A NEW
SONG
ENTITULED,
The WARMING-PAN.

WHEN Jemmy the Second, not Jemmy the First,
With Vexation and Poxes and Impotence Cursd,
Saw the good Cause must end, which so well he began,
Swore the Church, since he coud not, should get him a Son
Derry down, down, etc.

To Work went the Church on her Majestys Womb,
By her true Representations, Fryers from Rome;
But they well warmd, her true Catholic Mettle,
They never could make the Meat boil in the Kettle.
Derry down.

But since it was determind an Heir must be got,
No matter from Kettle, from Pan or from Pot;
In Mettles Fertile, the old JESUITS Clan,
Producd a brave Boy, from a Brass-Warming Pan.
Derry down.

But Old England, quite harrassd with Papists before,
The Brat being Spurious, would sure bear no more;
But with little Wills help, kickd the Spawn of a Fryer,
From out of the Warming-Pan, into the Fire.
Derry down.

Full many a Year, has the Bastard been Nursd,
By Paris and Rome, who engenderd him first;
And now they have sent to promote their old Plan,
The Son of the Son, of the Brass-Warming-Pan.
Derry down.

Oh! B[r]itains, reflect, why you drove out the One,
And dread the same Evils, or worse from the Son;
Quick, to Paris, or Rome, make your Perkin retire,
Or were out of the Warming-Pan, into the Fire.
Derry down.

Sure Scotland remembers, the direful Fate,
When they succourd the Warming-Pans, Father of late;
How many to Tower, and Newgate, were sent,
Some Heads were cut off, and too late did Repent.
Derry down.

May all be servd so, that takes up the Cause,
For Rome, or the D---l, make daily applause;
Lets firmly unite in the Protestant Case,
Drive Pretender to the D---l, keep King George in his place.
Derry down.
