ABout the time that I shall be Joyned unto 2 times 3. And 4 times 10 with 4 times 2 Amongst us shall be great ado. An Eagles Head that time shall fall, Scattered will be the young ones all. 1647. 1648. Then shall a Cypher swell so great, His Name 100 takes the Seat, And shall do mighty things before He is removed off the Shore. But 10 times 4 with 8 times 6, Doth in another World him fix. Oliver Cromwel. 1658. Then quickly after you shall spy, The Eagle back again to fly, And shall himself bedeck again, With Feathers of his Fathers Train. Then heavy Times shall make men say, Oft-times alas and welladay, And wish that they a Death might find, For somthing troubles sore their Mind. Then after all a Cloud shall come, And almost darken quite the Sun. And in that time Actions shall be Chiefly carried on by three. The Cross, the Surplise, and the Crown, Strive who shall put each other down. Great Treachery and Bloodshed then Shall sweep away great store of Men. The Lion and blue Flower shall seek Quite to destroy the Heretick Sheep. And England shall be hard bestead, Before the Miter hence be rid. False Ireland contrives our woe, But zealous Scotland doth not so.
Begin again at 1 and 6, And 10 times 7 begins these Tricks. 1677 And for a time shall last full sore, Till you may number 1 and 4. 1681. And for 4 more it shall abate, To return in an happy state. 1685. Then better every day will be, But no more ------ in England see. When 8 times 8 and 3 times 3, With 6 and 1 shall joyned be, Then shall be sacrificed C. In dust shall lye that arrant Whore, Disdain'd of all like to J--- S--- And all her Brats turn'd out of dore. J.R. shall into Saddle slide, And furiously to Rome shall ride, His Principles no longer hide. The Pope shall have a fatal Fall, And never trouble more Whitehall, Nor Englands People more inthrall. And he that chanceth to survive, Until the year of eighty five, Shall see this Land begin to thrive. 1680. O Englands wonder, which hath never been, 3 Q------ in England shortly shall be seen! 2 D------ shall highly for the Crown contend, Each shall bring Englands Monarchy to end. B--------- shall fall into contempt and scorn, And Gospel-Angels shall our Church adorn. If any ask, how this shall come to pass, The Fox shall ride the Goose, the Goose the Ass.
