An imitation of Andrew Marvel's celebrated ballad called
Royal Resolutions, written in the reign of King Charles the
Second.
[signed] X.Y.Z.
ROYAL RESOLUTIONS.
When our master, God Bless him, ascended the throne, 
(So pious a monarch sure never was known)
He made a great fuss, 
How that, bore among us, 
He was British all over in blood and in bone;
Which delighting his subjects, they roar'd and huzza'd, 
While these resolutions his majesty made.
