THE RUMP DOCK'T TIll it be understood What is under Monck's Hood , The City dare not shew his horns : Till ten daies be out , The Speaker 's sick of the Gout , And the Rump doth sit upon thorns . If Monck be turn'd Scot The Rump goes to pot , And the Good Old Cause will miscarry ; Like coals out of embers , Revive the Old Members : Off goes the Rump , like Dick and Harry . Then In come the Lords , Who drew Parlament swords , With Robes lined through with Ermin ; But Peers without Kings Are very useless things , And their Lordships counted but Vermin Now Morley and Fagg May be put in a bagg , And that doughty man Sir Arthur ; In despair for his Foil , With Alderman Hoyle , Will become a Knight of the Garter . That Knave in Grain Sir Harry Vane His case then most mens is sadder ; There is little hope He can scape the rope , For the Rump turn'd him o're the Ladder . That pretious Saint Scott Shall not be forgot , According to his own desires ; Instead of Neck-verse Shall have it writ on his Horse , Here hangs one of the Kings Triers . Those nine sons of Mars That whipt the Rumps Arse , I mean the Commanders War-lick ; If the Rump smell strong With hanging too long , Shall serve to stuff it with Garlick . That parcel of man In length but a span , Whose wife's Eggs alwaies are addle ; Must quit the Life-guard , As he did when skar'd By Lambert out of the saddle . Lambert now may turn Florist , Being come off the poorest That ever did man of the Sword : The Rump let a fart Which took away his heart , And made him a Squire of a Lord . His Cheshire glory Is a pitiful story , There the Saints triumpht without battle ; But now Monck and his Friers Have driven him into the Briers , As he did Booth and his Cattle . For the rest of the Rump , Together in a lump , 'T is too late to cry ▪ Peccavi : Yee have sinn'd all or most Against the Holy Ghost , And therefore the Divel must have ye . But now valiant City , Whether must thy Ditty Be sung in Verie , or in Prose ; For till the Rump●●unk For fear of Monck , Thy Militia durst not shew Its Nose . Base Cowards and Knaves , That first made us slaves , Very Rascals from the beginning ; Onely unto Moncks Sword The Nation must afford The honour of bringing the King in .
