[When Anjou by Ruvigny was compel'd]
The Third Cut represents a very melancholy Conference
between Lewis the XIV. Madam la Valiere,
Madam de Montespan, Philip the V. the pretended
Prince of Wales, the Duke of Berwick, the Count de
Tolouse, Mareschal Thesse, and others, on the dismal
Prospect of the Mighty Monarch's Affairs, after Philip the
V. was driven from Madrid, 1706. by the Earl of Galway.
When Anjou by Ruvigny was compel'd
To quit the Spanish Empire with the Field;
To Council Lewis calls his Sons, a Store
As great as good King Priam had of yore:
His Concubines among the rest were there,
And English Modena's pretended Heir.
Much Moan, and not a little Noise was made,
And all the Fault upon the Monarch laid;
Who nothing in his own Defence can say,
But that for Help to
Genevieve he'll pray:
And if he sues the Female Saint in vain,
The Crown of France must follow that of Spain.
