Old SAY and PREDICTIONS Verified and fulfilled, Touching the young King of SCOTLAND and his gued Subjects  Jockey. 
I Jockey turn the stone of all your plots,  
For none turns faster than the turn coat Scots.  Presbyter. 
We for our ends did make thee King be sure,  
Not to ●…le us, we will not that endure.  King. 
You deep dissemblers I know what you do,  
And for revenge's sake, I will dissemble too.  

THE SCOTS HOLDING THEIR YOUNG KING'S NOSE TO THE GRINDSTONE  
Come to the Grindstone Charles 'tis now to late  
To recollect 'tis presbiterian fate  
You Covinant pretenders must Ibee:  
The subject of yover Tradgie Comedy:   
THis Emblem needs no learned Exposition,  
The World knows well enough the sad condition  
Of regal Power, and Prerogative  
Dead, and dethroned in England, now alive  
In Scotland, where they seem to love the Lad,  
If he'll be more obsequious than his Dad.  
And Act according to Kirk Principles,  
More subtle than were Delphic Oracles.  
For let him lie, dissemble, kill and slay,  
he's a good Prince that will the Kirk obey.  
This blind obedience teach the Popes of Rome,  
And Popes of Lambeth we have had at home:  
Whose doctrine made our English royal State  
As odious as the Italian Potentate.  
But now the Scots all falsehoods do engross,  
And will defend them with St. Andrews Cross.  
They will protest against all violence,  
'Gainst sacred Kings, yet blast their innocence.  
Abhor that Civil Power that dares take  
The life of Kings away, yet way will make  
For justice stroke both by their Tongue and Pen,  
And then accuse our State for Murdering men.  
Did not the Kirk-men Presbyrerian Scots  
Thus Crown and Sceptre with the righteous spots  
Of blood and tyranny besmear, and stir our State  
To do Heroic Justice, and t'expiate  
With blood the blood of many thousands spilt  
By one whom they more infamous with guilt  
Of horrid murder made, than all those ten  
Vile persecuting Emperors and monstrous men?  
But Law and Justice at the last being done  
On the hated Father, now they love the Son,  
And now have Crowned their Convert Proselyte,  
Whom they adore, if he adore the right,  
And dictates of the Scottish Hierarchy,  
With which the Crown and Sceptre must comply,  
And be subordinate unto, for Kirk must rule,  
This is a Tenet of the Romish School.  
Then stoop gued King, it was thy Father's Fate  
To be so indulgent to that grand Prelate,  
Whose old impostures now have guled, and can  
Transform a Scottish Levite from a man  
Into a Monster Sphinx, whose knotty sense  
In his dark riddles nonce intelligence  
Can extricate; so Kirk-mens' subtle styles  
Wrapped in religious Covenants beguiles  
The Laic Jockeys, who at their command  
Will daret invade and spoil their Neighbours Land.  
Turn Jockey turn (for gold will turn thy heart  
And make thee to renounce in Christ a part)  
The Grindstone to make sharp thy Levites Laws  
Or else t'abate the edge of regal Cause,  
And privilege. And Jockey for thy pains  
Great treasures, pleasures, offices, and gains  
Shall be thy large Reward when England's wonne,  
Till then hang on the hopes which thou hast spun.  
Lo here the Chicken of the Eagle lies  
Like to be made a Scottish Sacrifice.  
But, wants he Kingcraft to create a Plot  
To undermine the Sicophanting Scot?  
No; he'll a Presbyterian Brother be,  
And vow to ratify their Hierarchy,  
Nay more, he'll not disdain in show to be  
Subject to their proud Kirk's Supremacy:  
The Sins of's Father's house he will bewail,  
Mourn and lament under a Scottish Veil.  
But this religious mock we all shall see,  
Will soon the downfall of their Fabel be.  
Rouse up true English Hearts and let them see  
The sad effects of Masked Hypocrisy,  
Curb their proud hearts that they in time may know  
That God is working of their overthrow.  
Yet why should valiant Soldiers fight and toil  
To get the nothing of a barren soil?  
And for a speedy issue to these wars  
Heaven send them store of fearful fatal jars.  
As in a Glass, that they (though late) may see  
What 'tis attends the STEWARD's Family.  

COurteous Reader, Although this Emblme doth chiesly represent the Rigid Presbytery of Scotland, yet it is too apparent, they have many Friends both of the Clergy and Gentry in England, that are not behind hand in assisting them, in their present actings, and for so much as concerns our present occasion, I shall briefly cite Mr. family's words expressed in his Astrological predictions this present year, 1651. wherein he ingeniously confesseth, he hath no malice, either to Presbyterian or Malignant, except they disturb our quiet, and molest our present Government and Council of State; but in the second page of his book, he describs the Parliament of England's perfectionall figure, for the 11. year of their sitting, from which he concludes the Genuine sense of that quadrant aspect, runs thus, or doth signify in effect thus, that our present state shall be still, a great part of this year dangerously molested and pestered by a refractory people of their own, called a Scotified Clergy, a generation of men from whom both the Spirit of Truth, and the meek Spirit of obedience, due by the Laws of God unto their Superiors is departed: certainly these men do our Parliament more mischief, and whole Nation moe prejudice, than an Army of Foreign Forces would do, let God reward them according to their iniquity; from the second figure, he concludes, that the present power or Counsel of State shall stand firm, and shall not be dissolved, by any earthly power, worldly force or treachery, during this annual resolution. Observe this also, viz. That forty years were the English under the government of two Scottish Kings, even just as many years as the Children of Israel did wander in the Wilderness before they came unto rest, God hath now delivered us from that servitude, and we are very near entering into the Land of Canaan, viz. liberty, if we repine not at God's mercies, nor rebel against his authority, we shall assuredly enjoy it.  
2 The grand cause of the Scots being at variance and enmity with us, is our change of government, and why may not England change again a third and a fourth time, if they see good, and ask Scotland no leave, it being a right in all Nations to alter their government, for the public benefit; Scotland may take notice, how long they were in former times without a King, and how little power they afforded him, certainly it was their ancient custom, to hold his Nose to it, with the Bridle both of Kirke and State, so that this is no new or strange Emblem of them; the difference betwixt them is this, that we having cast off their King, it is their design to settle him upon us again, by force, they proclaimed him King of Great Britain, etc. But we have more reason to break the line of succession, made up of tyranny, cruelty and oppression: The Norman bastard the Father of them all, had no other title to the Crown but his long sword, by which he became Conqueror against the Laws and liberties of England, and after him proceeded his Sons, and their Successors obtained the Crown, one from another, by power and policy, till the time of Henry the seventh, who laid claim to it by the same title also, of Conquest, after he had slain Richard the third, save that he descended from a Bastard of John of Ga●nt, and from this King, did our late Tyrant King CHARLES derive his title, he being descended from a Daughter of that Henry married into Scotland, by virtue whereof his Father K. James, by the unhappy policy of some Courtiers, did obtain the Crown, who was then attended with a heavy curse, and terrible plague, into England, if it were no more but the weak and unjust title of the usurping pretenders, the English Nation have sufficient cause to cast off this accursed Monarchy, but which is more, through all their reign hath been exercised, a constant course of tyranny, for not one of them since William the Conqueror, but did exceedingly abuse, and enslave the people, as the Chronicle makes mention: So that it was nobly done of our Parliament to lay hold on a season of liberty, after the Nation had groaned under slavery, for five or six hundred years. Suppose the title of this young King had been good and right, hath not the Father's treason cut off the Son? hath he not from the beginning been in actual war against the Parliament? hath he not had his Father's Counselors, and principles? and hath he not been bred up under popery and prelacy, and hath had hand in the blood of the three Nations, making use of all Parties, to serve his own malicious ends and interest, and are not England's eyes yet open, to see what will be the sad condion, and woeful effects of it? If they should be so base spirited, as to suffer this young pretender to take rooting again, to bring them back into slavery, and Monarchcall bondage, a yoke too heavy for England's shoulders to bear.  
I will conclude with an old Prophecy of a Jesuit in Hen. VII. time, of all the Kings and Queens that should succeed in England; thus, Mars, Puer, Allecto, Virgo, Vulpes, Leo, Nallus. The English of it is this, Mars the God of war, Hen. 8. Puer, a Boy, Edward the 6. Alect●, a Fury, Queen Mary, Virgo, a maiden Queen Elizabeth, Vulper, a Fox King James, Leo a Lion King Charles, Nullus, None.
