The Second Part to the ſame Tune; OR, An Anſwer to the Lady of Qualities POPISH BALLAD of the POPISH PLOT.

[Page]

Like you my Song, or like it not,

I ſing the Down-fall of the PLOT;

The PLOTTERS Characters I ſhew,

The Devil by his Paw you'l know.

God bleſs our KING, our CHURCH Preſerve,

Whilſt TRAYTORS have what they deſerve.

To the Tune of PACKINGTON'S POUND.

1.

SInce Hell is broke looſe, and the Preſs ſet a work,

By Jeſuit, by Jew, by Chriſtian, and Turk;

By Fools, and by Fops, by Raſcals, and Knaves,

By Counterfeit Ladies, and by Scribbling Slaves:

Each Mome, and each Sot,

Now talks of the Plot,

Some cry it is true, and ſome ſwear it is not:

New Fire-balls in Pamphlets and Ballads are hurl'd,

To cajole the People, and amuſe the World.

2.

And among all the reſt, there ſtarts up for one,

A Prieſt under Petticoats, Jeſuit Joan;

Who in a lewd Ballad, does ſing a loud Lye,

And to o'erthrow the Plot by fooling would try:

And though very bold

The Plotters ſhe told,

The trick is too ſtale, the deſign is too old;

For no honeſt man in whom Reaſon doth dwell,

But ſcents the Popes breath, and the foul ſtink of Hell.

3.

The people deceiv'd by Jeſuitical Glaſſes,

No longer now will be ridden like Aſſes;

They won't be deceiv'd, by their old fooliſh Lyes,

But the Plot, and the Plotters, ſee with their own Eyes:

For it is too plain,

For all their falſe Train,

The Plot was firſt hatch'd in a Jeſuitical Brain:

And you ſhall without Romiſh Spectacles ſee,

Who both the Contrivers, and Actors ſtill be.

4.

A Politick States-man that doth all confound,

Who the Head of all true Religion does wound;

Who was the firſt Rebel, that e're did rebell,

And who ſtill advances all Traytors in Hell:

The Father of Evil,

And named Don Devil,

A very Fanatick, though he can ſeem Civil,

Of this wicked Plot firſt laid the cloſe Train,

And the Cockatrice hatch'd in a Jeſuits Brain.

5.

The Politick States-man in Councel did ſit,

With Legions, to find out ſome Inſtruments fit;

And picking and chooſing, he form'd a whole Rabble,

Who ſtink at St. Omers like Goats in a Stable:

Their Fortunes were low,

The Devil did know,

The bate of Preferment he therefore did ſhew:

He adopted theſe Tools, to give the Train fire,

For which ſome receiv'd a Rope for their hire.

6.

The next he prepar'd was a proud prating Knave,

Who long ply'd the Court, to Great ones a Slave;

He fed with great Hopes, kept up a great Table,

For Money from France, did make the Knave able:

He went and he ran,

Did many Trepan,

And for the Popes ſake, a whole Nation did ban:

He loſt his Reward if he gaped for Uburn,

For he with an Halter was Sainted at Tyburn.

7.

Like Rat in a Chamber another he found,

Who had from the Fathers got many a pound;

This Pick-lock of Law, to be the Book drudge,

Was made, with great hopes, at laſt to be Judge:

He loved Applauſe,

Perverted the Laws,

And filled with Zeal he grew ſtout for the Cauſe:

Leſt Drawing and Hanging ſhould not make him Martyr,

He laſh'd his own Back like a terrible Carter.

8.

The next were five bloudy and murtherous Fellows,

Who tempted by Money, made haſte to the Gallows;

By whoſe cruel hands a brave Hero did fall,

Sufficiently prov'd, though deny'd by them all:

Give the Devil his due,

The Treaſurer too,

He has Sins of his own, and needs none from you:

The Knight being ſlain, fled the Men of the Church,

And left the poor Lay-men to hang in the lurch.

9.

The next a grave Gown-man in terrible form,

Who with a ſtrong breath, doth blow up this Storm;

He thunders, he tears, he rants, and he roars,

To turn all Heretical Kings out of doors:

He makes a great rout,

And hunts all about,

To turn all Religion and Sanctity out;

Both Biſhop and Presbyter he'l turn to Graſs,

To bring in his Idols, and ſet up the Maſs.

10.

Thus both the Contrivers, and Actors you ſee,

They are not meer ſhadows, but really be;

But 'twas their ill Fortune, and our good Lot,

Or rather Gods Mercy confounded their Plot:

Whate're Ladies ſing,

They Murther'd one King,

And now to Confuſion another would bring:

God bleſs our good King, and long may he Reign,

And Jeſuits be Hanged if they Plot again.

FINIS.

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).
