews on the top by the Regal G●lt Ball VVhere you are to expect the Scepter and Crown Fond City its Rubbish and Ruines that builds Like vain Chymists a flower from its ashes returning Your Metropolis House is in St Iames's Fields And till there you remove you shall never leave burning This Temple of VVar and of Peace is the Shrine VVhere this Idol of State sits ador'd and accurst And to handsel his Altar and Nostrils divine Great Buckingham's Sacrifice must be the first Now some as all Builders must censure abide Throw dust in its Front and blame situation And others as much reprehend his Backside As too narrow by far for his expatiation But do not consider how in process of times That for Name-sake he may with Hyde Park it enlarge And with that convenience he soon for his Cr●●● At Tybourn may land and spare the Tower-Barge Or rather how wisely his S●all was built near Le●t with driving too far his Tallow impair When like the good Oxe for publick good chear He comes to be roasted next St. Iames's Fair. Upon his House HEre lies the sacred Bones Of Paul beguiled of his Stones Here lie Golden Briberies The price of ruin'd Families The Cavaliers Debenter-Wall Fixt on an Eccentrick Basis Here 's Dunkirk-Town and Tangier-Hall The Queens Marriage and all The Dutchman's Templum Pacis Upon his Grand-Children KEndal is dead and Cambridge riding post VVhat fitter Sacrifice for Denham's Ghost FINIS
