LEt loyal true Protestants both far and near Rejoyce at the welcome good tydings we hear, Our Gracious King William's return'd to his Throne, Whose valour and Conduct all Europe will own: Let Healths fairly pass now, and Bells sweetly ring, To welcome, in triumph, Great William our King. Our King to the Irish wars he did go, There for to engage with a powerful Foe; This never could daunt his most noble Design, But crav'd the assistance of Powers Divine: Let Healths fairly pass now, and Bells sweetly ring, To welcome, in triumph, Great William our King.
Our most Royal Prince in the midst of the fight When Bullets from Cannons were taking their flight: Good Angels around him his Person did guard, Protecting the life of our Soveraign Lord: Let Healths freely pass now, and Bells sweetly ring, To welcome in triumph, Great William our King. The French and the Tories he gave them their due, Who run, while our Monarch did after pursue: He Cities and Castles full many did clear, And they of his conquering Sword stood in fear: Let Healths freely pass now, and Bells sweetly ring, To welcome, in triumph, Great William our King.
And now having made such a Progress we find, To his brave Commanders the Care he resign'd; Who vow that the Irish Wars they'll maintain, While he to fair England's returned again: Let Healths Boys, go round, and the Bells sweetly ring At the safe Arrival, etc. As soon as King William was enter'd on Board, The Heavens was pleased in Love to afford A prosperous Gale, which did soon waft him o'er To the pleasant Coasts of the English Shore, Where Healths they went round, and the Bells they did ring To welcome home William our Soveraign King. As soon as he came to the Shore with his Fleet, Some thousands of People was joyful to meet Our Soveraign, who was with Victory Crown'd, While full flowing Bumpers went merrily round: The Cannons did fire, and Bells they did ring, At the safe Return, etc. Then Dukes, Lords, and Commons attended his Train, And wish'd him a long and a prosperous Reign; That ventur'd his Life for the sake of us all, When our Laws they stood tottering, ready to fall: Then drink about briskly, and let the Bells ring, At the happy Arrival, etc. Through every City and Town as he came, Eeach true Loyal heart did his Glory proclaim; All being transported with Raptures of Joy, For his Royal Presence all Grief did destroy: And Bumpers went round, while the Bells they did ring, At the happy Arrival, etc. The Famous Great City of London also, Their Loyalty likewise in order to show, From her Tower the Guns they did thunder and roar, To carry this joyful good Tydings all o'er: Then Bumpers went round, and the Bells they did ring, At the happy Arrival, etc. Being thus arriv'd from the sharp bloody Scene, To the Royal Court, then his Consort the Queen She did with unspeakable Joy him receive, Her Monarch, for whom she so often did grieve: Sweet Musick then play'd, and the Bells they did ring, To Welcome home William our Soveraign King.
