1. OH! Heavenly Calm thou merit'st praise, Besides thou hast lasted now nine days, And may I hope a longer space, Thunder Clashing. 2. The City too is now becalm'd, Their Threats are unto Mourning turn'd, Their pointed Push is now adjourn'd, And kept from Lashing. 3. But their Libels fly to every Shire, As thick as Atomes in the Air, To ripen all their Brethren there, For new Rebellion. 4. This Disappointment makes them Itch, Their Limbs are crampt with the old Stich, Like Dogs in Strings, they Snarl and Twitch, Then lye to Spawn. 5. The Doctor's busie now at work, With his new Knights o'th' Post i'th' dark, As Noah with all the World in's Ark, He's Catechizing. 6. The Badger's buckling up his Legs For the next Summer, peeps through the Hedge, And hopes there's Brood in all the Eggs, That are Baptizing. 7. The Tribe compos'd of Jew and Turk, And Irish Tories of great worth, Stand like a solemn Holding forth, Conning their Lessons. 8. The Senate swarms like cast out Bees, And squoils like Rooks i'th' tops of Trees, Their Nests as near each other lyes, Plotting Petitions. 9. Striving still to rouze the Rout, With many a dangerous senceless Doubt, And make them ready to help out, When Lying fails 'um. 10. Pretended Griefs they do devise, And Judas-like their Looks disguise, Beg for redress upon their knees, When nothing ayls 'um.
11. Fears of the French they do deplore, The native Papists ten times more, Yet still to keep their Soveraign poor, They do endeavour. 12. This shews that they no credit give To what they would have him believe, This begging's for Prerogative, Sir under favour. 13. But when it comes, great comfort brings, Poor Subjects Slaves, and Members Kings, But Heaven, I hope, stops such damn'd things, Rebels be quiet. 14. Or by that Loyalty I swear, Which to my Soveraign Prince I bear, I'le tell the World what Rogues you are, Can you deny it? 15. Come never threaten to Rebel, Nor damn your Souls to stingy Hell, After your Bones are basted well, You must be Conquer'd. 16. Think not on forty one, nor eight, That President gives us such light, Tho' few dare speak, yet all dare fight, Till you be hamper'd. 17. Let not your guilt o'th' guiltless fall, Nor Loyal Prelates Papists call, As if all were Rebels like you all, But Papists. 18. Trust not too much to Tonys Wit, Because the Devil Licens'd it, To draw you all into this Fit, Frenzy and Apish. 19. If he like Luxemburg with's Art, Should let the Devil spoil his part, His Wit is all not worth a F--- Then where's his Followers? 20. Mouthe not so much against the Duke, Nor feed black hopes with vain dispute, What God decrees none can confute, Nor Tony Hollowers.
