A NEW SONG. Or, Englands Outcry against the late Lord Chancellour Jefferies. To a pleasant new Tune.
|
YOu Protestants all draw near to this place,
|
And some of the Roguries I will rehearse
|
Of Jeffery George who was once the Recorder
|
Has put the whole Nation into a disorder;
|
For which Villains part,
|
I think in my heart,
|
He ought to be tide to the tale of a Cart,
|
And for to be Whipt without any delay,
|
From New-Gate to Tyburn, along the High-way.
|
Since Whipping's made Law by the Baron of Wem,
|
The Bread that he broke shou'd be broken agen,
|
For Johnson and Oats, he whipp'd without cause;
|
He ought to be punnish'd for breaking our Laws,
|
And advancing the Pope,
|
For which I do hope
|
His Honor at Tyburn will peep through a Rope,
|
Which is his desert and th' Effects of his Dream,
|
For driving like Jehu along with the Stream.
|
Remember the Bishops, your Pride and Ambition,
|
How you from the Crown obtain'd a Commission
|
To Try all the Clergy that preacht against Rome;
|
'Twas the Pride of your Heart that made you presume
|
To be such a thing
|
Cajoal'd by the King,
|
You've made the whole Land of your Roguries ring,
|
You seized our Charters and struck at the Test,
|
Remember you hang'd up the Men in the West.
|
But now you'r in Limbo with your Goggle Eyes,
|
For giving false Judgment and telling of Lyes.
|
In the Equitty-Court you will no more Bawl,
|
Now all your Upholders are gone from Whitehall,
|
And left you behind,
|
Which is very unkind;
|
But Oh by me Shoul 'tis a Protestant Wind
|
That brought the Prince in, and blow'd Popery out,
|
And you'll be advanc'd at Tyburn no doubt.
