THE ENGLISH INDEPENDANT:
An Old Ballad, (Discovered in the Ruins of Herculaneum,) set
to a new tune.
Ye gentle, generous Whigs, give ear,
I sing--what none of you need fear--
I sing (and mark the end on't!)
The knave in piety profound;
With phyz so long, and head so round,
  The crafty, crying,
  Cheating, lying,
  English Independant.
