IF Men are deem'd for Loyalty As Traytors to their Prince, No wonder if Impiety Should gain Pre-eminence. When those of Merit are displac'd And worthless Wretches rise, Vertue will soon be in Disgrace, And Vice assume the Prize. Great ORMOND who of late did shine Like Sol in this our Sphere, Seems now eclipsed for a Time, To shine again more clear. These Earth-born Sons may Interpose, And Cloud this Orb a-while, But Heaven will all the Cheat disclose, And on this Planet smile. ORMOND who no Addition wants, To make his Soul compleat, Won't basely cringe for further Grants, To make himself less Great. Poor Minds may stoop to Things that's base, But this Heroic Soul Derives his Greatness from his Race, Train'd up in Honour's School. He always fought with a Design To do his Country Right, His Sovereign would not undermine, To heap up Millions by't. His Prince's Councils ne'er betray'd, To please a Dalela Nor others Provinces invade, To rise by Infamy. He never Voted for a Bill, to please the Populace, Bring forty Votes against it still, Because it should not pass. No B------r T------y ever made, To magnifie the Dutch, And ruin his own Country's Trade, That carress'd him so much. Nor ever yet did go about, Or send his haughty Wife
To Closet Members for to Vote Him General for Life. He ne'er oppos'd Her Majesty, Whose Right it was to fill A Regimental Vacancy, When She declar'd for Hill. No base Deductions ever made From Foreign Troops Abroad, Nor fed upon his Soldiers Bread, Such Baseness he abhorr'd. Ne'er rob'd a General of his Right, His Honour, or his Fame, To load a fawning Parasite, That cou'd not act the same. Contingent Moneys he applies Unto its proper Uses, Not let the French for want of Spies Decamp, then form Excuses. No Foreign Banks his ill-got Wealth Their Credit does maintain, Nor sneak Abroad to screen himself, And save his sinking Fame. Ingratitude ne'er fill'd his Breast, Nor found an Entrance there, Ne'er rob'd his Monarch of her Rest, In hopes to fill the Chair. No vile tumultuous Monsters bent To show their Rage and Spleen, Made up of Nature's Sedement, Were led in Pomp by him. To trample on that Royal Dust Which made him what he is, Nor e'er betray'd his Nation's Trust, To raise its Enemies. No Righteous Judges e'er displac'd, To gratifie his Pride, For Voting once against His Grace, Must now be laid aside. Let Souls deprav'd thus grasp the Air, The empty Bubble prize, ORMOND moves in a nobler Sphere, His Actions reach the Skie.
