[1] AH Cruel Bloody Fate! What canst thou now do more? Ala[s]s! tis now too late Poor Toney to restore: Why should the flattering Fates persuade, That Toney still should live, In England here, Or in Holland there, Yet all our hopes deceive. [2] A Noble Peer He was, And of Notorious Fame; But now Hes gone (alass!) A Pilgrim ore the Main: The Prop and Pillar of our hope The Patron of our CAUSE, The Scorn and Hate Of Church and State, The Urchin of the Laws. [3] Of matchless Policy Was this Renowned Peer, The bane of Monarchy, The Peoples Hope and Fear, The Joy of all True-Protestants, The Tories Scorn and Dread; But now Hes gone Who curst the Throne, Alass! poor Toneys dead. [4] For Commonwealth He stood, Pretending Liberty; And for the Publick Good Would pull down Monarchy: The Church and State he would divorce, The Holy CAUSE to wed: And in time did hope To confound the Pope, To be himself the Head. [5] A TAP ins side he bore, To broach all sorts of Ill, For which Seditious Store The Croud adord him still: He spit his Venom through the Town, With which the Saints possest, Would preach and prate Gainst Church and State, While He performd the rest.
[6] When any change of State, Or Mischief was at hand, He had a working Pate, And Devil, at command: He forgd a PLOT, for which the Heads Of Faction gave their Votes; But now the PLOT Is gone to pot, What will become of Oates? [7] Under the fair pretence Of Right, Religion, Law, Excluding the True Prince, The Church would overthrow: With such Religious Shams he brought The Rabble on his side; And, for his sport, The Town and Court In Parties would divide. [8] Now whats become of all His squinting Policy, Which wrought your Dagons Fall, From Justice forcd to flie? Old and Decrepid, full of pains, As he of Guilt was full: He fell to Fate, And now (too late) He leaves us to condole. [9] Now, learn ye Whigs in time, By his deserved Fall, To expiate his Crime, Er Fate revenge you all; For Rights, Religion, Liberty, Are but the Sham-pretence To Anarchy; But Loyalty Obeys the Lawful Prince:
