Notes:

Imprint reads: 'Printed in the year of Restauration, 1660'; no details of printer or publisher.
Lines from Proverbs 25:5 printed beneath the text of the poem: 'Take away the wicked from before the King, and his Throne shall be established in Righteousness.'
The poem is predominantly a satire on Republicans from the 1650s but its depiction of the court cleaned up and prepared for royalty, along with the quote from the Bible, makes it also a response to the Restoration. |
