The JESUITS Character . Written by a Member of the POPISH CLUB . To the Black-Smiths Tune , Which no body can deny . THE Jesuits they are a sort of Men That the Name of Jesus usurp with their Pen , In a thousand , honest are hardly ten ; Which no body can deny . The Churches of God they make Dens of Thieves , They cajol the Men , and lye with their Wives , When th' are to be hang'd , none wish 'em Reprieves ; Which no body can deny . For Christian Charity , they all despise it , But as to themselves they all will advise it ; And if they once beg , he 's a knave that denies i● . Which no body can deny . The Doctrine of Devils is all they teach , Wo be to them that come in their reach ; For Murder and Treason is all that they Preach . Which no body can deny . In your Cities both great and fair , Where conveniences are to spare , There your Jesuits always are . Which no body can deny . Magnificent Houses , excellent Wine , Their Bread of the whitest , and Linnen so fine , With a Cloak to the Ground they always design . Which no body can deny . Turkies , Capons , Chickens , and Geese , Swans and Peacocks at so much apiece , For a Dinner worth Jason's Golden Fleece . Which no body can deny . Of Lamb and Veal , the tenderest bits , And the choicest of Mutton too by fits ; These are the Books employ their wits . Which no body can deny . Thus in their Houses they keep revel Rout , Where all things go in , but nothing goes out ; So merrily goes the year about . Which no body can deny . Where ever they come they search and pry , Not a Family passage escapes their Eye , And then they report what ever they spy . Which no body can deny . As for high Honour and worldly Pomp , They turn up always these things Trump , And rather than lose , to the Devil will jump . Which no body can deny . When ever a rich Man lies a dying , The Jesuits presently they come flying , To get what they can by wheadling and lying . Which no body can deny . In the Courts of Princes , who but they ; Among the Clergy they bear great sway , And the Devils among the Laity play . Which no body can deny . To bloody Revenge they still excite , For public hate , and private spite , Are chiefly the Lectures they endite . Which no body can deny . Princes and Kings they destin to slaughter , For which they are sometimes noos'd in a Halter , Belov'd as the Devil loves Holy Water . Which no body can deny . For to maintain their Earthly pride , All fear of Heaven and Hell they deride , And in so doing th' are not bely'd . Which no body can deny . They would have murder'd our gracious King ▪ And was not that a most damnable thing ? But some are gone to Heaven in a String . Which no body can deny . Full many a Monarch they have kill'd , And Royal Blood have cruelly spill'd ; But Providence did our Soveraign shield . Which no body can deny . They would have subverted our Government , And against the Nation were wickedly bent , For which reason they were to Tiburn sent . Which no body can deny . Popery they would fain have brought in , Which says that King-killing is no Sin ; But Ketch did hang them up by the Chin . Which no body can deny . Now may they all go to the Devil headlong , For then they can do us no farther wrong , Which is the conclusion of my Song . Which no body can deny .
