THE HVE AND CRY AFTER Sir JOHN PRESBYTER . WIth Hair in Characters , and Lugs in text : With a splay mouth , & a nose circumflext : With a set Ruff of Musket bore , that wears Like Cartrages or linen Bandileers , Exhausted of their sulpherous Contents In Pulpit fire-works , which that Bomball vents : The Negative and Covenanting Oath , Like two Mustachoes , issuing from his mouth : The Bush upon his chin , ( like a carv'd story , In a Box knot ) cut by the Directory : Madams Confession hanging at his eare , Wiredrawn through all the questions , How & Where , Each circumstance , so in the hearing Felt , That when his ears are cropt hee 'le count them gelt : The sweeping Cassock scar'd into a Jump ; A signe the Presbyter's worne to the stump ; The Presbyter , though charm'd against mischance With the Divine right of an Ordinance . If you meet any that doe thus attire'em , Stop them they are the Tribe of Adoniram . What zealous Frenzie did the Senate seize , That tare the Rochet to such Rags as these ? Episcopacy minc't , Reforming Tweed Hath sent us Runts even of Her Churches breed ; Lay-interlining Clergie , a Device That 's nick-name to the stuff call'd Lops and Lice . The Beast at wrong end branded you may trace The Devils foot-steps in his cloven Face . A Face of severall Parishes and sorts , Like to the Sergeant shav'd at Inns of Court . What mean the Elders else , those Kirk Dragoons , Made up of Ears and Ruffs , like Duckatoons ? That Hierarchie of Handicrafts begun ? That new Exchange-men of Religon ? Sure they 're the Antickheads , which plac'd without The Church , do gape and disembogue a spout : Like them above the Commons House , have bin So long without , now both are gotten in ; Then , what Imperious in the Bishop sounds , The same the Scotch Executor rebounds . This stating Prelacy ; the Classick Rout , That spake it often , ere they spake it out . So by an Abbyes Scheleton of late , I heard an Eccho supererogate Through imperfection , and the voice restore As if he had the hicop o're and o're . Since they our mixt Diocesans combine Thus to ride double in their Discipline ; That Pewles shall to the Consistory call A Deane and Chapter out of Weavers-Hall ; Each at the Ordinance to assist , With the five thumbs wof his groat-changing Fist . Downe Dagon Synod with thy motley ware Whilst we doe swagger for the Common-Prayer . That Dove-like Embassie , that wings our sence To Heavens gate in shape of Innocence : Pray for the Miter'd Authors , and Defie These Demicasters of Divinitie . For where Sr. John with Jack of all Trades joyns His Finger's thicker then the Prelat's Loyn's . FINIS .
