We’ll melt all their Bodkins the quicker
Into Sack, and so drink them away,
We’ll spend the demeans o’ th’ Bishops & Deans,
And over the Presbyter sway.

The nimble St. Patrick is sunk in a bog,
And his Country-men sadly cry, Oh hone, Oh hone,
St. Andrew and ’s kirk-men are lost in a fog,

Whilst Jockie the stirrop shall hold,
The Citie’s our Mule for example,
While we thus in plenty are roll’d,
Each delicate Dish shall but answer our wish,
And our drink shall be cordial Gold.

Burn all your Poetry, and throw away your reading.
