A LETANY For the NEVV-YEAR , with a Description of the NEW STATE . FRom all and more than I have written here , I wish you well protected this New year ; From Civil war , and such uncivil things As ruine Law and Gospel , Priests and Kings ; From those who for self-ends would all betray , From such new Saints that Pistol when they pray , From flattering Faces with insernal Souls , From new Reformers , such as pull down Pauls , From Linsy-woolsy Lords , from Town betrayers , From Apron-Preachers , and extemp're Prayers , From Pulpit-blasphemy , and bold Rebellion , From Bloud and — somthings else that I could tel ye on , From new false Teachers which destroy the old , From those that turn the Gospel into Gold , From that black Pack where Clubs are alwaies Trump , From Bodies Politique , and from the Rump , From those that ruine when they should repair , From such as cut off Heads instead of Hair , From twelve Months Taxes , and abortive Votes , From chargeable Nurse-Children in red Coats , From such as sell their Souls to save their Sums , From City Charters that make Heads for Drums , From Magistrates which have no truth or knowledge , From the red Students now in Gresham Colledge , From Governments erected by the Rabble , From sweet Sir Arthurs Knights of the round Table , From City-Saints whose Anagram is Stains , From Plots , and being choak'd with our own Chains ; From these , and ten times more which may ensue , The Poet prays , Good Lord deliver you . Lo here a Glorious Realm subverted stands , Just Tumbler-like upon the Feet and Hands : Once Europes Pride and Envy , now their Scoff . Since the base Entrayles cut the Head on 't off , The Body lost its form , and 's turn'd a Lump ; Now all the Lims are Vassals to the Rump , Which , all the Nutriture devour'd and spent , Yields nothing back but stink and excrement , And all returns that ever this doth send us , Serves only to defile us and offend us ; 'T is by much pampring grown a strange Disease , Which all receives , and gives nor food , nor ease To th' pining Body , but is craving still ; And we by feeding it our selves do kill ; Which nothing lives by that has any worth , But those base vermin , which its stink brought forth . If every Member in this Body would Withdraw its strength , and influence , as they should , This nasty Highness quickly must abate , And yield to th' Head , which only saves the State . The RUMP .
