THE MOCK-ELOGIE ON THE FUNERAL OF Mr. Caryl; Gloriously solemnized, February 25th. 1672/3. by an unparallell'd Concourse and Attendance of all Sorts and Sects of People.

BLess me! what's here? a motley-throng;

Presbyters, Sectarists among;

Quakers, with Kiffin and J. O.

Ranters, with Praise-god Bare-bones too.

Here's a new Annus Mirabilis,

A Miracle This Rabble is;

Hanging on one string together,

And All to Church now coming hither:

A Reformation, sudden as strange:

What is't has made this happy change?

Flocking to Church now, One and All?

Oh! 'tis old Caryls Funeral.

Quakers once call'd him Antichrist,

And Prebyterian-limb o'th' Beast.

All sects, but one, us'd to defie him,

And would not, whilst he liv'd, come nigh him.

Caryl has made Church-converts more,

Being dead, than ere he did before.

All these sects are one Heteroclite,

That worship God chiefly for spite:

To Church they'l not refuse to go,

So they may thence their malice show;

And boast the numbers of their Party,

And that the Old Cause still is hearty.

These Pharisees, for th' esteem of men,

Pray, Bury, Preach; All to be seen.

All th' modern Orthodox together;

Wild with his Gout too could hop thither

To get new Cloak, for writing Verse,

Pin'd, like a Coat of Arms, to th' Herse:

Like to those snivelling Elogies

He made upon the Rebels, Twisse,

Palmer next, Burroughes, Hill, Gouge, White,

With Whitaker, who (Wild says) did fight

As far as York, with Cavaleers,

And Routed them, with Prayers and tears.

Well fought Don Quixot: else Wild lyes:

(I had it truly 'mongst his storyes;)

Where, in Blasphemous Elogies,

He praises Rebels to the skies,

And Milton's hackney-Pen out-vies,

On their Ʋrnes offering sacrifice.

Wild, like the Pope, erects an Altar

For Traitors that deserv'd an Halter.

The Pope Saints Loyola: Wild Saints Knox,

With the rebellious Orthodox,

Perne, Marshal, Robinson and Strong,

Peters, Caryl, the rest among.

The Assembly now are every one

Call'd to their last account and gone.

Caryl bringing the Rear up, thus

Lieutenant to Smectymnuus.

Where art thou Iter Boreale?

Whilst we thus weep, come, tell what ayle we:

Thou! that, when Hugh Peter's dy'd,

With dirty Rhimes him deifi'd;

Placing him, in the skies, next Star

To th' General of our Holy-war

Essex: Oh Essex! says this Poet,

Begging o'th' Parliament a Vote,

That All, as Malignants, should be try'd,

Who smil'd that year that Essex dy'd.

Wild shall Saint both Bawd and Whore;

If Baber give him ten crowns more.

For half-ten crowns, he shall in Rhime,

God and his own Father Blaspheme;

And King, Church, Parliament abuse,

For twelve-pence with his Ballad-Muse:

And make a whining Elogie

On Father Gray-beard, Gregorie.

He, a dead wench, a star did make

For one crown, and her Father's sake;

Saying, if th' wench had been a whore,

It should have cost him as much more.

Wild had good Glebe, but did fore-go it,

To be a Bartlemew Babe (and Poet.)

Therefore unfit for the Priest's office,

From which St. Paul rejects the Novice.

Wild's Cassock's turn'd, (to tell you true,)

To Frocks cut out o'th' Aprons blue:

A Linsey-woolsey Clergy-man,

A Holder-forth like Julian:

A Holy-cheat in meeter, Thus

Asinum scalpat Asinus.

Have you not seen a Mountebank's fool sometimes

Duck-quoy men in, with Trumpet and with Rhimes?

Jack-pudden Wild for Customers thus stickles,

He's Merry-Andrew to the Conventicles.

London! by Plagues, learn to be wise:

These Rebels have enflam'd thee twice:

With Tumults these did thee enflame,

To punish which the fire came;

God took the Rod and laid it on

For unrepented sedition.

Lay not the blame on this, or that;

On Papists, and I know not what:

Blame thy still-repeated-sin,

Faction that lyes yet within.

Look this day on this factious Crew,

They All are of a Different hue:

Their Features have a several Grace,

Yet now they seem to have one face.

What brings to Church All these sects now?

Right Hypocrites! All's for a show.

How came all sects thus to combine?

Oh! I can tell you, 'tis designe

Which makes them All agree in one,

In what d'ye think? in Sedition.

Sure Hell's broke loose, for here we have

Strange Ghosts now walking to the Grave:

Heavens keep us from this Stygian Race!

Are these the fruits of Acts of Grace?

Creation

Created by converting TCP files to TEI P5 using tcp2tei.xsl, TEI @ Oxford.

Editorial practices

EEBO-TCP is a partnership between the Universities of Michigan and Oxford and the publisher ProQuest to create accurately transcribed and encoded texts based on the image sets published by ProQuest via their Early English Books Online (EEBO) database (http://eebo.chadwyck.com). The general aim of EEBO-TCP is to encode one copy (usually the first edition) of every monographic English-language title published between 1473 and 1700 available in EEBO.

EEBO-TCP aimed to produce large quantities of textual data within the usual project restraints of time and funding, and therefore chose to create diplomatic transcriptions (as opposed to critical editions) with light-touch, mainly structural encoding based on the Text Encoding Initiative (http://www.tei-c.org).

The EEBO-TCP project was divided into two phases. The 25,363 texts created during Phase 1 of the project have been released into the public domain as of 1 January 2015. Anyone can now take and use these texts for their own purposes, but we respectfully request that due credit and attribution is given to their original source.

Users should be aware of the process of creating the TCP texts, and therefore of any assumptions that can be made about the data.

Text selection was based on the New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature (NCBEL). If an author (or for an anonymous work, the title) appears in NCBEL, then their works are eligible for inclusion. Selection was intended to range over a wide variety of subject areas, to reflect the true nature of the print record of the period. In general, first editions of a works in English were prioritized, although there are a number of works in other languages, notably Latin and Welsh, included and sometimes a second or later edition of a work was chosen if there was a compelling reason to do so.

Image sets were sent to external keying companies for transcription and basic encoding. Quality assurance was then carried out by editorial teams in Oxford and Michigan. 5% (or 5 pages, whichever is the greater) of each text was proofread for accuracy and those which did not meet QA standards were returned to the keyers to be redone. After proofreading, the encoding was enhanced and/or corrected and characters marked as illegible were corrected where possible up to a limit of 100 instances per text. Any remaining illegibles were encoded as <gap>s. Understanding these processes should make clear that, while the overall quality of TCP data is very good, some errors will remain and some readable characters will be marked as illegible. Users should bear in mind that in all likelihood such instances will never have been looked at by a TCP editor.

The texts were encoded and linked to page images in accordance with level 4 of the TEI in Libraries guidelines.

Copies of the texts have been issued variously as SGML (TCP schema; ASCII text with mnemonic sdata character entities); displayable XML (TCP schema; characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or text strings within braces); or lossless XML (TEI P5, characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or TEI g elements).
