IS Hell broke loose ? that thus ROME'S Locusts Rage , Some sad Catastrophe it might Presage ; But that the Heavenly Powers do still restrain Those Wolves , which in our Brittish-Isle would Raign . For to Describe Them , I 'le not Undertake , But Hint a little for Diversion-sake : And since in Pictures they so much Delight , Here is One ready Drawn unto Their Sight . I Behold ! A JESUIT in a German-Dress , Ready to Act All kinds of Wickedness : Like PROTEUS , they Appear in Sundry Shapes , And Imitate all Fashions , like to Apes ; Sometimes a Spaniard , English , French , or Dutch , And in each Garb their Treasons are as much . G Like to the same CAMELION that you See , Which Changeth to all Colours ; So doth He . L In th'other Hand he holds a LYONS-Paw , To show how he the Protestants would Claw : Likewise His Vizard-Mask's in Readiness , To Change His Visage as He Changeth Dress ; That He thereby more Slyly may Attain By such Evasions , Proselytes to Gain . C The Fierce HYAENA , and D the CROCODILE , Which Preys about the Fruitful Banks of Nile , Attending at His Feet , no less can be Then Emblems of His Bloody Cruelty : Whose feigned Tears do Passengers Invite , Till they have brought them to Destruction quite . F Then next you have the FOX , whose Subtilty They Imitate by Wicked Pollicy , To Hoard up Gold ; their Avarice is such , To Hazard Soul and Body they 'l not Grutch . H Then cast your Eye a little near the Top , And see how they a Castle would Blow up . E Behind His Back there stands his Porphry-Chair , Where He doth All His Stratagems Prepare , In Hatching of those Eggs which there do lye , He Spends His Time in Cursed Slavery ; And Plots so much until His Brains do Maddle , For to our Joy , Their Eggs do All prove Addle . N For why ? Behold ! Old TIME doth Him oppose , And brings to Light the Treasons of Our Foes ; He with His Sythe and Glass at length Appears , To rid Us of Our Jealousies and Fears . O And by Disclosing TRUTH before the SUN , Discovers all the Treasons They have Done . M The SPANISH-Fleet , which came in Eighty Eight , To bring Our Nation to Destruction quite , Is Pointed Out by TRUTH , who will not Lye , That We might know their Bloody Minds thereby . K View Them in Council Sitting to Debate Such Cursed Things as HELL it Self would Hate : For let Them know , We have not yet Forgot Their Damn'd Design about the Powder-PLOT ; When They with All the Devils did Consent At Once to Plow up KING and PARLIAMENT . A When Protestants under Their power do Fall , What Tortures they Afflict poor Souls withal ? You there may plain behold their Cruelty , Enough to Melt a Stony Heart to See : O! Bloody minded Wretches , that can feel No True Remorse , but have such Hearts of Steel . But to Come nearer to Our Present Days , How many Plots ? How many Sundry Ways Have they Contriv'd Our Nation to Destroy ? And bring both KING and Kingdom to Annoy . Which TIME hath now Disclos'd and brought to light , And let Us See their Malice and their Spight : For TIME is unto TRUTH so great a Lover , That Good , or Bad , He all Things will Discover . What Thanks have We to give to GOD Above , Who Sent Brave OATES , and BEDLOW , in His Love , In Time to give Us Warning of Our Foes , And All their Dark Designs for to Disclose ; By Truth to bring their Secret Acts to View , For which some of them did Receive their Due At TYBURN , where Jack Ketch did give them Rope For all their Zealous Love unto the POPE . So Fare all Those who Seek to Circumvent , And Ruine Nations , KING and PARLIAMENT .
FINIS .
