The happy Meeting of King William and Q●●●● M●ry , at his Return from and after his Conquest in Ireland .

elaborate woodcut of Mary II and William III meeting on horseback Well met , most ve●tuous 〈…〉 England , After my Conquests gained in Ireland Over mine , and yours , and England's Foes , In midst of Thousand Deaths , fighting with those That would enslave our ●u●jects , us Dethrone ; Set up the French , and change our Religion . Welcom my most beloved Prince and King , Of whose victorious Arms the World doth ring : Let Triumphs still attend , and Heavens bless And Crown your Actions with desired Success . Let England's Glory 〈◊〉 let France's fall ; Lawrels King William Crow● in spight of all

WHat Pen can write the smallest part , or thing , Of the Heroick Actions of our King ? Never did Heaven apply a Remedy more fit To a Disease , than did that Victory hit , … d at the River Boyne , in Ireland , … ing his Passage with his Sword in 's Hand : In midst of Bullets flying , God directs One for to touch , not hurt , whom God protects . The Victory 's gained , the French and Irish run , Forsaking Dublin the Metropolitan , Where the opprest did wait , and silence keep ; For God had lull'd there Enemies asleep ; Who when they wak'd , shook with their trembling rage , Yet wanted Skill or Courage to engage ; Some wanted Hearts , some wanted Wills to obey , Some they had both , yet fled in Troops away . The French-men shook , base Fear there Hearts subdu'd ; They even fled too , when no Man pursu'd : Forsook of God , of Courage quite herest , Scarce of this mighty Host a handfull lest ; Like great Goliah , when he self he curs ' , Had these not done so too , they had surely burst . What matters Force , remember Gideon's Flail , The Man whom God sends forth he must prevail , And God hath brought him back to us again , And to the Enjoyment of his Royal Queen . Consider then , and gratefully repay Those that have saved your Lives , when bleeding lay , When L●ws and Liberties were torn away : If not like those that grudge the King their Prayers , You are Betrayers of your selves and Heirs , This King preserv'd our Throats , and sav'd our Laws , Which the late King had doom'd to serve the Cause , Let Plagues his Popish Foes to ruine bring , Whilse we support , ay , and defend the King .
