The totestant Churches will quickly pull down:
Sin hey brave Catholicks, O rare Catholicks, O
Fin

Or by Bell, Book and Candle, to Pot they must go:
Sing hey brave, &c.

His Yoak is but easie, his Words are discreet:

He'll come with his Clergy in Scarlet attire,
And teach you good Breeding with Faggot and Fire:

The Papists are Cruel, for they that eat Gods
Must needs have strong Stomachs, and likewise the odds,
They'll poison your Pulpits, and whip you with Rods:

O rare Catholicks,
ho
Fine Carholicks,
Excellent Catholicks, O!
