A NEW SONG, BEING THE TORIES TRYUMPH, OR, THE Point well Weathered:

To a New Theatre Tune.

I.

SOme say, the Papists had a Plot,

Against the Church and Crown;

But be it so, or be it not,

The King must please the Town.

The Papists take Tybourn by turns,

To please the City Gulls;

It's strange, that they, who all wear Horns,

Should fear the Popish Bull's.

II.

The House of Commons blow the Coals,

The Nation to dissettle;

And, like true Tinkers, make two Holes,

To mend one in a Kettle:

Or else, What needs that precious Vote,

That if the King should Fall

By Pagan, or Phanatick Plot,

The Pope must pay for all?

III.

Our Royal James of Princely Race,

And High Illustrious Fame,

Was not thought fit, by Commons base,

To follow Charles's Waine:

But let that House of Office know,

When they have Sow'd their Leaven,

He shall Succeed, though they say no,

By all the Laws of Heaven.

IV.

Old Cavaliers for Loyalty

They streight Clapt up for Treason,

In hopes to bring in Anarchy,

'Gainst Justice, Sense, and Reason.

Brave Hallifax and Feversham,

Brave Worster, Just and Wise,

They did Vote down, as dangerous Men,

That they Themselves might Rise.

V.

But Oh! that Lord in Leistershire,

Turn'd Catchpole, though too Late,

'Tis better Priests in Prison were,

Then Bums should loose their Trade:

For Priest poor Waller never sought,

But where was Golden Crosses;

His Mirmidons went Snacks, 'tis Thought,

In all the Owners Losses.

VI.

The Doctor he has bid Farewell

To Jesus, and the Court;

And Tony's Tap runs flat and dull,

Makes Catch in hopes of Sport.

Bleu Protestants can make no work,

Unless like Hungary,

They for Religion Joyn the Turk,

For Christian Liberty.

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).
