A NEW NARRATIVE OF THE OLD PLOT . A SONG : To the Tune of Russels Farewel . I. WHen Traytors did at Popery rail , because it taught Confession , When Bankrupts bawl'd for Property , and Bastards for Succession : When Tony durst espouse the Cause , spight of his Pox and Gout , When speaking Williams purg'd the House by spewing Members out . II. When Hunt a Twifort Pamplet wrote , the Emblem of his Soul , When Oats swore whom he pleas'd in 's Plot and reign'd without controul : When L — — ce Lampoon'd the Court , and Libel'd Cats and Dogs , When Witnesses like Mushrooms sprung , out of the Irish Boggs . III. Then Perkin thought 't was time to prove , his claim to Kingship Fair , And saith 't is fit the Peoples Son , should be the Peoples Heir : So fill'd with Zeal he and his Knight , Carress'd and Court the Rout , And my Lord Duke goes up and down , to shew his Grace about . IV. Tho' F — d Lord G G —y would not engage , upon that idle score , For he would have a Common-Wealth , as well as Common Whore : He envy'd his Old Friend a Crown , but why I can't devise , For 's Grace had grac'd his Lordships head , with Horns of Noble size . V. Likewise his Patron Zeal grew high , th' Exclusion to advance , And the Right Heir must be debar'd , for fear of Rome and France : The Zeelous Commons then resolv'd , and they knew what they did , By whomsoever King should fall , the Papists Throats should bleed . VI. So murth'ring Poniards oft are slipt , into a Guiltless Hand ; And Innocence is sacrific'd , whilst Malefactors stand ; By Hells assistance then they fram'd their damn'd Association , And worthy Men , and Men worthy , divided all the Nation . VII . Fools oft and Mad Men leave the less , and chuse the greater Evil , Thus for fear of POPERY , run headlong to the Devil : At last these Loyal Souls propose , to ease their Sovereigns Cares , If he 'l sit down and first remove their Jealousies and Fears . VIII . Just the Old trick and sham-Device , of Belzebub their Sire , If he 'l fall down and Worship them , they 'l grant his hearts desire ; Nay , Lives and Fortunes then shall be intirely all his own , If he will fairly once disclaim his Brother and a Crown .
