The Song sung on St. George's Day, &c.

1.

LET every Kingdom, Camp and Court, Whose Natives to this Realm resort, Congratulate That Prince, whose Name's (As His Blest Grandsire's was) King JAMES;

Second by Name, but in the Throne, And Orb of Honour, shines Alone, And There sits Second unto None.

2.

Let all Confederate Kings and Powers, Whose Kingdoms are at Peace with Ours, Rejoyce; Whilst Trumps and Cannons Ring, The Loud Elogiums of Our KING.

3.

Let France and Spain disband all Fears; With Denmarks, and great Polands Peers; Whilst Nobles, with the Clergy, clear All Clouds arising in Our Sphear.

4.

When Ireland Tunes his Charming Lyre, Stout Scotland's Lyon doth retire,

And her Pungent Thistles close In Ʋnion with our English Rose.

5.

Thames and Tiber both Combine; And Londons made the Magazine Of Merchandize; in each Degree, Where Men do meet, both Bond, and Free.

6.

Lisbond's Rich, and Royal Pile, Freely Traffiques with Our Isle In most Commodities of the Land; And Joys to Kiss Our Soveraign's Hand.

7.

Belgia then no more distrust A Prince, whose Prudence can Adjust All Diff'rences, in whom you'll find His Father's Face, and Grandsire's Mind.

8.

So Qualifi'd is He to Reign, Whose Active Body, and Strong Brain, Puts Mars and Neptune to the stand, He Riding Lord by Sea and Land.

9.

Ye Citizens, set wide Your Gates To Him who is the THREE ESTATES Sole Prop; A Prince of Deep Discerning, Pillar both of Law and Learning.

10.

This is a Day of Jubilee; Let all be Debonair, and free To Quaff what London's Conduits carry, Burdeux Wine, or Old Canary.

11.

Musick ne'er was better heard On such an April's Twenty Third, Than This, where Air and Earth conspire In Consort to make up the Quire.

12.

For GEORGE and JAMES Our Tutelary Guardians, joyntly keep and carry A Correspondence, GEORGE Translated Long since to Bliss, and there Instated; And JAMES by Heaven's Decree appointed Britain's Ruler, GOD's ANOINTED.

13.

To Him let Britain's North and South, Give Praise with Mutual Heart and Mouth, And cleave in Love and true Communion To Him, who is the GOD of Ʋnion.

'Tis HE, 'Tis HE that can alone Guard and support Great JAMES his Throne, Who sits here SECOND unto None.
