A NEW SONG, BEING THE TORIES TRYUMPH, OR, THE Point well Weathered: To a New Theatre Tune.
|
I.
|
SOme say, the Papists had a Plot,
|
Against the Church and Crown;
|
But be it so, or be it not,
|
The King must please the Town.
|
The Papists take Tybourn by turns,
|
To please the City-Gulls;
|
Its strange, that they, who all wear Horns,
|
Should fear the Popish Bulls,
|
II.
|
The House of Commons blow the Coals,
|
The Nation to dissettle;
|
And, like true Tinkers, make two Holes,
|
To mend one in a Kettle:
|
Or else, What needs that precious Vote,
|
That if the King should Fall
|
By Pagan, or Phanatick Plot,
|
The Pope must pay for all?
|
III.
|
Our Royal James of Princely Race,
|
And High Illustrious Fame,
|
Was not thought fit, by Commons base,
|
To follow Charless Waine:
|
But let that House of Office know,
|
When they have Sowd their Leaven,
|
He shall Succeed, though they say no,
|
By all the Laws of Heaven.
|
IV.
|
Old Cavaliers for Loyalty
|
They streight Clapt up for Treason,
|
In hopes to bring in Anarchy,
|
Gainst Justice, Sense, and Reason.
|
Brave Hallifax and Feversham,
|
Brave Worster, Just and Wise,
|
They did Vote down, as dangerous Men,
|
That they Themselves might Rise.
|
V.
|
But Oh! that Lord in Leistershire,
|
Turnd Catchpole, though too Late;
|
Tis better Priests in Prison were,
|
Then Bums should loose their Trade:
|
For Priest poor Waller never sought,
|
But where was Golden Crosses;
|
His Mirmidons went Snacks, tis Thought,
|
In all the Owners Losses.
|
VI.
|
The Doctor he has bid Farewell
|
To Jesus, and the Court;
|
And Tonys Tap runs flat and dull,
|
Makes Catch in hopes of Sport.
|
Bleu Protestants can make no work,
|
Unless like Hungary,
|
They for Religion Joyn the Turk,
|
For Christian Liberty.
