A / BALLAD. / The Third Part, To the same Tune. / Written by a Lady of Quality. / The Plot is vanish'd like to a bashfull Sprite, / Which with false flashes, Fools could only fright. / The wise, (whose clearer Souls can penetrate,) / Find's shadows drawn before Intrigues of State. / God bless our King, the Church, and Nation too, / Whil'st perjur'd Villains have what is their due. | |
