(I.) BRave Colledge is Hangd, the Chief of our hopes, For pulling down Bishops, and making New Popes; Our dear Brother Property crawls on the Ground, In Poland, K--- Anthony nere will be Crownd: For now their resolvd, that Harts shall be Trump, And the Prentices Swear, they will Burn the Old Rump. (II.) Brave Colledge, both Champion and Carver of Laws, Who dyed undaunted, and stuck to the Cause; What mischief might thou, to the Godly have done Had thy dareing Soul, dreaded the World to come? And all thy dear Party to dainger exposd, If thou to the World, had thy secrets disclosd. (III.) But now thou art Hangd, and that fear is past, Were all thats in question as safe in the Nest; Then we some new means, might consult or contrive, To drive on our purpose, to prosper or thrive: But the Popish PLOT, has now quite lost its Name, And none thy bright Blunderbush dare to maintain. (IV.) What K--- but Great Colledge, could ere make a Pope Tho he was ore ruld by the end of the Rope? Great Colledge, was certainly Jure Divino, When the Tripple Crown, on the Popes Head did Shino. He burnt him to Ashes, for pastime like Nero Then strait made a new one, such Power had our Hero. (V.) Great Colledge, must certainly dye a good Martyr, Being Knight of the Halter, and above the Garter; Our dear Brother States-man, tho bred in a Saw-pit, Had Internal Genious, enough to orethrow Wit: He framd a new Moddel, to limit the K---, In hopes Crown and Sceptre, might truckle to him. (VI.) Great Britain, nere bred such a Brother as Colledge, He made Seven Popes, in his Time on our knowledge; Our Signals of Crimes, he put in the Popes Armes, Which prudent Contrivance, our Function Alarms. With threats in Petition, Kings Power to restrain, Yet Towser, and Broomstaff, rides Admiral again.
(VII.) Great Hanibals Conquest, nor Olivers Nose, Could with such small Slaughter, subdue such great Foes, As he in this three years, with help of our Party, Hath checkt our three Kingdoms and Magnae Carta. The Head of our Church, and the Head of our Cause, He would have maintaind them by Perjury and Blows. (VIII.) He now may be calld, a third Saviour oth Nation, To save his dear Church, he Renounced Salvation; Like Famous Cargile, he dyd for King Jesus, Defying Church Idols, enough to amaze us: He tyd up together, both his and our Crimes, And dyd like a Devil, to damp our Designes. (IX.) Our Case toth Carrecter-men, we must refer To Shadwell, and Settle, to Curtis, and Carr. To know who Succeeds, our Late Captain the Joyner, He must be an Artist, some Carver, or Coyner, To make our Solemnity, and some New Popes, On which our dependency, hangs and our hopes. (X.) But when the time comes, that the Pope must be burnd I fear we shall finde that the Tide is much turnd? For the Tory Party, hath got so much ground, To Head a Rebellion theres none will be found; For now theyr Resolved that Harts shall be Trump, And the Prentices Swear, theyl burn the Old Rump. (XI.) Such a confused Monster, they swear theyl Compose Of all the Dissenters, that are the Kings Foes; The Baptist, and Biter, the Pendant, and Quaker, From which they will draw such a prodigious Creature: More Diabolical Invective Far, Then all Popes Solemnitys at Temple-Barr. (XII.) Our Common-Councel lets Summon together, To Pannel packt Jurys, Lets makt our endeavour, For an Habeus Corpus, insist on our Power; To fetch our Great Patriots out of the Tower; And then wele Dispute the Case, for Reformation, And make the Proud Torys Resign us the Nation
