OLD JEMMY An Excellent New Ballad . To an Excellent New Tune , called , Young Jemmy : [1] OLd Jemmy is a Lad Right lawfully descended ; No Bastard born nor bred , Nor for a Whig suspended : The True and Lawful Heir to th' Crown , By Right of Birth and Laws , And bravely will maintain his own , In spight of all his Foes . [2] O●d Jemmy is the Top And Chief amongst the Princes No Mobile gay Fop , With Brimigham pretences : A Heart and Soul so wondrous great , And such a conqu'ring Eye , That every Loyal Lad fears not In Jemmy's Cause to die . [3] Old Jammy is a Prince Of Noble Resolutions , Whose Powerful Influence Can order our Confusions : But Oh! He fights with such a Grace , No Force can him withstand ; No God of War but must give place Where Jemmy leads the Van. [4] To Jemmy every Swain Does pay due Veneration ; And Scotland does maintain His Title to the Nation . The Pride of all the Court he stands , The Patron of his Cause , The Joy and Hope of all his Friends , The Terrour of his Foes . [5] Maliciously they Vote , To work Old Jemmy's Ruin , And zealously promote A Bill for his undoing : Both Lords and Commons most agree To pull His Highness down ; But ( 'spight of all their Policy ) Old Jemmy's Heir to th' Crown . [6] The Schismatick and Saint , The Quaker and the Athiest , Swear by the Covenant , Old Jemmy is a Papist ; Whilst all the Holy Crew did plot To pull His Highness down , Great Albany the Noble Scot Did raise unto a Crown . [7] Great Albany they swear , He before any other , Shall be immediate Heir Unto His Royal Brother , Who will , in spight of all his Foes , His Lawful Rights maintain , And all the Fops that interpose , Old Jemmy's York again . [8] The Whigs and Zealots Plot To banish him the Nation , But the Renowned Scot Hath wrought his Restauration . With high Respects they treat his Grace , His Royal Cause maintain ; Brave Albany ( to Scotland's Praise ) Is Mighty York again . [9] Against his envious Fates The Kirk hath taught a Lesson ; A Blessing on the States , To settle the Succession . They real were , both Knight and Lord , And will His Rights maintain ; By Royal Parliament restor'd , Old Jemmy's come again . [ 10 ] And now He 's come again , In spight of all Pretenders , Great Albany shall Reign Amongst the Faiths Defenders . Let Whig and Brimigham repine ; They shew their Teeth in vain ; The Glory of the British Line , Old Jemmy's come again .
