To the Tune of Joan Sanderson:
The Cushion-Dance at White-Hall by way of Masquerade.—
Enter Godfrey Aldworth, follow'd by the King and Duke Hand in Hand.
King.
The Trick of Trimming is a fine Trick,
And shall we go try it once again?
Duke.
The Plot it will no farther go.
King.
I pray thee wise Brother, why say you so?
Duke.
Because the Bastard will not come to.
King.
He must come to, and he shall come to,
And he must come whether he will or no.
Enter the Duke of
Monmouth out at heels.
Chorus.
Welcome thou Rebel Son, Welcome,
Welcome.
The Dance ended.
Enter the Duke of
Grafton looking wisely, the
Duke of
Richmond with the Keys of the Muse, his
Grace of
Albemarle with his Commission,
Sidney
with his Pardon, they dance the Hay.—
Albemarle
falls asleep,
Richmond gets to's Book,
Grafton looks
like a Fool, and
Sidney lets a Fart.
Exeunt Omnes.
