THE PROCESSION . A POEM . ON Tuesday last in Dame's Street , Such a Mob I chanc't to meet ; As you , perhaps sometimes have seen , Attending Thieves to Stephens-Green . The ragged Guard that led the Van , With loud Huzzas uncovered ran ; Not in respect to any there , But 'cause they had no Hats to wear . Such another Riff raff Crew , Hell , ( if too full ) could never Spue ? Fellows whose Imprecating Throats , Were still accustom'd to these Notes . Who want's a Light ? Sir , Black your Shoos . L●yd's New's Letter ! New News , new News ! Then fill'd the Air with other sounds , Some praised Squire T — r , others F — And others , D—m their Bl — d and W — s , The Church and King , one bawl'd aloud , And straight was follow'd by the Crowd : Down with the Whiggs ! some others cry'd , The Whiggs be Damn'd , the rest reply'd ; Then raising all their Voices higher , T — r and F—s ran thro' the Quire : Behind this Guard march't Two well drest , Mounted on Brutes above the rest ; Giving their Fellows some Advice , Which I believe was not o'er wise . The senceless Rout suckt in each Word , As greedy as a Sow a T — d. After these Dons ( the Knight and Squire , Bespattered with much Mud and Mire ) An Heterogeneous Multitude , Mobb-like Unciviliz'd and Rude ; Who either Jacks or Papists were , Trotting along bro't up the Rear . FINIS :
