KING. MY most Royal Lady, I now must away, In this fair Princely Court I no longer will stay; Being freely resolved my Foes to persue, Till the Rights of three Kingdoms I fairly renew, And my Valliant Brave Army with me will advance, For to curb and subdue the Vain-glory of France.
QUEEN. Great William, my Monarch, how can I forbear, For to shew the sad simptoms of sorrow and care; When to sharp Bloody Fights, thou Sail'st over the Main, And I cannot be sure I shall see thee again, In those desperate Wars there is Hazard I know, Unto which my Great Soveraign Lord thou must go.
KING. Let no fear of Danger e'er trouble thy mind, For, I hope, my true Conquering Boys I shall find, Bravely Arm'd with true Courage my Foes to cut down, Who opposes the Royal true Protestant Crown, Valliant Collonels and Captains with me will advance, Now to curb and subdue the Vain-glory of France. Queen. The Kingdom is Poison'd by Treacherous Rome. And too many there are who daily presume Now to lay their black Treasons against Church and State Quite forgetting how they were deliver'd of late, Thus the Nation is pestured with Villians I know, Yet my Royal Great Soveraign Lord thou must go. KING. Alas! I acknowledge such Villains there be, That endeavour to Plot against true Dignity, Yet on GOD's Divine Providence cast all thy care, And thy Enemies then will be catcht in the snare, Therefore, Lady, be patient while I do advance, For to blast and subdue the Vain-glory of France. QUEEN. Alas! when I think of the vast Ocean wide, Where the dangers of death are on every side, And the sharp bloody Battels where Cannons do roar, While the best of Commanders lyes reaking in gore, Oh! thoughts of these sorrows will grieve me I know, Yet my Royal great Soveraign Lord thou must go. KING. Sweet Lady it is not a Battel I fear, For that GOD that preserv'd me when first I came here, Will defend me from Dangers on every side, While I valiantly conquer the Catholick Pride, By a valliant brave Army who now will advance, For to blast and subdue the Vain-glory of France. QUEEN. My Prayers up to Heaven I'll constantly send, That the blessed sweat Angels may guard and defend, Thy dear life from the mallice of insolent foes, Who, in Flanders, thy glory and honour oppose, For in sharp bloody Fights there is danger I know, Unto which my great Soveraign Lord thou must go. KING. He with a Rich Jewel presented the Queen, And declaring that he the next morning did mean For to part with the Court and the Queen for a while, Then presented a kiss with a most Royal smile, Heavens bless thee sweet Queen while I now do advance, For to blast and subdue the Vain-glory of France.
