I. WHen Anne, a Princess of Renown, Sat on the British Throne, The Britains many Battles fought, And many Battles won. 2. The Queen had Generals good store, And these were Men of Might; But none excell'd the Stanhope brave In Counsel or in Fight. 3. The brave Stanhope was he she sent to Spain, with full Command, And bid him fall upon the French, And beat them out of hand. 4. No sooner had she said the Word, But he was out of Sight, And hasted unto Charless Camp, With all his Speed and Might. 5. "Most Noble Prince, I come (saith he) Annas full Command. "The Empress bade me fight your Foes, beat them out of hand. 6. "Brave Stanhope, (saith the King) I know Valour to be great: "It's fit thy Empress be obey'd, act what seemeth meet. 7. "With Spanish and with German Troops Britains joined be: "Led on by such a General, sure of Victory. 8. Then Stanhope bow'd, and went away, Being full of inward Joys, And to his British Squadrons cries, Horse, To Horse, my Boys.
9. "The Day's our own, the King gives Leave French to make Attacks: "Come, follow me, we'll ne're give o're we see their Backs. 10. Then strait, with glittering Sword in hand, And Pistols by each Side, He gallops towards th' Enemy, As fast as he can ride. 11. The bold Britains their General, In Danger, won't forsake; But Stanhope follow, in a Croud, And direful Havock make. 12. In various Shapes, where Stanhope moves, Slaughter and Death appear: The French no longer can his Rage, Nor furious Onsets, bear. 13. To save themselves, they first give back, Then hasten from the Field; And to victorious Stanhopes Troops A bloody Victory yield. 14. Brave Stanhope close the Fugitives Pursues with Might and Main. The Fields, the Roads, the Lanes are fill'd With Heaps of Soldiers slain. 15. The Battle now being won and o're, To Charles the new made King, Great Staremberg the brave Stanhope, Besmear'd with Blood, doth bring. 16. "This, Sir,'s the Man hath done the Deed, mighty Valour shown. Quoth Charles, "I know it very well; him I owe my Crown. "By
(2) 17. "By you, Sir, I am King of Spain, "And of my French Foes rid: "I will reward you like a King; with me to Madrid. 18. Whom then, you Men of Westminster, For Burgess can you chuse, Like him who Spain from Frenchmens Pride And Thraldom has set loose. 19. Like him, who for all those that trade In Cloath, in Stuffs, in Bays, To Spain, To Spain, has op'd the Way, To his immortal Praise. 20. The Gold and Silver of Peru, Of which the Trade was lost, And which was daily sent to France, To Britains Grief and Cost, 21. Shall now from Cales and Alicant In English Oaks be brought:
Such Glorious Things has Stanhope done, Such Wonders he has wrought! 22. You then who live near River Thames, Near Abby, or Mill-Bank, St. James, St. Anne, the Park, or Strand, Of mean or highest Rank, 23. Don't be ingrate, to one who for His Country takes much Pains, In Places far and wide, but last In Saragossas Plains. 24. But in the Precincts every where Let it be understood You value most the Men who do Your Nation the most Good. 25. Let Neighbouring Cities know likewise That you have Wit and Brains; And won't prefer to brave Stanhope, A Man that selleth Grains.
