But what's in our Lasses: And could have quench'd thy Cupiscence, According to the _Classes_: But all the Parish see it plain, Since thou art in this pickle; Thou art an INDEPENDENT Quean, And lov'st a CONVENTICLE. _Help House of Commons_, &c. Alas now each _Malignant_ Rogue, Will all the World perswade; That she that's Spouse unto a Dog, May be an _Elder's_ Maid: They'll jeer us if abroad we stir, Good Master _Elder_ stay; Sir, of what _Classis_ is your Cur? And then what can we say? _Help House of Commons_, &c. They'll many graceless Ballads sing, Of a PRESBYTERIAN; That a _Lay Elder_ is a thing Made up half Dog, half Man: Out, out, said he, (and smote her down) Was Mankind grown so scant? There's scarce another Dog in Town, Had took the COVENANT. _Help House of Commons_, &c. Then _Swash_ began to look full grim, And _Jane_ did thus reply; Sir, you thought nought too good for him, You fed your Dog too high: 'Tis true he took me in the lurch, And leap'd into my Arms; But (as I hope to come at Church) I did your Dog no harm. _Help House of Commons_, &c.

Hers was but _Fornication_ found, For which she felt the Lash: But his was _Bugg'ry_ presum'd, Therefore they hanged _Swash_: What will become of _Bishops_ then, Or _Independency_? For now we find both Dogs and Men, Stand up for PRESBYTRY. _Help House of Commons_, &c. She might have took a _Sow-gelder_, With _Synod-men_ good store, But she would have a _Lay-Elder_, With Two Legs and Two more: Go tell the _Assembly_ of Divines, Tell Adoniram blue; Tell _Burgess_, _Marshall_, _Case_ and _Vines_, Tell _Now-and-Anon_ too. _Help House of Commons_, &c. Some say she was a _Scottish_ Girl, Or else (at least) a Witch; But she was born in _Colchester_, Was ever such a Bitch: Take heed all Christian Virgins now, The _Dog-Star_ now prevails; Ladys beware your Monkeys too, For Monkeys have long Tails. _Help House of Commons_, &c. Bless _King_ and _Queen_, and send us Peace, As we had Seven Years since: For we remember no _Dog-days_, While we en
