I. LOyal Souls, drink off your Wine, Whilst the Popish Crew repine, We will all our Voices join, With loudest Acclamation. Let each Soul drink off his Glass; None shall let a Brimer pass: No more Idols, no more Mass, To vex and plague the Nation.
II. We that Loyal are will sing, Long live William our great King; May he be blest in every thing, May all his Joys grow double. No Grief invade his Royal Breast, Nor with Sorrow be oppress'd. May he in all things still be bless'd, Both void of Care and Trouble.
III. He has well deserv'd a Crown, That laid his Life and Fortune down To save our Lives expos'd his own, Unto the greatest Danger. He ventur'd all to see us free, From Romes cruel Tyranny: Yet this all was done, you see, By this Heroick Stranger. IV. His Royal Consort, Heavens bless, With everlasting Happiness, Whilst we all our Joys Express, In drinking off Canary: Let briming Bouls go quickly about, We'll drink a Thousand Gallons out; We ne're will cease to drink and shout, And cry, God bless Queen Mary. V. Priests shall down, the Pope shall bleed, Since our Nation thus is freed, From the Babylonish Weed, By William, the brave Hero. France shall quake, The Pope shall leer; Teague shall run away for Fear, Curse his Fate and hang his Ear, And houle out Lero, Lero. VI. Come, here's a Health, I now begin, To our Gracious King and Queen, And to their long an happy Reign, To rule in Peace our Nation. Let them long enjoy the same, And put their Foes to open Shame: Aut let us not be laid i'th Blame, To cause the least Vexation.
