NOw he in the West is Landed, whom we have expected long, Tracing Famous Alexander, with an Army stout and strong: Trumpets sounding, and Drums beating Bullets flying too and fro, And the Romans still expecting when to have their Overthrow. Now they must to Purgatory, to be Purged of their Sins, Father Petres shall go before them, [to] make room to let them in:
Lord Jefferys shall be their Chancellor, to decide their wrongful Cause, And the Pope must grant them Pardon, for Transgressing this our Laws. No Historian ever Penned such strange Wonders done before, Within two Months three Nations Conquer'd, all that Idols did adore. Now the Triple Crown is Totter'd, and is shaking too and fro, And a Peace falls without Fighting, like the Walls of Jerico.
Where's our Beads and Crucifixes? where's our Holy Waters now? Will they not free us from Destruction, to whom so often we did bow? Where's our Plots and Counter-Plotting to destroy the Heretick Sheep, Where's our Jesuits running trotting, wond'ring how to escape the Deep. Orange is bitter in the tasting, but for Health is very good, There had some thousands lain a bleeding, as the Wise have understood. Had not the Nobles of our Nation, on this Cure cast a smile, And brought Orange o're the Ocean, to be planted in our Isle. And when Orange Prince was landed, with several Lords of high degree, Then the Nation stood amazed, wond'ring what the Effect would be;
Then soon their Plot it was discover'd, when the Game did once begin, And the Snare for us prepared, they themselves did fall therein, Romish Errors in our Nation, now of late crept in amain, And a dark Cloud was like to cover our true light that still remains. But on the fourteenth of October, the bright Son did hide its Head, Which I saw was a fore-runner of some great ones banished. In the Western Equinoctial, two Religions stood awhile, But the Ballance gave distinction, lest one the other should beguile. But the one on false foundation, brought dishonour and disgrace, And Babylons abomination, must no longer here take place.
