WHat Booker can Prognosticat? or speak of our Kingdoms present state? I think my self to be as wise, ae he that most looks in the Skies: My skil goes beyond the depths of the Pond, or River in the greatest Rain: By thee which I can tell, that all things wil be well, when the King comes home in peace again, There is no Astrologer, then I say, can search more deep in this then I, To give you a reason from the Stars, what causeth peace, or civil Wars: The man in the Moon, may wear out his shoone, in ru[n]ning after Charles his Wain, But all to no end, for the times they will mend when the King comes home in peace again. Though for a time you may see White-Hall, with cob-webs hanging over the wal, Instead of silk, and silver brave, as formerly it used to have: In every Roome, the sweet perfume, delightful for that Princely-Train, The which you shal see, when the time it shall be, that the King comes home in peace again. Full fourty years the Royal Crown, hath been his Fathers and his own, And I am sure thers none but he hath right to that soveraignity: Then who better may the Scepter to sway, then he that hath such right to reign: The hopes of your peace, for the wars will then cease, when the King comes home in peace again. Till then upon Ararats-hill, my hopes shal cast her Anchor still; Until I see some peaceful Dove, bring home the branch, which I do love; Still will I wait till the waters abate. which most disturbs my troubled brain, For Ile never rejoyce, till I hear that voice, that the King comes home in peace again, Oxford and Cambridge shal agree, crowned with honour and dignitie, Learned men shall then take place, and bad men silenced with disgrace: Theys know it then to be a shameful strain, that hath so long disturbed their brain. For I can surely tell, that all things shal go wel when the King comes home in peace again.
Church Government shal setled be, and then I hope we shal agree; Without their help whose high-brain-zeal have long disturbd our Common-well: Greed out of date, and Coblers that do prate, of Wars that stil disturbd their brain, The which you shal see when the time it shal be that the King comes home in peace again. Tho many men are much in debt, and many Shops are to be set; A golden time is drawing near, men shal take Shops to hold their Ware: And then all our Trade shal flowrish alamode, the which ere long we shal obtain: By the which I can tell all things will be wel, when the King comes home in peace again. Maidens shal enjoy their Maike, and honest men their lost estates Women shal have what they do lake, their husbands who are coming back. When the Wars have an end, then I and my frie[nd] all Subjects freedom shal obtain, By the which I can tell, all things will be well, when we enjoy sweet peace again: Though people now walk in great fear, alongst the Countrye every where, Theeves shal then tremble at the Law, and justice shall keep them in aw; The Frenches shal flee with their treacherie, and the Kings foes a shamed remain, The which you shal see, when the time it shal be, that the King comes home in peace again. The Parliament must willing be, that all the world may plainly see, How they do labour still for peace, that now these bloody Wars may cease: For they will gladly spend their lives, to defend the King in all his right to reign, So then I can tell all things will be well, when we enjoy sweet peace again. When all these things to pass shall come, then farewell Musket, Pick and Drum, The Lamb shal with the Lyon feed, which were a happy time indeed; O let us all pray, we may see the day, that peace may govern in his name, For then I can tell all things will be well, when the King comes home in peace again.
GOD SAVE THE KING, AMEN.
