I. HAil to London fair Town All hail to the Mayor & the Shrievs; Hail to the Scarlet Gown, Whose Sentence our Patience grieves: Justice and Law have prevaild, With PATIENCE a Verdict to find, Gainst Patience, whose conscience faild; Oh Patience! why art so blind? II. PATIENCE, the joy of the Town, The comfort and hope of the Crowd; PATIENCE, who got Renown, By Perjury, Lies and Fraud: PATIENCE who ner had the Heart His Sovereigns Rights to maintain; But Patience he had the Art To Swear and Forswear again. III. PATIENCE for Church and for State, And Patience for Meetings by stealth; PATIENCE, who woud translate The State to a Commonwealth: Whose Zeal has his Patience betrayd, To lie for the Saints in distress; Nay, tho hes Forsworn, (tis said,) He Swore he could do no less. IV. PATIENCE, whose Zeal did contrive The Monument Figures and Spire, That while theres a Papist alive We may not forget the Fire: The Pillory now is his Lot, He has raisd such a flame with his Crew, That London is now too hot; Oh Patience! where art thou now?
V. PATIENCE for Zeal to the Cause, Did preach to the Captives in Goal; Patience, with great applause, Gave large to an Hospital: To USE now his Money may lend, For Pomfret hel never more stand, Nor Warrants for Tories send, Tplease Titus oth Perjurd Band. VI. PATIENCE with Coller of Brass, To woful Disasters did fall; Patience with Copper Face, And a Conscience worse than all; To Holland, to Holland he goes; For plainly now it appears, (That in spight of all Whiggish Laws,) Ignoramus cant save his Ears. VII. Some say that the Saints may not Swear, But Lie evn as much as they can; Yet Patience in spight ons Ears, Will Swear and Forswear again: That Patience should be so far lost, Alass! who with Patience can hear? That a Saint should be Knight oth Post, And an Elder without an Ear. VIII. Let evry good Subject with Me, Who Patience a Virtue doth praise, Lest he fall into Perjury, With Patience pray for Grace. But now I with Patience have done, Left with Patience I keep such a Rout, That astray more with Patience run, And weary your Patience out.
Printed in the Year of the Saints Tribulation, 1683.
