THE SECOND PART.
A crown of gold without allay,
Not here provided for one day,
But framed above to last for aye!
God send, etc.
A Queen to fill the empty place,
And multiply his noble race,
Wee all beseech the throne of grace
To send, etc.
A people still as true and kind
As late (when for their King they pin’d),
Not fickle as the tide or wild,
God send, etc.
A fleet like that in fifty-three,
To re-assert our power at sea,
And make proud Flemings bend their knee,
God send, etc.
Full magazines and cash in store,
That such as wrought his fate before
May hope to do the same no more,
God send, etc.
A searching judgement to divine,
Of persons whether they do joyn
For love, for fear, or for design,
God send, etc.
A well-complexion’d Parliament,
That shall (like Englishmen) resent
What loyall subjects underwent,
God send, etc.
Review of statutes lately past,
Made in such heat, pen’d in such hast,
That all events were not forecast,
God send, etc.
Dispatch of businesse, lawes upright,
And favour where it stands with right,
(Be their purses ne’er so light),
God send, etc.
A raven to supply their need,
Whose martyrdom (like noble seed)
Sprung up at length and choak’t the weed,
God send, etc.
The King and kingdom’s debts defray’d,
And those of honest men well pay’d,
To which their vertue them betray’d,
God send, etc.
Increase of customes to the King
May our increase of traffick bring,
’Tis that will make the people sing
Long live, etc.
