But if o'er the Town
I observe a Black Gown,
Who is proper to make a fine Farce on;
As they late made Essays,
To Preach down all the Plays,
I shall make bold to Act up the Parson.
Thus changing advice
With the Grave and the Wise,
Let each one reform in his station;
And so I shall cease,
In the laudible phrase,
Of Bless the good Queen and the Nation.

or Petition of Madamoiselle Gallia, or the
Statue of France, plac'd amongst the other
Nations, before the Cathedral of St. Paul's
in London, to the Statue of our late Soveraign
Lady Queen Ann, now Expos'd to

to Hear the Te Deum for the Glorious
Peace. The Words made in Jargon of
English and French, to a Pretty St.
Germains Air.
MAdam je vous prie you will right me,
Injurys maka me cry;
Do late you had reason to spite me,
Now Ime your ver good Ally:
Aw, let not your Vassal den slight me,
Now, now in dis Grand season of Joy.
