Father Peter's Policy Discovered ; Or , the P — of Wales Prov'd a P — Perkin . IN Rome there is a most fearful Rout , And what do you think it is about ? Because the Birth of the Babe's come out , Sing Lulla by Babee , By , by , by . The Jesuits Swore the Midwife told Tales , And ruin'd his Highness the Prince of Wales , She 's a Jade for her pains , Cots-plutter a-nails , Sing Lulla by Babee , By , by , by . The Popish Crew did all prot●st , That twenty great Men would Swear at least , They see his Welch Highness creep ou● of his Nest , Sing Lulla by Babee , by , by , by . The Goggle-Ey'd Monster in the Tower , He peep'd at his Birth for above an hour , And 't was a true Prince of Wales he Swore . Sing Lulla by Babee , by , by , by . Another great Lord , both Grave and Wise , Stood peeping between Her M — s T — s ; He look'd through a Glass for to save his Eyes . Sing Lulla by Babee , by , by , by .

Some say 't is a Prince of Wales by Right , And those that deny it , t is out of Spight ; But God send the Mother came honestly by 't . Sing Lulla by Babee , by , by , by . Some Priest they say crept nigh her Honour , And sprinkled some good Holy Water upon Her , Which made her conceive of what has undone Her. Sing Lulla by Babee , by , by , by . The Papists thought themselves greatly blest , Before the Young Babe was brought to the Test ; But now they call Peters a Fool of a Priest . Sing Lulla by Babee , by , by , by . The Priests in order to flye to the Pope , Are gotten on Board of the Foreign Hope , For all that stay here will be sure of a Rope . Sing Lulla by Babee , by , by , by .
