Thou shalt Covet nothing but _Crown-Lands_, _Bishops Lands_, and
the Estates of _Malignants_.
_POSTSCRIPT._
_Thus is our_ New Religion
_Model'd by that of_ Forty One;
_And we must root up_ Monarchy
_To stop the growth_ of Popery;
_And undermining_ Church _and_ State,
Rome's _Practices we'll Antedate_;
_The better to prevent the_ PLOT,
_Ourselves will do what they cou'd not_.
_We'll cure all fear of_ French Invasion,
_By ruining at home the Nation_.
_And since_ Petitions _do no good,
And all our Tricks are understood:
Since He who never us'd to fail,
Doth now, our little_ Matchiavel;
_We'll to the World Proclaim aloud,
The_ King _and_ Duke _thirst after_ Bloud.
Curtis, Harris, Smith and Care,
_Shall Thrice a Week the Kingdom scare_,
As if the_ Devil, Turk, _or_ Pope,
_Were just arrived in the_ Hope,
_We'll authorize Men to Rebel,
By Tales from_ Hatfield, _and from_ Hell:
_And then perswade the silly Nation,
That_ Treason _comes by_ Revelation:
_And that_ Imaginary Ghosts
_Are_ Envoys _from the Lord of_ Hosts.
_Nor will We cease, till we pull down_
Episcopacy _and the_ Crown.
Printed for _Tom Tell-troth_ at the Sign of the _Old King's Head_
in _Axe Yard in King Street, Westminster_.
