Queen. WHen Royal William of Renown, had pass'd the sharp and bloody Scene, And rode in Triumph to the Town, for to behold his gracious Queen: Then the Nobles all rejoyced, likewise did the Queen amain; Said she, A Blessing I'm possessing, to behold my Lord again. The French and Rebels felt thy Rage, which Catholicks did not deny; They were not able to engage, but did before the Army flye:
When this happy News came over, Subjects they rejoyc'd amain, And I a Blessing am possessing, to behold my Lord again. King. Said he, My Army fierce and bold, did scorn the proud insulting Foe, Fighting like noble Hearts of Gold, and did the best of Courage show; Running on like Men undaunted, that the Coast they soon might clear, When as they fir'd Foes retir'd, being all possess'd with Fear.
We thro' the River Boyne did wade, then having gain'd the other shore, The Teagues in reeking Gore we laid, they never see the like before; Horse and Foot were both Couragious, charging both the Front and Rear, And as we fir'd, Foes retir'd, being then possess'd with Fear. Queen. My Royal Lord, the Queen reply'd thou wast expos'd to Dangers there, Where Shot did flye on e'ery side, 'twas Providence thy Life did spare. In the midst of all the Battel, where some Hundreds then lay slain: It is a Blessing I'm possessing, to behold my Lord again. King. It's true my Army won the day, our Foes on us their Backs they turn'd, Yet Schombergh falling in the Fray, for him I highly was concern'd:
Oh! that thrice Renowned Heros, who hath ventur'd Life and Limb; Tho' he expir'd when they fir'd, France shall dearly pay for him. Queen. That sudden sad surprizing News, did grieve thy Loyal Subjects here, Likewise the Senses to amuse, that few forbear to shed a Tear: Likewise noble Collonel Walker at the River Boyne was slain, Yet here's a Blessing I'm possessing, to behold my Lord again. Lay by thy weary Armour bright, and take thy Scepter, Crown, and Ball And with thy Nobles take Delight, thou art King, and Lord of all; As thou on the Throne art feared, thy Friends with a happy Reign, And here's a Blessing I'm possessing, to behold my Lord again.
