The BROKER.
Tories, Tories, why despairing,
Never let your courage fail,
Let us still be bold and daring
And our cause may yet prevail.
Tho' the Rebels now oppress us
Boasting mighty things they do,
Let these not too much distress us—
—Curse on all the motley crew!

—Curse on all the motley crew!
Trusting to their French Alliance
Still they hope their point to gain,
Still they [illeg.] our King defiance
And by force the war maintain.
Tho' we cannot quite suppress them,
We should not our hopes resign,
Secret note may yet distress them
And confound their bold design.

[illeg.] I not their strength invaded
With the mighty pow'r of gold:—
See their currency degraded
This shall to our King be told,
When great George shall hear my story
When my claim's before him laid,
He'll reward his faithful Tory,
Sure, my fortune will be made.—

But methinks is yonder Alley
I behold a cock ey'd Jew,
His designs with mine will tally
Like the Baker's [illeg.] so true,
Speak my worthy friend the Printer,
Aaron calls I must away:
Come, I'm sure you are no stinter
Freely think, and freely say.
