AWake awake ye drowsy Sinners all, and hear the stormy Winds that on you call, Here's blustring Boreous thro' the Land did fly, Which frighted thousands that on Beds did lye. This storm about one of the Clock begun, With thundring Noises ore our Heads did run, Whilst women screeking in their Beds with fear Cry'd Husband rise and save our Children dear. From one till Daylight did this storm Remain, Sometimes with gusts upon the Houses came That like to Cradles they rock'd to and fro, whilst wretched Sinners knew not where to go. The Houses of their Tyles the Wind did strip The Lead from Churches to the Winds did rip Nay ruffled up & many yards was blown, Such winds before in England nere was known. Trees of vast bigness were blown down likewise And many hundred on the Ground now lies, So furious were the stormy Winds that night They all by Land or Water did affright, There was an East India Ship lay near Black-wall, [A]nd in these boysterous Winds were ruin'd all [T]he Ship turn'd so the Keel was upward sound, And all the Seamen to alass were Drown'd. Nay several Ships are cast away pray mind, And several shatter'd by this blustring Wind, And many Seamen on the Waves did float And could have no relief by Ship or Boat.
This Hurricane more dammage to has done Then all the Battle since the War begun, Besides the loss of Coliers as they say There's many of them likewise cast away. And that which further doe's our grief renew, Our Royal Queen was in great danger to, For by the blustring winds the Bricks did fall. But Heaven preserv'd Her from those dangers all. Tho by the fall of Chimneys up and down There's many one was killed in this Town Husbands & Wives, Children that suck'd the brest were knock'd ith Head as they were taking rest. A Watchman at St. Clements did declair, Sure Evil Spirits then were in the Air, For ore the Houses he a Horse did spy, Cross Blackamore Street in the Air to fly. That we may be from future Judgments free, Pray let each Christian fall upon his Knee, And Pardon beg for all Offences done which may present great Judgments for to come. For without doubt tis for our Sins, therefore Let us Repent that we may never more Have Judgments on ourselves thus for to fall, Least Vengeynce should in time destroy us all. Therefore let us for Mercy beg and Grace, That we at longth may see ehat Heavenly Place That's free from all the troubles here below, So Heavens grant at length it may be so.
