TO our once Loyal Town, is lately come down, Such an Hodge-podge of Benchers, as never wore Gown: Saints, fit for the Legend of Romes Pseudo-Martyrs, Who have Pawn'd th' Old Religion, to Purchase New Charters; To promote Publick Faith, they are zealously bent, And Bugger Geneva, to Fructifie Trent. When Satan was squeamish, and long'd for a Dainty, The Pope Fricasseed him this new Four-and-twenty. (2) The first a State-Jocky, bred up of a Groom, 'Twixt a Colchester-Mare, and a Stallion of Rome: He Cants when at Hollets, on Hopkins his Metre, And drops Pater-Nosters with Lowick and Petre: Thus he Banters Non-Cons with Prophane Masquerade, And Quacks on the Gospel to force a lost Trade. When Satan was squeamish, etc. (3) The next Cacafugo, once a Captain of Peace, At the sight of cold Iron he melts in his grease; Yet he looks Indignation, and huffs like an Hector; He Whores like an Abbot, and Drinks like a Rector. The third Nicodemus, a Seeker by Night; The fourth Father Whitebread, who Halts for new Light. When Satan was squeamish, etc. St. (4) The fifth and the sixth, two precise Renegades; The one Jack of Diamonds, and the other of Spades: For Orphans and Widows, they beautifie Cloysters, And swallow their Houses, as a Barnacle Oysters; But no Dish so fit, when his Holiness treats, As an *Oleopodrido of Zealots and Cheats. When Satan was squeamish, etc. B. & A. [*A] great Italian Dish. (5) Next formal Sir Foplin, who often has slunk, With a Tester at Roses to Purchase a Punk; But if Porter or Carman be possest of his Doxie, He adopts his kind Hostess her Spiritual Proxie. Thus a Puritan Lecher (though with a lewd Slut) May solace the Spirit, while the Flesh goes to Rut. When Satan was squeamish, etc. M. (6) Lo here *Gog and Magog at once represent The Prophane Carnaval, and Idolatrous Lent; Both Teckelites true, as were *Titus and Eustace; The Guts of good Manners, and Garbage of Justice: But nothing more proper to vacuate Laws, Than the Mouth of Rebellion, and Rump of the Cause. When Satan was squeamish, etc. *Fat St. Lean Jeff. *Oats and Comins in the Plot. (7) Advance Ruffling Dick to supply the next place, Who on a bad Matter oft shams a worse Face: When the Algerine Caper has boarded his Frigat, He can fawn like a Floater, and cringe like a Bigot. Well the Good-natur'd Wittal may wink at his Fate, Since he that Cornutes him has Bugger'd the State. When Satan was squeamish, etc. C. (8) Wee'll refer young Tertullus t' a Bill of Review, Lest he shou'd Repeal what he never yet knew: His Worship wee'll leave to his new Breviaries, 'Till One Misereres worth Ten Avemaries; For a Janus-like Convert, who in Faith interlopes, Like a Cordelier-Fryar, must be sav'd by his Ropes. When Satan was squeamish, and long'd for a Dainty, The Pope Fricasseed him this new Four-and-twenty.
