LEt all true English heartes now sing
|
Unto the Lord our heavenly King,
|
Which Treasons unto light doth bring,
|
To th' Authors endlesse shame.
|
No Treason was more vild and bad,
|
Which Popish crew conspired had,
|
To make all England morne and sad,
|
To Papists endlesse shame.
|
Nor former age was ever bent,
|
Such Treasons strange for to invent,
|
And turne them to so ill intent:
|
To Papists endlesse shame.
|
The Treasons all, God hath bewraide,
|
Which Pope & Priests and Papists laide:
|
For God above is still our ayde,
|
To Papists endlesse shame.
|
These thirtie yeares no Traytors spight
|
Was wrought against the Gospels light,
|
Nor yet against our Soveraignes right,
|
To Papists endlesse shame.
|
But Steeven Garnet (voyde of grace)
|
Knew when, and how, and where the place
|
That Treasons plotting were apace,
|
To Papists endlesse shame.
|
He travaile did both farre and neare,
|
Like to a Woolfe and ravenous Beare,
|
To keepe poore silly soules in feare,
|
To Papists endlesse shame.
|
He hath seduced many a soule,
|
And in his Booke did them inroule,
|
To make them pay the Divell toule,
|
To Papists endlesse shame.
|
[?]lesse Priest which ever sought
|
[?]
|
For he to bring them in th[e] briers,
|
Hath sent part hence for to be Friers:
|
And trayterous seducing liers,
|
To Papistes endlesse shame.
|
The Women Nunes he hath ordayn'd,
|
Thinking thereby that he hath gain'd:
|
Their soules in Hell for to be chain'd.
|
To Papists endlesse shame.
|
His Pardons and his Buls are crost,
|
His Popish dignitie is lost:
|
His Reliques eke, to his great cost,
|
And Papists endlesse shame.
|
His holy Bones, and holy Stockes,
|
His holy Shirtes, and holy Smockes:
|
Are come unto the Hang-mans boxe,
|
To Papists endlesse shame.
|
His (Holinesse) pride is now puld downe,
|
Which Traytors lov'd in Citie & towne
|
Derricke (the Hang-man) hath his gowne
|
to Papists endlesse shame.
|
Now naught availes his holy Masse,
|
For time hath brought it so to passe,
|
That he is proovd worse then an Asse,
|
To Papists endlesse shame.
|
His Abbots, Priors, Monks, & Friers,
|
And other his religious squiers,
|
Have proov'd themselves all to be liers,
|
To Papists endlesse shame.
|
Their great Commaunder he is gone
