A HASTY DEFENCE OF A LATE COALITION.
Says F---, "If I ever my honour should place
In the hands of the Lord with the broad bacon face, 
Then brand me, my countrymen, ever as hell born, 
With a name that is viler than Murray+ or Shelburne."
. . . [12 more lines]
[9-10th line, referring to loyalists]
They fir'd, and retir'd, like the great King of Kings, 
And his vassal Achilles (as old Homer sings)
+Regent of Scotland in the Minority of James I.
