A NEW SONG OF THE French KING'S Fear OF AN ORANGE .
OF a Hectoring Bully Dear Muse , let us sing , ( Or to speak one's mind fully ) O' th' Most Christian King ; Who subdues Men by Huffing , And converts Men by Cuffing . Yet he fears if an Orange approaches too nigh , The gay Flower-de-luces wiil wither and dye . He 's Son to a Chast Queen , ' Tho ( if Authors don't lye , ) The devout Mazerine Had a Finger i' th' Pye , To mould a Church Hero More fierce than a Nero , Who yet fears if an Orange approaches too nigh , His gay Flower-de-luces will wither and dye . While he 's scareing his Neighbours With swelling Bravadoes , We but laugh at his Vapours And Rhodomantadoes , Tho' Monsieur le Dauphin Do's New Conquests begin , Yet they dread if an Orange approaches too nigh , The gay Flower-de luces will wither and dye . The Prodigious Advance That the Prince here has made , Makes an Earth-quake in France And great Lewis afraid ; La Chaise his Address And the Jesuites Finesse Can't hinder an Orange from approaching so nigh , That the gay Flower-de-luces will wither and dye . If a Fury Poëtick Foreknows things to come , I may dare be Prophetick , And foretell his just doom , Besides old Nostredame Has Predicted the same , That if once the brave Orange approaches too nigh , The gay Flower-de-luces will wither and dye .
The Second Part . 't is a sport to our Prince To bridle up a King , Tho' the Beast kick and wince His firm Rider to fling , He 'l make him Curvet , And so steadily sit , That an Orange once planted upon the French shor . The gay Flower-de-luces shall flourish no more . Help , Help , some kind Saint , Holy Churches Two Sons ; Help , thou Church Militant Of Converting Dragoons ; Shall Lewis Victorious , Shall Lewis the Glorious See an Orange transplanted upon the French shore And the gay Flower-de-luces now flourish no more Good Caesar compound , Do but Trust me once more ; If I 'm Treacherous sound , I 'm a Son of Whore ; Let us En Bonne foy Our Joyn'd Forces employ , To stave of an Orange quite from the French shore , Lest the gay Flowr-de-luces should flourish no more . 't is a Cursed ill thing , Makes me rave and run mad ; If I were not a King I 'd my self fight I-gad ; Besides riding will Pain o My Bag-pige in ano ; Must an Orange be planted then on the French shore , And my gay Flower-de-luces now flourish no more ? The wild Worm in my Tail My Vigour all drains , Th●ough its winding Canale ●●e voyded my Brains ; An● these damn'd Heretiques H●●e fool'd my Politiques , For an● ●●ange once planted upon the French shore , My gay ower-de-luces will flourish no more .
