Being a Panegyrick on the most Happy Return of His Royal Highness JAMES Duke of York , Lord High Admiral of England , Septemb. 19. 1672.

REturn'd and Safe ! Let the glad Realm Rejoyce , Till Rocks , and Mountains , Eccho all our Joyes . The purling Streams would else our Mirth forestall , And make their murmurs much more Musical . Thrice Welcom ( Mighty Prince ! ) Let the Bells ring , And all the People Jo-paean Sing . We owe not here to Faggots , Pitch , or Tarre , Our Hearts enflam'd with Love , Best Bonfires are ; Since our Great JAMES is to St. Jamesses come ; Wellcome as the blest day , that brought him Home : A Day than which a Happier ne're was known , Save that which brought our Soveraign to his Throne . A Day , to Loyal Hearts of special Note , Brought the Great JAMES home in a Pleasure-boat . Well-fare those gentle , those auspicious Gales , For Albions sake swell'd his Tryumphant Sailes . Well-fare brisk Tydes , well-fare those active Rowers , Wing'd with desire , and Joy Feather'd their Oars . The Tower Salutes him with one Broad-side more , Re-minding Thousands he Receiv'd before . Upon his Stern the Crimson Ensigne stood , A Flag was double-dy'd with Belgick-Blood . The very Sea Trembled to see him there , And Neptune hid his wavy Head for fear . His Presence did the Sea-Gods so Confound , That not a Tryton durst a Trumpet Sound . What should He more pursue his prostrate Foes ? He staid till there was nothing to Oppose ; Save Petty Privateers , slinckt out of Size : Let Idle Emp'rours spend their hours on Flyes . Some deem'd him Dead , his Conduct being to these As Dark as Midnight , and as Deep as Seas . What is 't , that Bulk of Baseness Satisfies ? Who , though they See Him , dare not trust their Eyes . For , dazled with an Object so Supream , Their Envy would be Blind , that it might Dream . This Juncto , by a Coffee-House contrive , Have Thousands Kill'd ( thank God ) are still Alive : And they , to Base and Dis-ingenious Ends , Bewail their Enemies , and Bewitch their Friends . For since aside Wallingford-House is stept In Coffee-house , Committee of Safety 's kept . Who by the Turks Black Drink , for ought I see , Are become no less Infidels than Hee . A Sect of Schismaticks that wou'd have that , Ask 'um at present , and they know not what . Defend us Heaven ! the World 's a troublous Sea , Where every Puppy wou'd a Pilot be . Far , far be 't from Inferiours to Enquire : Suffice it , they Sit Happy , and Admire . FINIS .
