1. THis is the Cabal of some Protestant Lords A forging the turne that not long since they had, Here W------n sitteth and searcheth Records to find Flaws in good Statutes, & varnish the bad. 2. This is the Lord Tony that slyly sits here Who to sham and contrive has never denyd And rather then the Good Cause shoud fall through his fear Hel let out Rebellion by broaching his side. 3. This is Popular Perkin that smirks and looks gay The women extols the Spark up to the sky, None danceth with so great a grace, as they say, Yet some body thinks that he capers too high. 4. Here flourishing E----- the tongue oth Gang With Rhetorical Artifice fancies fine things, First vainly composeth a taking Harangue then fosters a Villain in Libelling Kings. 5. Heres Docter Informant that ner woud stick out To traffick in Oaths or tell a State-Lye, Observe how he firks all the Jesuits about, First blaws on a Beuk, and so Papists God b--y. 6. Heres Wilmore thats troubld with scruples & stings His Citizens conscience is nice and demure, A Traytors Indicted for treasonable things, But he tells you tis false, hes a Protestant sure. 7. These are some sage Cytizens that you see there, Who out of their Zeal all our rights to maintain And to keep out all slavery, have taken a care to put up in the streets two Posts and a Chain.
8. These are some Apprentices that still do retain Some Tenets their Masters approve and allows, They come to direct a wise Monarch to Reign Instead of sweeping their shop and cleaning of shooes. 9. This is the Committee where greivance is scannd Which Remonstrates the danger that threatens the State Good service is here by suspicion Trapand And Allegiance is reckond Malignancy streight. 10. Hers the Synod of Saints that will sometimes refresh The failings of nature with means of their own. Theyl preach you the mortification of flesh With eyes up to Heaven and Breeches let down. 11. These are the Cabal of the Covenantiers That think they maintain the Religion the best By pulling down Churches and their Overseers And routing the Defender of Faith with the rest. 12. These are the Remains of the Levelling Rump That stink in the House and fresh Commons annoy, And least the right James shoud be turnd up for Trump They cry out, a Court Card will their gaming destroy. 13. That Lumber of Trumpery buzzing about Are silly Subscribers that come at first dash, To make up a large Petitioning rout Of Link-boys and all such true Protestant trash. 14. These there are the Hucksters that Treason retail, Theyl sell you a sheet with a penniworth in t; Thats Courantier Care that never will fail to scribble, whilst Langly dares Publish and Print. 15. Thats the Club of a Pack of ingenious friends that made Charles a Scotch Pedlar in the Rare show, And I hope that our Monarch to make them amends will give them a Yard of St. Johnstons or two,
Printed for A.B. 1681.
