To each Gentleman S●dier in the Company 〈◊〉 Captain John Hulls , Captain in the YELLOW Regiment of Trained Bands of London . THO your great Actions I need not rehearse , ( They speak your Worth beyond my home-spun Verse , ) Yet Custom once a Year obliges me T' applaud your long-experienc'd Loyalty : Wherefore , Great Sirs , all that 's desir'd by me , Is , that my Offering may accepted be ; Being made unto you with a free good Will , Altho I can't pretend to th' Poet's Skill . When the Bold French ( last Year ) had an Intent Us to Invade , the YELLOW Regiment First took up Arms , meaning thereby to shew All Loyal Subjects what they ought to do For their dear Country , and its Warlike King , Whose Valour through th' whole Universe doth ring . When the Six Reg'ments March'd unto Hide-Park , ( Each Man accoutred like a Warlike Spark ) You were the Van , the Place of Honour due ( Brave Heroes of the YELLOW ) unto you : Th' admiring Crowd afforded you Applause , Crying , Behold the Glorious YELLOW Boys , Whose Loyalty has ever stedfast been Unto our most auspicious King and Queen , William and Mary whose great Worth will be Recorded unto all Posterity . And when their Majesties were pleas'd to say They 'd grace the Triumph of the Lord Mayor's Day , The YELLOW then was pitch'd upon to be Their chiefest Safeguard and Security . Thus upon all Occasions you are free To signalize your Zeal and Loyalty To your Dear Country and His Majesty . For which long may you live , untill you see All Enemies to England's Monarchy Fall down before your Arms and Loyalty . May sacred Heav'n always propitious be To Great King William and his Consort Mary , Is the good Pray'r , and shall be to the End , Of your most faithful Marshal and your Friend Thomas Hawki●●
