TO THE LOYAL Company of CITIZENS MET AT Merchant-Tailors Hall . 10 Aug. 1682. THey 're Met , they 're Sat , and Loyal Cups go round , And with their Cheers the well-built Walls rebound . The Trojans thus rejoyc'd , when they to Groves , From stormy Billowes had their first removes . When Seven fat Bucks Aeneas did impart To Ilions Youth , and bid 'em all take Heart . Since from black stormy Gusts and a rough Sea That lately tost , by Skilful Hands set free , They there enjoy'd a sweet Serenity . Bring out the Bowl , methinks I hear 'em cry , Which Belus , and all Belus Progeny Was wont with Sacred Wine to th' brim to Crown , And let it to Great CHARLES and his go down . And in the interim let some lov'd Youth tell , Fam'd as Iöpas , while each string does swell , In Sacred Lore how His Great Father fell . Then sigh each Loyal Soul for 's Master slain , Then Cheerly cry , His Heirs we will maintain , Successively on the same Throne to Reign . Thus doing , Loyal LONDON ne'r may want The Charters had when she was Troynovant . Thus doing , this August and Solemn Treat , Will make New LONDON as old Carthage great ; When true Aeneas and his Faithful Band , Queen Dido's Royal Table entertain'd .
