1. RIng bells, and let bonefires out-blaze the Sun, Let Ecchoes contribute their voice, For now a happy settlement's begun, To shew how we do all rejoyce: If we by this Can have the bliss To re-injoy a Unity, Wee'll do no more As heretofore, But will in mutual love increase; If we can once agen have peace How joyful shall we be? 2. The King shall his Prerogatives enjoy, The State their Privilege shall have, He will not Theirs, nor will they His anoy, But both each others strive to save: The people shall Turn loyal all And strive t' obey his Majesty, And truth and Peace Shall both increase, They'l be obedient to the Laws And hate that Subtle name of Cause. Then joyful shall we be. 3. The Parliament will rise no more in armes To fight against their lawfull King, Nor he deluded by their factious charms That all the Realm to treason bring: They'l learn to vote No more by rote Nor pass their Bills ex tempore, But study peace And trades increase, Since now we finde it is not good To write the Kingdomes Peace in blood, But joyfull shall we be. 4. The Coblers shall not edifie their Tubbs Nor in Divinity set stitches, Wee'l not b' instructed by Mechanick scrubs, Women shan't preach with men for breeches, The prickear'd Tribe That won't subscribe Unto our Churches Hierarchie Must England leave, And to Geneve, New England, or to Amsterdam, With all whom Church and State can't tame; Then joyfull, etc. 5. Wee'l toyl no more to maintain Patentees That feed upon poor peoples trade, Star Chamber shan't vex guiltless men for fees, Nor Law to Vice for bribes be Bawd: The Bishops each Will learn to preach, Rich Clergy will not silent be, And Judges all Impartial, When Lawes alike to all degrees, No sleeping Judges gape for fees. How joyful, etc.
6. Wee'l fight no more for Jealousies, and Fears, Nor spend our blood, we know not why; The Roundheads shall shake hands with Cavaliers, And both for King and Countrey die; The Sword shall not Maintain a Plot For fear of plots which ne're shall be, Nor will we still Each other Kill To fight for those that are as far From peace as they will be from war. But joyfull, etc. 7. The broken Citts no more shall lick their Chops, Nor wealth recruit with Country's store, But lay down armes, and keep within their Shops, And cry what lack you? as before; They'll turn agen, Blew aprond men, And leave their titles of degree, Nor will they prate Church, and State, But change their Feathers, Flags and Drums, For Items and the total Sums. How joyfull, etc. 8. We will not Garrisons of Lubbers feed, To plunder, drink, and gather pay, While they lye lazing, and are both agreed To fetch our goods and us away; And though they Swear, We will not care, Nor to such Skowndrells servile be; We will not stand, With Cap in hand, Beseeching them to let alone The goods which justly are our own. But joyfull, etc. 9. Fanatick Troupers must go home agen, And humbly walk afoot to plow, Nor domineer thus over honest men, But work to get their livings now; Or if their mind Be not inclin'd To leave their former Knavery, A halter shall Dispatch them all, And then the Gallows shall be made The high'st preferment of their trade. A joyfull sight to see. 10. Let Roundheads shake their circumcized ears, We'll ride about as well as they, Nor will we stand in fear of Cavaliers That sleep all night, and drink all day: When we can find Both sides enclin'd To change their War for Unity; O 'twill be brave, If we can have The Freedom granted by our Charter, And scape from plunder, pay, and quarter; How joyfull shall we be?
