Classic Poem

Go d blesse the King and Queen , the Prince also,
And all his Loyal Subjects both high and low,
For Roundheads can pray for themselves we know;
Which no body can deny .

The Devil take Pym and all his Pears,
God blesse Prince Rupert and his Cavaliers,
For if they come hither Pym will stink with fears;
Which no body can deny .

God blesse Rupert and Maurice withall,
That gave the Roundheads a great downfall,
And knockt their Noddles 'gainst Worcester wall;
Which no body can deny .

Lawn sleeves and Surplices must go down,
For why, King Pym doth sway the Crown;
But all are Bishops that wears a Black Gown;
Which no body can deny .

Let the Canons roar, and the Bullets flye,
King Pym doth swear he'll not come nigh,
He sayes, its a pittyfull thing to dye;
Which no body can deny .

The Horners they are brave Blades,
I do not know, but it is said
The stout Earl of Essex is free of that trade;
Which no body can deny .

The Baker over Burton cannot domineer,
For it is most firmly reported here,
He's as free of the Pillory as ever they were;
Which no body can deny .

There is Isaack Pennington both wise and old,
I do not know, but 'tis for truth told
That he is turned poor Sexton of Pauls .
Which no body can deny .

There is a Lord W — — — both wise and round,
He will meet Prince Rupert upon any ground,
And if that his hands behind him be bound;
Which few people will deny .
