YOu Cow-hearted Citizens, what is your Damn'd pretence, To keep yourselves within your Beds, and not Fight for your Prince; Whose Majesty should you behold. your shames would breed your woe; And then (like Fools) you will cry out, Cuckolds all-a-Row. Ther's some of you, whose Bishops Lands do so much clogg your heels, That now you cannot sturr, whereas else, you would Run on Wheels: But yet I hope a time will come, when you shall be made know, And told unto your faces, that you are Cuckolds all-a-row. But yet for one most reverend Act, you are to be commended; That through your Rams-head zeal you have your brother Rump befriended. To set them in the Parliament house, their Wisdomes for to show; But they (and you) are all a like Cuckolds all-a-row. Yet I advise you, set this Rump. in Salt, for fear of Stinking; 'Twill fall unto the Divels share, because 'tis his by drinking: In spight of all their Acts, and Laws, Hee'l carry them down below Then Hell, and City, like to like, Cuckolds all-a-row.
I doubt, your Lambert is undone, and now he may goe Preach; For 'ts the English all a-moade, For every Rogue to Teach: Hee'l Nose it bravely in a Tub, to let the City know That they'l be Damn'd, unless they Dip, Cuckolds all a-Row. But where's your mighty Fleetwood now his Honour's worn to the Stump; Hee'l serve Ambassador to Hell, to make way for the Rump. And thus King-killers one by one will to the Devill go, Upon the City Asses backs, like Cuckolds all-a-row. And now Cow-hearts, look to your Shops, the Red-coats will you fright, And Plunder you, because they know your Horns hang in your light: No matter, for You have been the cause of all the Kingdoms Wo, And do deserve still to be call'd Cuckolds all-a-row. But if that you would honest grow, and doe a glorious thing; Which is, to Rowse and take your Armes and Fight for Charles your KING: Which Act your Credits will regain, and all the World shall know That you no more shall, then be cal'd Cuckolds all-a-Row.
