A Whigg Ballad, OR, A SUMMONS To a fresh ASSOCIATION. To the Tune of Tumble down Dick.
|
ON Month of September we summon you All,
|
Our Summons is by our Good Lord Mayor's Call,
|
As you Love Common-Wealth, and Abhor White-Hall:
|
Which nobody can deny.
|
Tho Vote for P--- and Weaver D---
|
(The Whiggs thrice-beloved, not Citizens, Choice;)
|
No matter what Reason, so you make a Noise;
|
Which nobody can deny.
|
(Ralph B--- having, after a long Tory-Tugg,
|
Instead of a Druggist, himself prov'd a Drugg,
|
Paid Fine to a Lover of Dear Mother Mugg:)
|
Which, etc.
|
You All here are cited to Common-Hall Vote.
|
Each one to lift up his True Protestant Throat,
|
And bawl in Defyance of Men of good Note:
|
Which, etc.
|
These are therefore to summon each Eves-dropping Citt,
|
Who for a State-Holder has dubb'd himself fit,
|
And damns All that's Loyal without Fear or Wit:
|
Which, etc.
|
To Roar at Guild-Hall like Homerical Mars,
|
In defyance oth' Head, with regard to the *A---
|
(Guild-Hall is your Stage, and Sedition your Farce.)
|
Which, etc.
|
Now after a Summons so Debonaire,
|
Held forth by Proprietour of the Chair,
|
We challenge All Whiggs to Guild-Hall to repair:
|
Which, etc.
|
For if half be True, that of late has been bruited,
|
The Rioting Whiglanders soon will be Routed,
|
As sure as Don Hornish by Bull was Cornuted:
|
Which, etc.
|
Then either born up by bold Holder forth,
|
You'l bravely confront your *Deadly Foe North,
|
Contending like Men of True Protestant Worth:
|
Which, etc.
|
Or else, like Men-worthy, at Home you will Stay.
|
Solacing your Wives the Jack Pres-byter way;
|
If so, Good Old Cause must sing Well-a-day.
|
Which, etc.
|
|
