| The Loyal London Prentice: / Being his Constant Resolution, to hazard his / Life and Fortune for his KING. / With his Defiance to Popery and Faction. / I'le plainly make it to appear, / That I'm a True Born Cavaleir, / And here my Colours have Display'd, / 'Gainst all the Factious that Invade. / I wear this Ribbond in my Hatt, / For all the Whiggs to wonder at, / Let none then Tax my Loyalty, / My King I'le serve until I dye. | |
