I. COme London Boys all, and listen to me, And the Papists now we will Convince, Then let the Bells Ring, while we merrily Sing, For to welcome the Protestant Prince. II. Let the Bonefires Burn, the Papists all turn, And their Wooden Gods all be pull'd down, Let the Churches all flourish, the Gospel to nourish, With great Joy to the Princes Renown. III. Then you Irishmen all, in Country and Town, Repent for the time that is past, For Tryconnel is taken, and his Laws are farsaken, And your Roguery is found out now at last.
IV. But let me advise you the best way I can, As I stand near Related to you; Your old Coats for to turn, & your Altars to burn, And to hang up your Jesuit Crew. V. For your downfall is come, and you shall receive Doom For we Protestants now do advance; And our brave Prince and we, will unite & agree For to drive Lewis King, out of France. VI. Let Shoomakers all pack up Knives and heel-Awl, For to joyn to an Universe Sum; Let's charge and let's prime, for we hope in Gods time For to give the Deaths Wound unto Rome.
VII. But first let the Glory and Praise be to God, Who hath wrought such a Miracle great; Their Delusions to spoil, and their Plots all beguile, Then rejoyce both in Church and in State. VIII. And now to the Instrument of this great work, Which the like was ne're before, nor since; Let's drink his Health round, with our knees to the ground For to wellcome this Protestant Prince. IX. And now to Conclude this my Protestant Song, Pray remember these Verses of mine; For Popery is pull'd down, both in Country and Town, And the Gospel in Splendour shall shine. X. With Peace, Mirth, and Plenty our Land will aboud And the Papists they all must go hence; For search the World round, there will scarcely be found Such another brave Protestant Prince. XI. If any one questions who made these few Lines? 'Tis my self, if I may you convince; Then let's merry be, and Il'e drink unto thee, A good Health to this Protestant Prince. XII. Then fill up the Glass, about let it pass, All our sorrows in Wine we will drown; Here is a good Health to that Commonwealth Whose Prince is come lately to Town.
