HArk how the Huzza's go round in this happy joyful day; The Royal blest pair are Crown'd, constitut'd both in Severaign Sway: See, see how the Nation is pleas'd, our Rights now again are our own The Protestant Church is rais'd, and Popery now must down. The King like the Sun doth shine amidst the bright dazlin Train; His glorys are so divine, [each grace does his] worth proclaim,
How happy our Nation will be, now Jove is possest of the Crown, From Tyranny now we are free, and Popery must go down. Queen Mary, the Nations delight, the flower of our English Faith, Her looks are divinely bright, each grace of a Queen she hath: So nobly and nimbly she moves beneath the blest weight of her Crown. The Protestant people she loves and Popery now must down.
THe Lords and the Ladies attend, like Stars on the Sun and Moon; Each Meteor his light doth extend, to set forth our glorious Noon; Whilst Papists with envy behold King William confirm'd in his Throne, Who has their designs controul'd, and pluckt all their Popery down. Now England advance thy head, and see thou art greatly blest; Thy foes do thy Justice dread; thy Rights are all repossest. Brave Prince, to redeem all our land, and frighten the priests from the Throne 'Twas by thy dread war-like hand vile popery was pluckt down. No more shall the priests invade our Liberties or our Laws; Their Agents are all betray'd, we've ruin'd the popish cause: We'l be not by Babylon rul'd, no Perkin shall come to the Crown; The Nation no more will be fool'd, for popery must go down. God bless the great William our King, long happily may he Reign, His foes to subjection bring, and peace through the land maintain, That all the whole Nation may be as happy as e'er it was known, From Romes evil strategems free, now popery is pluckt down. God bless Royal Mary our Queen, may she ever fruitful prove; All Blessings attend her Reign, her Prince and her peoples love May Heaven encrease and compleat, the glory and joy of the Crown; May Jesuits fall at her feet; thus may she tread popery down.
