Treason Unmasqued,
OR
Truth brought to Light,
TO A PLEASANT NEW TUNE, etc.
When Loyalty depressed lay,
And the dark Night took place of Day;
When deep Caballs, took place of State
And States-men sought to ruin State,
Then England's Genious, did disclose
Where Treason lurk'd, and shew'd it's Foes.
|
NOw at last the Riddle is Expounded,
|
Which so long the Nation has Confounded,
|
For the Round-head;
|
Begins the Game agen,
|
Which so well, they play'd in Forty Four
|
And in greater hope:
|
That the Damn'd Sham-PLOT, will ne're be o'er
|
Till Piously they routed King and Pope.
|
Shaftsbury, that Worm of Reformation
|
Who for Common-wealth has lay'd Foundation;
|
Which the Nation,
|
So hotly do pursue:
|
Is justly now rewarded in the Tower,
|
For his Merrits due,
|
But when his busy head, is once lay'd lower
|
Then will appear the Plots he did pursue.
|
Perkin, makes fine Leggs toth' shouting Rabble,
|
Who to make him King, he thinks are Able
|
But the Bauble,
|
Is only chose for Use;
|
The silly Idiot, serves but for a Tool still
|
For Knaves to work their Feats:
|
And remains a dull inciped Fool still,
|
For all their Damn'd Caballs, and Wapping Treats.
|
The most zealous Parliament Denoted,
|
Who for publick good Devoutly Voted,
|
Pray note it,
|
That the Duke shall ne're be King;
|
And like Faithfull honest Loyal Subjects,
|
His Majesty Implore:
|
To Signe their Godly and Religious projects,
|
Or else the threatned King shall Reign no more.
