A Ballad reioysinge the sodaine fall , Of Rebels that thought to deuower vs all . REioyce with me ye Christians all , To God geue laude and prayse : The Rebels stoute haue now the fall , Their force and strength decayes . Which hoped through their Traitrous traine , Their Prince and natiue soyle : To put by their deuises vaine , Vnto a deadly foile . And with their Armies stoute in Feilde , Against their Prince did rise : And thought by force of Speare and sheilde : to win their enterprise . It was the Erle of Westmerland , that thought him selfe so sure : By the aide of his Rebellious bande , his countrie to deuoure . The Erle eke of Northumberland , his Traitorous parte did take : With other Rebels of this Lande , for Aue Maries sake . Saying they sought for no debate , Nor nothing els did meane : But would this Realme weare in the state , That it before hath ben . What is that state I would faine know ? That they would haue againe : The Popish Masse it is I trowe , With her abuses vaine . As by their doings may apeare , In comming through ech Towne : The Bibles they did rent and teare , Like Traytours to the Crowne . And Traytours vnto god likewise , By right we may them call : That do his lawes and worde despise , Their Country Queene and all . The lawes that she established , According to Gods word , They seeke to haue abolished , By force of warre and sword . Forgetting cleane their loyaltie , That to their Prince they owe : Their faith and eke fidelitie , That they to hir should show . And rather seeke to helpe the Pope , His honour lost to winne , In whom they put their faith and hope , To pardon al their sinne . That if they should their natiue Land , Their Queene and God denie : They should haue pardon at his hand , For their iniquitie . Therfore with those that loue the Pope , They did their strength employ : And therby steadfastly did hope , Gods flocke cleane to destroy , And then set vp within this Land , In euery Churche and towne : Their Idols on Roodeloftes to stand , Like gods of greate renowne . Their Aulters and tradicions olde , With painted stocke and stone : Pardons and Masses to be solde , With Kerye leyson . Friers shoulde weare their olde graye Gownes , And Maides to shrift should com : then Priestes should singe with shauen Crownes Dominus Vobiscum All these and such like vaneties , Should then beare all the sway : And gods word through such fantasies , Should cleane be layd away . But like as god did them despise , Which were in Moyses dayes : That did a calfe of gold deuise , As god to giue him prayse . And for the same Idolatry , In one day with the sword : Did thre and twenty thousand dye , That did neglect his worde . The Children eke of Israell , In Ezechias time : He made among their Foes to dwell , That did Committe that Crime . But when that Ezechias praied , To God to helpe his owne : The Lorde forthwith did send them aide , Their Foes weare ouerthrowne , A Hundred Thousande Eightie Fiue , By Gods Aungelles weare slaine : And none of them were left aliue , That toke his name in Vaine , Senacheris also the Kinge , Then of the Assirians : As he his God was honouring , Was slaine by his two Sonnes . Like as he did those Rebels still , Which did his flocke pursewe : From time to time of his free will , By force of Warre subdewe . As Hollifernus and the rest , He put them still to flight : That had his little flocke opprest , In presence of his sighte . So hath he now these Rebels all , Through their vngodly trade : Cast downe into the Pit to fall , That they for others made . To whom still daily let vs praye , Our noble Queene to sende , A Prosperous Raigne both night and day , From her foes to defende . Her and her Counsaile , Realme and all , During her noble life : And that Ill hap may them befall , That seeke for Warre and strife . FINIS .
