A DIALOGUE BETWEEN DOCTOR TITUS, AND BEDLOWS GHOST.
Concerning the Bayling the LORDS out of the
TOWER.
TITUS.
s'Death! Who calls?
Titus!
Booger Le Diable!
Titus!
Be Damn'd.
You must be Hang'd First.
Be Burnt at the Dog First. I wou'd Cut my Throat with E—x, or [...]ve in a Garret with Sr. Patience, rather then out of pure Guilt of Confence for my, Villanous Lying; Sneak out of the World as you did, with a [...] to you.
With a Rope to you; for a Lye will never Choak thee, otherwise thou [...]'st got the Start of me; and the Devil thy Father had given thee the Prehe [...]ence before me.
Well, I have a Thousand Substantial Common-Wealth, Cits, will [...]nd by me still.
And does thou hope they will be all Parliament Men?
Yes, By your Favour, (Brother Insolence) for a Parliament, and for a [...]er too.
Yes, I'le warrant you, and for a New Popish Plot, and a Popish Exclu [...] Bill, like Prince Rupert's Monkey; they Cut themselves off by Foolishly [...]ping into the Piece they have too wantonly Fir'd, and blow themselves up [...] own Train. But pray you does your Monkyship think there are no [...]al People in the City?
Loyal! What dost tell me of Loyalty? I keep no such Company, nei [...] do I desire their Acquaintance. What did ever I get from a Loyal Man, [...] a base Affront, or a broken Pate, or a scalding Dish in my Face.
But if ever I live to see a Parliament.—
Thou hast nothing in thy Head but a Parliament, it has no being any [...] else, and yet thou hast it at thy Tongues end, like a Scotch Green Goose, [...] a Parrot, that can say nothing but Tut Titus, and Walk Knave Walk. To [...] thee out of this Language, prethee tell me, what dost thou think of the [...]uling of the Lords, and what does the World think of thee and thy sham'd [...]s?
I'le say no more, but if ever a Parliament Sit in England.—
Th [...]y wo [...]d still bear it with Patience, as you see they have done several Years together, wh [...]lst some of thy Fa [...]t [...]on are so Impatent of Restrai [...] ▪ that they had rather Cut their Throats, then suffer a Months Imprisonment.
Hum! Verily, and in Verba Sacerdotis, I see Popery and Idolat [...]y bre [...]ng in upon us, like a [...]ghty Current, it cometh like a Land Flood a [...] a great [...] that drives all before it, and will break us to peices like Earthen [...]s one ag [...]n [...] another. The Pilgrims are coming in, in whole Armies; Ver [...]y Brother, had the Frost held but one Week longer, they had been all here [...] [...]t already.
Yes, with [...]ern [...]nt [...]s black Bills, and blank Commissions. But [...] do [...]t think will become of thee, when this Invincible Army shall Land upon [...] Downs? They'd har [...]ly pamper the [...] up with Six Dishes a Day, and as ma [...]y Bottles of fresh Burgundy.
Six Lashes and as many Halters. But while I can scape 'em, were't not better [...] at Home amongst my Friends, then starve abroad amongst [...] Enemies?
Abroad? Where can'd thou hide thy self abroad, from the loud Cry of Innocent Bl [...]ud? Gen [...]va will not receive theee.
The Church which thou hast Renounc'd will be no Sanctuary; thou w [...]lt [...]e drag'd out of the Pulpit where thou hast Blasphem [...]d, and torn from the A [...] wh [...]h thou hast profain'd.
I know no Refuge thou hast left thee now but to Don John, or the M [...] A [...]; one cannot choose but entertain thee, for thy Intrecate Acquaintence w [...]th him formerly, and the others for Parson Elliot's Sake.
I will go to neither, I will follow my Friend Patience, and Coop myself up in a Cock-Loft in Southwark.
There I will set up an Evidence School, to Instruct all People Old and Yo [...] for Twelve Pence a Week in all manner of Villany, the most Compendious [...] to Bugger, Plunder, Forge, Cheat, Swear, and Lye too, and again, backward and forward upon all sides, and all Occasions with they self, Prance or any o [...]e [...] Evidence Master in Europe.
Now I am gone, how long will that Trade hold before thou [...]t hang'd.
Then▪ Actum est Caron perijsti Titus, and there's an End.
No, thou shalt not have so Favourable a passage, tho the Devil himsel [...] wait to wast the over.
Thou art destin'd for a worse Sentance, which I am sent as thy Judg to pronounce before thee ere thou have the Honour to be hang'd. Tubman shall Ri [...]e thee to Death, Bowman shall burn thee, and Reading shall Sing the into the [...] quiem of the Wretched. The Women shall Stone thee for thy abuse of the S [...] The Rabble who proclaim'd thee a Saviour of the Nation shall tear thee in p [...]eces for an Imposture. Thy Quarters shall Adorn the City Gates, and thy b [...] Fa [...]e exalted on the same Pinacle, shall make Nolls Copper Nose blush to see himself outdone by thy Matchless Impudence.
When this is done, I shall be one of thy Insernal Guard, to receive thee in our Dominions, and prepare thee a Place with thy Brother Turn-Cassoc [...] H [...] Peters.
