Then heed not the threats of the Jacobin crew, Like the Stave Dealer's casks which were mark'd EARTH- Then be true to your King, to Coke, and your Cause, say: FREEDOM TRIUMPHANT OVER -OPPRESSION. TUNE-POOR JACK. Unshackled by Int'rest, unaw'd by the Great, The Cause of Fair Freedom is ours. Shall Oppressors now boast we are held in their chains? With impunity treat us as Slaves? No! the heart whence proceeds the warm blood in our veins, All their taunts and their menaces braves; Not vain is the contest, though arduous the fight, When Tyranny marshalls its pow'rs, Though they multiply fast as the shades of the night, Still, the Triumph of Freedom is ours. The spark that so long half-extinguish'd has shone, Shall yet from the ashes arise; Alike by the blasts of oppression 'tis blown, Though Fools with disloyalty seek to upbraid Though they brand us with infamy, still they shall find How futile the wish to oppress the Free Mind, Spuib against MR. COKE. DANIEL'S INVITATION ΤΟ NOTTINGHAM. HASTE, Come our dear Daniel, thy council may aid us, Our plots they've expos'd--their curst virtue betray'd us, Come Daniel, dear Daniel, without so much bidding, Why, why shall we tamely sit weeping and wailing, Come Daniel, dear Daniel, &c. While we thumb and coerce, we borrow the lingo Come Daniel, dear Daniel, &c. Yet 'tis hard to dissemble so much about Freedom, Come Daniel, dear Daniel, &c. In Nottingham once, like the rest of the nation," Come Daniel, dear Daniel, &c. Ah! what will our grandeur and riches bestead us, Come Daniel, dear Daniel, &c. HINTS To MR. BOWLES for more Postscripts. 6 703 9 707 Dreadful to relate! On the memorable day which closed Mr. Birch's canvass, the Jacobins of Nottingham, though calling themselves Whigs, with a satanic spirit, dug up the bodies of two Cokcites, slain at the last -Election, of the Names of Mac Nobody and Nic Shadow. Having previously pulled down the adjacent houses for a supply of fuel, and provided themselves with an enormous Gridiron, formed from the wreck of two hundred Lace frames, from the extensive Manufactory of Baseless, Vision, Vapour and Co. tried friends of Mr. Coke, they kindled an immense fire in the Market place; then slicing these poor, unearthed victims to their demoniac fury, they spread the pieces on the Gridiron, which beginning to frizzle, sent forth in curling smoke a savoury smell to the wide stretched nostrils of the surrounding Cannibals. It is necessary to relate, that the acting Cooks on this occasion, were all Females, and all naked: that Citizen RAWHEAD was President af the feast, and Citizen BLOODYBONES Vice. Having stolen a large and cheap cauldron from a neighbouring shop. ' President Rawhead detached a foraging party, to bring in all the dogs, cats, monkies, rabbits, parrots, and other domestic animals belonging to the friends of Mr. Coke, which he slew one by one, letting their blood trickle into the cauldron.-Having finished this cruel work, he drank of the purple tide, handed it about in liqueur glasses to his friends, and declared that he liked it better than shrub, Owing to the dreadful noise, the toasts could not be collected; but from one man, with lungs like bellows, the most horrible imprecations against Mr. Bowles were distinctly heard. Some who could not get within smell of the gridiron, contented themselves with devilling a dog or cat steak at the end of pitchforks, which they seasoned according to their own particular gout. There being only one monkey, Rawhead claimed it as a bonne bouche for himself, but these friends of equality, all insisted on sharing the delicious morsel. From words they soon came to blows, and couching their pitchforks, ülted at each other with the rage of demons; in short, it was an infernal tournament. Rawhead was observed high above the rest, bestriding the body of prostrate pug, and brandishing his ponderous trident, he was however felled to the ground by Vice, who in his turn yielded up his claim with his life. The battle soon became so confused, and the combatants, so intermixed, that they all fell by mutual wounds. On seeing this, the females, like so many Dido's, rushed into the flames, and atoned for their crimes by a voluntary death. It is known, that the Magistrates, if they did not instigate the people to these dreadful scenes, at least connived at them; if they were not perambulating the market place at the time, they were at least sitting still in their houses; and if they were not sober I This was not the first time that this cauldron was stolen. spectators, they were certainly drunk; nay, by sonio it is reported that one Alderman with equally divided coat laps, was seen warming his hinder parts in an unconcerned manner, at the general conflagration that afterwards took place. A MODERATE MAN. A HINT to a "MODERATE MAN." The Burgesses of Nottingham will feel themselves highiy gratified, if the Author of "Hints to MR. BOWLES for more Postscripts" will condescend to publish an EXPLANATION of that MOST ELEGANT rhapsody!! On investigation, its sublime metaphors are found to be toa DIGNIFIED for the comprehension of the learned; and its INCOMPRE HENSIBLE EXCENTRICITY too ambiguous for the illiterate. ORIGIN of JACOBINISM. As it has been, Time immemorial, deemed most honourable to those who can trace their Origin the farthest back-the Laurel, undoubtedly, in this instance, belongs to the JACOBINS, and none shall ever pluck it from their Brows. The Honorable fraternity of Free-Masons may boast of Hiram, Solomon,-nay, of old Adam himself, as being the first Founder of their Mysteries; yet all must allow that the CLOVEN-FOOTED PROMUL GATOR of the Doctrine of EQUALITY, existed long before any of them. But as the only true Account of him is recorded in a Book that his Proselites, (the Jacobins) seldom, or, perhaps, never look into-I |
