A S we was a ranging upon the salt Seas, For France and for Spain , our humours to please, But when we came there, the first news that we hear Was, you Rebels of England what do you do here? When we was a walking along in the street, Both Men, Wifes and Children, and all we did meet, They gathered up stones, and at us did sling, Cryed Rebels of England you murther'd your King.
All this being odious unto our own heart, Then from the French we were forc'd to depart; The French did deride us with scornful disdain, We hoised our Top sail and sailed for Spain . But when we came there, we'd not set foot on Land, But strait they perceiv'd that we were English Men, With their hands on their Rapiers their Cloathes off did fling, Crying Rebels of England , you murther'd your King.
All this being odious unto our Conceits, We hoised and hastened up into the Straits ; Next Port unto Venice intending to go, Not fearing nor dreading they did of it know. But when we came there, our ships they did scan, They saw by our Colours we were English Men, O they laugh'd in their Lingo , and at us did sleer; You Rebels of England what do you do here?
Thus twenty years wandring from Sea-port to Town, In all parts abused, resolv'd to turn home: We steer'd up for London , But when we came there, The Court all in Mourning put us in dispair. Then Great Charles of England we found was interr'd And some known Offenders in Mourning appear'd; Who for some Years together had design'd and swore To serve him as they did his Father before. Great James of his Birth-right they sought to depose. But now for ten Guineas you'l find none of those King James is Established safe in his Throne, And none shall invade the just Rights of the Crown. And now we're resolved In England to stay, And wait for to serve, and our King to obey, And his Royal Consort, Queen Maries blest Name: And we'l drive both the French and the Dutch o're the Main.
