Gallant News of late I bring,
Tidings of chusing now a King,
Whereby true Subjects may rejoice
In chusing them so sweet a choyce
That love and peace may so agree,
To end the days of misery,
To the Tune of, Royal News, Royal News.

THe Prince he will come soon,
gallant news,
gallant news,
To inioy his Crown
With glory and renown,
gallant news,
If they can agree
In love and unity,
Then we all shall see
An end of misery,
gallant news,
gallant news,
The Army doth consent
gallant news, &c.
With a Free Parliament
All dangers to prevent,
gallant news
To ioyn with heart and hand
For the good of England
The Gospel to defend,
God send that happy end
gallant news, &c.
Then let us all reioice
gallant news &c.
Since they have made a choice,
With heart and eke with voice,
gallant news
In doing of that thing
Which will us comfort bring
In chusing of a King,
We will reioyce and sing
gallant news, &c.
Then trading will be rife,
gallant news,
gallant news,
And we shall have no strife
But lead a quiet life,
gallant news,
We shall not be so feast,
For to be so opprest,
But we shall live at rest,
The times will be at best,
gallant news,
gallant news.

The second Part

to the same Tune.

THe poor that lives in want
gallant news,
gallant news,
They will know no scant
England such good will plant,
gallant news
Charity will prove so great
To feed the needy with meat
When Charls is on his seat
As King and Ruler meet,
gallant news,
gallant news.
And love will flourish so
gallant news, &c.
That we shall know no wo
Between our friend and foe,
gallant news,
Then England may say,
It was a happy day,
That Charls may bear the sway,
Wherein such comfort lay,
gallant news, &c.
The Gentry hath been sad,
but gallant news, &c.
Which will make them glad,
Such comfort's to be had,
gallant news,
VVhen neither sess nor lay
For them at all to pay,
At home they may stay,
They need to fear no fray,
gallant news, &c.
Then may the Plow-man plow,
gallant news, &c.
And after he may sow,
To pay where he doth owe,
gallant news,
And then he need not fear
No dangers to come near,
But to love his Dear,
And drink good ale and bear,
gallant news, &c.
As formerly were done,
gallant news,
gallant news,
Before these wars begun
Till the rising of the Sun,
gallant news,
By him we soon shall see
An end of misery,
If once we do agree
In love and unity,
gallant news,
gallant news.
