REbellion hath broken up House , and hath left me Old Lumber to sell : Come hither and take your choice , I 'le promise to use you well . Will you buy the Old Speaker's Chair , which was warm , and easie to sit in , And oftentimes hath been made clean , when as it was fouler then siting : Says O●d Sim●n the King , say● O d Simon the King , With h●s thread-bare Cloaths , and his Mamsey Nose , sing hey ding , ding , a ding ding . Will you buy any ●●con ●●itches ? t●ey● she f●t●est that ever were spent ; They 'r the sides of the old Committees , fed up with th' long parliment . Here 's a pair of be●●ows an● tongs , and for a small matter I 'le fell 'em ; They 'r made of the Presbiters Lungs , to blow up the Coa●s of Rebellion , Says old Simon the King , &c. I had thought to have given them once to some Black-●●●ith for his Forge ; But ●ow I have consider'd on 't , I for them have found other use : For I 'le give them to s●●e ●h●●r , to make the Organs to roar , And the little Pipes ●●ur●k higher then ev●r they did before , Says old Simo ●he King , says Ol Simon the King , With his Thread-bare Cloaths , and his mamsey Nose sing hey ding , ding , a ding ding . Here , s a couple of S●ools for sale , the one square and t'other is round ; Betwixt them both the Tail of the Rump fell unto the Ground . Will you buy the States Council Table , which was made of the good wain-Scot ; The frame was a tottering Bable to uphold th'independent plot ; Says old Simon the King , &c. Here 's the Beesom of Reformation , which should have made clean the Floor , But it swept the wealth out of th' Nation and left us Dirt good store . Will you buy States Spining wheel , which spun for the Ropers Trade ? But better it had stoodstill , for now in has spun a Fair Thred ? Says old Simon the king , &c. Here 's a very good Clyster Pipe , which was made of a Butchers stump ? And oft-times it hath been us'd to cure the Colds of the Rump . Here 's a lump of Ignorance , which once was a Iustice of peace , Who ●●l and the Deuil did serve , but now it is come to This , Says old Simon the King , &c. Here 's a Role of States Tobacco , if any Good Fellow will take it : It 's nither Virginia nor Spanish , but I 'le tell you how they do make it ; T is Covenant mixt with Engagement , with an Abjuration Oath ; And many of them that did take it complain it was foul in the Mouth , Says Old Simon the King , &c. ●●t the Ashes may happily serve to cure the Scab of the Nation , When they have an itch to serv● a Rebellion by Innovation , A Lanthorn here is to be bought , the like was scarce e're begotten : For many a Plot't has found out , before they ever were thought on , Says old Simon the King , &c. Will you buy the Rumps great Saddle , which once did carry the Nation ; And here 's the Bitt and the Bridle , and Curb of Dissimulation ? Here 's the Breeches of the Rump , With a fair dissembling Cloak , And a Presbiterian Iump , with an Independent Smock , Says old Simon the King , &c. Will you buy a Conscience ne'r turn'd , which served the High Court of Iustice ? And stretch'd until England it mourn'd , but Hell will buy that if the worst is : Here 's Ioan Crumwels Kitching-stuff-Tub , wherein is the Fat of the Rumpers , With which she Old Noll's Horns did rub , when he was got drunk with full Bumpers : Says Old Simon the King , &c. Here 's the Purse of the Publique Faith , here 's the Model of Sequestration , Here are the old wives who on good troth , sent Thimbles to ruine the Nation : Here is Dick Crumwel's Protectorship , and here is Lambert's Commission , And here is Hugh Peters his Scrip , cram'● with the Tumultuous Petitions . Says Old Simon the King , &c. Here 's Olivers Brewing Vessels . and here 's his Dray and his Slings : Here 's Hewsons Aul and his Bristles , with divers other odd things . And what doth the price belong to all these matters before ye ? I 'le sell them all for an old song , and so I do end my story Says old Simon the King , Says old Simon the King , With his thread-bare cloaths , & a Mamsey Nose Sing hey ding , ding , a ding ding . FINIS .
