1. WHen Brewers and Bakers, And such Undertakers, Did settle the Church and the State; A fine Reformation Was made in the Nation, And little Things then became great. 2. A Rake-Helly Brewer, A Rogue I am sure, A Subtil one, when but a Boy; Yet that Politician Did get a Commission, The King and his Friends to destroy. 3. Which Thing he effected, And then was Elected By a People that call themselves Free, To be their Protector; Oh! then he did Hector, And was called his Highness O.P. 4. Those Times they were sad; But not half so bad In that, as in this Usurpation: Much Treasure was spent, But none of it sent To Holland, to beggar the Nation. 5. For in Oliver's Days, To his mighty Praise, The Fleet and the Army were pay'd; Our Merchants preserv'd, And no Man was starv'd, Or perish'd for want of a Trade. 6. But now in the Street, What Objects we meet Of Tradesmen, who beg for Relief; Whilst the Dutch at White Hall, From the English take all, By command of P.O. the Grand Thief. 7. Who his Father did rob, And the Nation did bob, And Swears by his Power and Might, That he is a Widgeon That matters Religion, Since Strength and Success gives a Right.
8. And for the dull English, He'll make 'em distinguish Between the long Robe and the Sword; And as he sees cause, He'll damn all the Laws, And govern by that of his Word. 9. By which we may see His Highness O.P. Was an Ass to his Highness P.O. For the brave Cavileer Sometimes he would spare, But the Jacobites all to Pot go. 10. So 'tis very plain, This damn'd cursed Reign Of the two is far the worst Evil, For Nose and the Dutch Will ruine all such That won't sell their Souls to the Devil. 11. If the House of Commons Had Souls like the Romans, Or Courage like Brave Sir John K--t, In spite of Dutch Boors They'd kick out of Doors The Usurper, and do the King right. 12. But the blessed Convention Is brib'd by a Pension, So nothing from them we can hope; Till Home Heaven does bring Our much injur'd King, Then all they can claim is a Rope. 13. And now I do think, time for to drink A Bumper, don't think it too much Man; the Restoration, And Peace to the Nation, Confusion likewise to the Dutchman.
