Monmouth's Downfal ; OR , THE ROYAL VICTORY . To the Tune of , Hark , I hear the Cannons Roar . I. HArk , I hear the Trumpets found , The Loyal Joys and Shouts go round ; Whilst th' Echoing Hills and Dales rebound , The Whiggs are all surrounded . At Jove's dread Thunder , James's Frown , Behold the Foes of Church and Crown ; Th' old Rebel Gyants tumbling down , To Death and Hell Confounded . II. Argyle and Rumbold's Loosing Chance Began to lead the solemn Dance : And Monmouth's Fate does next advance , To fill the fatal Chorus . Their mounted Heads begin to make Our baffled Hero's Courage quake , And the Good Old Cause a tottering shake ; For James's Sword 's Victorious . III. Come ye great Phanatick Dons , Welcome all my Tyburn Sons ; Whilst the bending Gibbet groans With loads of Whiggs all round her : And th' Imperial Tony's Ghost , Lord of all the Stygian Coast , Salutes the vast descending Host ; The mighty Whigland-Founder . IV. No more that little Crop-ear'd Saint , Ferguson's Tub-Gospel Cant Shall th' aspiring Fop Enchant , And make dull fools adore him . Great James , in spight of Scotch Kirk Loons , The feeble Rumbold Musquetoons , And all the Zealous Taunton Clowns , Shall drive the World before him . V. Rampant Zeal's for ever tamed , The Tecklite Reformation shamm'd , The Presbyter - Turk , and Devil damn'd , And the long charm all ended . Quench'd are now th' Infernal brands , Whilst safe from Impious Rebel Hands , Great James's Life and Empire stands , By Angel Guards defended . VI. Then our Fears and Sorrows drown'd , Let the Jocund Bowls go round , With Royal Caesar's Health all Crown'd , And farewel all Delusion . To the sanctified True-Blue , That Hypocrite , false , pretending Crew ; To give the Rebel Devil his due , Perdition and Confusion .
