Then a Hea [...]th to Great JAMES whom kind Heav'n did Restore us, through Battels, through Seas, and through Fire; The Angels that Guard Him, will joyn in a Chorus, and Crown ev'ry Glass with a Quire. Then a Health, &c.

With Conquest Crown'd, fresh Conquest Crown'd,
[Great Caesar fills theThrone,
A Sword is His Scepter, and Lawrels His Crown.
Rash Phaeton Firing,
The World with aspiring,
Too high with his Steeds over thrown;
The Caitif forsaken,
A Captive is taken,
See, their Catalin's Vanquisht, the Plebeians are flown,
And the Faction's great Da [...] is now tumbl' d [...]own;
See, their Catalin's Vanquish'd, &c.
Down falls the proud Babel,
The Head of the Rabble.
Great JOVE at His Feet has the Cyclop subjected,
And brought the Slaves under,
Struck dead with His Thunder.
Confirm'd in His Throne by His Valour protected,
No more the proud Hogan,
On the Seas shall be Mogan;
Our JOVE does Monsieur desp [...]se,
What Foe dare upbraid Him?
What Power Invade Him?
Where Courage with Conduct, where Courage with Con­duct,
With Conduct makes Conquest His prize.
Then a Health to Great JAMES, &c.
