J thanke you twice : Or , The City Courring their owne ruine , Thank the Parliament twice , for their treble undoing . THe Hierarchy is out of date , Our Monarchy was sick of late , But now 't is growne to an excellent state , Oh God a mercy Parliament . The Teachers know not what to say , The Prentices have leave to play ; The people have all forgoten to pray , Still God a mercy Parliament . The Roundhead , and the Cavalier Have fought it out almost seven yeare , And yet ( me thinks ) they are never the neere , Oh God &c. The Gentry are sequestred all , Our Wives you find at Goldsmiths Hall , For there they meet with the Divell and all , Still God &c. The Parliament are growne to that heigth , They care not a pin what his Majesty faith , And they pay all their debts with the publique faith , Oh God &c. Though all wee had heere , is brought to nought , In Ireland wee have whole Lordships bought , And there we shall one day be rich , 't is thought , Still God a mercy &c. We must forsake our Father and Mother , And for the state , undoe our owne brother , And never leave murthering of one another , Oh God &c. Now the King is caught , and the Devill is dead , Faireface must be disbanded , Or else he may chance to be Hothamed , Still God &c. They have made King Charles a glorious King , He was told ( long agoe ) of such a thing , Now he , and his Subjects have reason to sing , Oh God a mercy Parliament , Mr. Fink . Mr. An. Dom , 1647.
