+THE
+STORM.
+
+AN
+ESSAY.
+
+
+
+
+ 1704 title: An Elegy on the Author of the True-Born-English-Man.
+ With an essay on the late storm.
+ By the author of the Hymn to the Pillory.
+
+
+
+
+THE STORM. AN ESSAY.
+
+
+ I'm told, _for we have News among the Dead_,
+ Heaven lately spoke, but few knew what it said;
+ The Voice, in loudest Tempests spoke,
+ And Storms, which Nature's strong Foundation shook.
+ _I felt it hither_, and I'd have you know
+ I heard the Voice, and knew the Language too.
+ Think it not strange I heard it here,
+ No Place is so remote, but when _he speaks_, they hear.
+ Besides, tho' I am dead in Fame,
+ I never told you where I am. 10
+
+ Tho' I have lost Poetick Breath,
+ I'm not in perfect State of Death:
+ From whence this _Popish Consequence_ I draw,
+ _I'm in the_ Limbus _of the Law_.
+ Let me be where I will I heard the Storm,
+ From every Blast _it eccho'd thus, REFORM_;
+ I felt the mighty Shock, and saw the Night,
+ When Guilt look'd pale, and own'd the Fright;
+ And every Time the raging Element
+ Shook _London_'s lofty Towers, at every Rent 20
+ The falling Timbers gave, _they cry'd, REPENT_.
+
+ I saw, when all the stormy Crew,
+ Newly commission'd from on high,
+ Newly instructed what to do,
+ In Lowring, Cloudy, Troops drew nigh:
+ They hover'd o'er the guilty Land,
+ As if they had been backward to obey;
+ As if they wondred at the sad Command,
+ And pity'd those they shou'd destroy.
+ But Heaven, that long had gentler Methods tried, 30
+ And saw those gentler Methods all defied,
+ Had now resolv'd to be obey'd.
+ The Queen, an Emblem of the _soft, still, Voice_,
+ Had told the Nation how to make their Choice;
+ Told them the only Way to Happiness
+ Was by the Blessed Door of Peace.
+ But the unhappy Genius of the Land,
+ Deaf to the Blessing, as to the Command,
+ Scorn the high Caution, and contemn the News,
+ And all the blessed Thoughts of Peace refuse. 40
+ Since Storms are then the Nation's Choice,
+ _Be Storms their Portion, said the Heavenly Voice_:
+ He said, and I could hear no more,
+ So soon th' obedient Troops began to roar:
+ So soon the blackning Clouds drew near,
+ And fill'd with loudest Storms the trembling Air:
+ I thought I felt the World's Foundation shake,
+ And lookt when all the wondrous Frame would break.
+ I trembl'd as the Winds grew high,
+ And so did many a braver Man than I: 50
+ For he whose Valour scorns his Sence,
+ Has chang'd his Courage into Impudence.
+ Man may to Man his Valour show,
+ And 'tis his Vertue to do so.
+ But if he's of his Maker not afraid,
+ He's not courageous then, but mad.
+
+ Soon as I heard the horrid Blast,
+ And understood how long 'twould last,
+ View'd all the Fury of the Element,
+ Consider'd well by whom 'twas sent, 60
+ And _unto whom_ for Punishment:
+ It brought my Hero to my Mind,
+ _William_, the Glorious, Great, and Good, and Kind.
+ Short Epithets to his Just Memory;
+ The first he was to all the World, _the last to me_.
+
+ The mighty Genius to my Thought appear'd,
+ Just in the same Concern he us'd to show,
+ When private Tempests us'd to blow,
+ Storms which the Monarch more than Death or Battel fear'd.
+ When Party Fury shook his Throne, 70
+ And made their mighty Malice known,
+ _I've heard the sighing Monarch say_,
+ The Publick Peace so near him lay,
+ It took the Pleasure of his Crown away.
+ It fill'd with Cares his Royal Breast;
+ Often he has those Cares Prophetickly exprest,
+ That when he should the Reins let go,
+ Heaven would some Token of its Anger show,
+ To let the thankless Nation see
+ How they despis'd their own Felicity. 80
+ This robb'd the Hero of his Rest,
+ Disturb'd the Calm of his serener Breast.
+
+ When to the Queen the Scepter he resign'd,
+ With a resolv'd and steady Mind,
+ Tho' he rejoic'd to lay the Trifle down,
+ He pity'd Her to whom he left the Crown:
+ Foreseeing long and vig'rous Wars,
+ Foreseeing endless, private, Party Jarrs,
+ Would always interrupt Her Rest,
+ And fill with Anxious Cares Her Royal Breast. 90
+ For Storms of Court Ambition rage as high
+ Almost as Tempests in the Sky.
+
+ Could I my hasty Doom retrieve,
+ And once more in the Land of Poets live,
+ I'd now the Men of Flags and Fortune greet,
+ And write an Elegy upon the Fleet.
+ First, those that on the Shore were idly found,
+ _Whom other Fate protects_, while better Men were drown'd,
+ They may thank God for being Knaves on Shore,
+ But sure the Q---- will never trust them more. 100
+
+ They who rid out the Storm, and liv'd,
+ But saw not whence it was deriv'd,
+ Sensless of Danger, or the mighty Hand,
+ That could to cease, as well as blow, command,
+ Let such unthinking Creatures have a Care,
+ For some worse End prepare.
+ Let them look out for some such Day,
+ When what the Sea would not, _the Gallows may_.
+
+ Those that in former Dangers shunn'd the Fight,
+ But met their Ends in this Disast'rous Night, 110
+ Have left this Caution, tho' too late,
+ That all Events are known to Fate.
+ Cowards avoid no Danger when they run,
+ And Courage scapes the Death it would not shun;
+ 'Tis Nonsence from our Fate to fly,
+ All Men must once have Heart enough to die.
+
+ Those Sons of Plunder are below my Pen,
+ Because they are below the Names of Men;
+ Who from the Shores presenting to their Eyes
+ The Fatal _Goodwin_, where the Wreck of _Navies_ Lyes, 120
+ A thousand dying Saylors talking to the Skies.
+ From the sad Shores they saw the Wretches walk,
+ By Signals of Distress they talk;
+ There with one Tide of Life they're vext,
+ For all were sure to die the next.
+ The Barbarous Shores with Men and Boats abound,
+ The Men more Barbarous than the Shores are found;
+ Off to the shatter'd Ships they go,
+ And for the Floating Purchase Row.
+ They spare no Hazard, or no Pain, 130
+ But 'tis to save the Goods, and not the Men.
+ Within the sinking Supplaints Reach appear,
+ As if they'd mock their dying Fear.
+ Then for some Trifle all their Hopes supplant,
+ With Cruelty would make a _Turk_ relent.
+
+ If I had any _Satyr_ left to write,
+ Cou'd I with suited Spleen Indite,
+ My Verse should blast that Fatal Town,
+ And Drowned Saylors Widows pull it down;
+ No Footsteps of it should appear, 140
+ And Ships no more Cast Anchor there.
+ The Barbarous Hated Name of _Deal_ shou'd die,
+ Or be a Term of Infamy;
+ And till that's done, the Town will stand
+ A just Reproach to all the Land.
+
+ The Ships come next to be my Theme,
+ The Men's the Loss, I'm not concern'd for them;
+ For had they perish'd e'er they went,
+ Where to no Purpose they were sent,
+ The Ships might ha' been built again, 150
+ And we had sav'd the Money and the Men.
+ There the Mighty Wrecks appear,
+ _Hic Jacent_, Useless Things of War.
+ Graves of Men, and Tools of State,
+ There you lye too soon, there you lye too late.
+ But O ye Mighty Ships of War!
+ What in Winter did you there?
+ Wild _November_ should our Ships restore
+ To _Chatham_, _Portsmouth_, and the _Nore_,
+ So it was always heretofore, 160
+ For Heaven it self is not unkind,
+ If Winter Storms he'll sometimes send,
+ Since 'tis suppos'd the Men of War
+ Are all laid up, and left secure.
+
+ Nor did our Navy feell alone,
+ The dreadful Desolation;
+ It shook the _Walls of Flesh_ as well as Stone,
+ And ruffl'd all the Nation.
+ The Universal Fright
+ Made Guilty _H----_ expect his Fatal Night; 170
+ His harden'd Soul began to doubt,
+ And Storms grew high within, as they grew high without.
+
+ Flaming Meteors fill'd the Air,
+ But _Asgil_ miss'd his _Fiery Chariot_ there;
+ Recall'd his black blaspheming Breath,
+ And trembling paid his Homage unto Death.
+
+ _Terror appear'd in every Face_,
+ Even _Vile Blackbourn_ felt some shocks of Grace;
+ Began to feel the Hated Truth appear,
+ Began to fear, 180
+ After _he had Burlesqu'd a God_ so long,
+ He should at last be in the wrong.
+ Some Power he plainly saw,
+ (And seeing, felt a strange unusual Awe;)
+ Some secret Hand he plainly found,
+ Was bringing some strange thing to pass,
+ And he that neither God nor Devil own'd,
+ Must needs be at a loss to guess.
+ Fain he would not ha' guest the worst,
+ But Guilt will always be with Terror Curst. 190
+
+ Hell shook, for Devils Dread Almighty Power,
+ At every Shock they fear'd the Fatal Hour,
+ The Adamantine Pillars mov'd,
+ And Satan's _Pandemonium_ trembl'd too;
+ The tottering _Seraphs_ wildly rov'd,
+ Doubtful what the Almighty meant to do;
+ For in the darkest of the black Abode,
+ _There's not a Devil but believes a God_.
+ Old _Lucifer_ has sometimes try'd
+ _To have himself be Deify'd_; 200
+ But Devils nor Men the Being of God deny'd,
+ Till Men of late found out New Ways to sin,
+ And turn'd the Devil out to let the Atheist in.
+ But when the mighty Element began,
+ And Storms the weighty Truth explain,
+ Almighty Power upon the Whirlwind Rode,
+ And every Blast proclaim'd aloud
+ _There is, there is, there is_, a God.
+
+ Plague, Famine, Pestilence, and War,
+ Are in their Causes seen, 210
+ The true Originals appear
+ Before the Effects begin:
+ But Storms and Tempests are above our Rules,
+ Here our Philosophers are Fools.
+ The _Stagyrite_ himself could never show,
+ From whence, nor how they blow.
+ Tis all Sublime, 'tis all a Mystery,
+ They see no Manner how, nor Reason why;
+ _All Sovereign Being_ is the amazing Theme,
+ 'Tis all resolv'd to Power Supreme; 220
+ From this First Cause our Tempest came,
+ And let the Atheists spight of Sense Blaspheme,
+ They can no room for Banter find,
+ Till they produce another Father for the Wind.
+
+ _Satyr_, thy Sense of Sovereign Being Declare,
+ He made the Mighty Prince o'th' Air,
+ And Devils recognize him by their Fear.
+
+ Ancient as Time, and Elder than the Light,
+ Ere the First Day, or Antecedent Night,
+ Ere Matter into settl'd Form became, 230
+ And long before Existence had a Name;
+ Before th' Expance of indigested Space,
+ While the vast _No-where_ fill'd the Room of Place.
+ Liv'd _the First Cause_ The First Great _Where_ and _Why_,
+ Existing _to and from_ Eternity,
+ Of His Great Self, and _of Necessity_.
+ _This I call God_, that One great Word of Fear,
+ At whose great sound,
+ When from his Mighty Breath 'tis eccho'd round,
+ Nature pays Homage with a trembling bow, 240
+ And Conscious Men would faintly disallow;
+
+ The Secret Trepidation racks the Soul,
+ And while he says, no God, replies, thou Fool.
+ _But call it what we will_,
+ _First Being it had_, does Space and Substance fill.
+ Eternal Self-existing Power enjoy'd,
+ And whatsoe'er is so, _That same is God_.
+
+ If then it should fall out, as who can tell,
+ But that there is a Heaven and Hell,
+ Mankind had best consider well for fear 250
+ 'T should be too late when their Mistakes appear;
+ Such may in vain Reform,
+ Unless they do't before another Storm.
+
+ They tell us _Scotland_ scap'd the Blast;
+ No Nation else have been without a Taste:
+ All _Europe_ sure have felt the Mighty Shock,
+ 'T has been a Universal Stroke.
+ But Heaven has other Ways to plague the _Scots_,
+ As Poverty and Plots.
+ Her Majesty Confirms it, what She said, 260
+ I plainly heard it, tho' I'm dead.
+
+ The dangerous Sound has rais'd me from my Sleep,
+ I can no longer Silence keep,
+ Here _Satyr_'s thy Deliverance,
+ A Plot in _Scotland_, Hatch'd in _France_,
+ And Liberty the Old Pretence.
+ Prelatick Power with Popish join,
+ The Queens Just Government to undermine;
+ This is enough to wake the Dead,
+ The Call's too loud, it never shall be said 270
+ The lazy _Satyr_ slept too long,
+ When all the Nations Danger Claim'd his Song.
+
+ Rise _Satyr_ from thy sleep of legal Death,
+ And reassume Satyrick Breath;
+ What tho' to Seven Years sleep thou art confin'd,
+ Thou well may'st wake with such a Wind.
+ Such Blasts as these can seldom blow,
+ But they're both form'd above and heard below.
+ Then wake and warn us now the Storms are past,
+ Lest Heaven return with a severer Blast. 280
+ Wake and inform Mankind
+ Of Storms that still remain behind.
+
+ If from this Grave thou lift thy Head,
+ They'll surely mind one risen from the Dead.
+ Tho' _Moses_ and the Prophets can't prevail,
+ A Speaking _Satyr_ cannot fail.
+ Tell 'em while secret Discontents appear,
+ There'll ne'er be _Peace and Union_ here.
+ They that for Trifles so contend, 290
+ Have something farther in their End;
+ But let those hasty People know,
+ The Storms above reprove the Storms below,
+ And 'tis too often known,
+ The Storms below do Storms above Forerun;
+
+ They say this was a High-Church Storm,
+ Sent out the Nation to Reform;
+ But th' Emblem left the Moral in the Lurch,
+ For't blew the Steeple down upon the Church.
+ From whence we now inform the People,
+ The danger of the Church is from the Steeple. 300
+ And we've had many a bitter stroke,
+ From Pinacle and Weather-Cock;
+ From whence the Learned do relate,
+ That to secure the Church and State,
+ The Time will come when all the Town
+ To save the Church, will pull the Steeple down.
+
+ Two Tempests are blown over, now prepare
+ For Storms of Treason and Intestine War.
+ The High-Church Fury to the North extends,
+ In haste to ruin all their Friends. 310
+ Occasional Conforming led the Way,
+ And now Occasional Rebellion comes in Play,
+ To let the Wond'ring Nation know,
+ That High-Church Honesty's an Empty Show,
+ A Phantasm of Delusive Air,
+ That as Occasion serves can disappear,
+ And Loyalty's a sensless Phrase,
+ An Empty Nothing which our interest sways,
+ And as that suffers this decays.
+
+ Who dare the Dangerous Secret tell, 320
+ _That Church-men can Rebel_.
+ Faction we thought was by the Whigs Engross'd,
+ And _Forty One_ was banter'd till the Jest was lost.
+ _Bothwel_ and _Pentland-Hills_ were fam'd,
+ And _Gilly Cranky_ hardly nam'd.
+ If Living Poets Dare not speak,
+ _We that are Dead_ must Silence break;
+ And boldly let them know the Time's at Hand.
+ When Ecclesiastick Tempests shake the Land.
+ Prelatick Treason from the Crown divides, 330
+ And now Rebellion changes sides.
+ Their Volumes with their Loyalty may swell,
+ But in their Turns too they Rebel;
+ Can Plot, Contrive, Assassinate,
+ And spight of Passive Laws disturb the State.
+ Let fair Pretences fill the Mouths of Men,
+ No fair Pretence shall blind my Pen;
+ They that _in such a Reign as this_ Rebel
+ Must needs be in Confederacy with Hell.
+ Oppressions, Tyranny and Pride,
+ May give some Reason to Divide; 340
+ But where the Laws with open Justice Rule,
+ He that Rebels _Must be both Knave and Fool_.
+ May Heaven the growing Mischief soon prevent,
+ And Traytors meet Reward in Punishment.

-
-THE STORM. AN ESSAY.
-
-
- I'm told, _for we have News among the Dead_,
- Heaven lately spoke, but few knew what it said;
- The Voice, in loudest Tempests spoke,
- And Storms, which Nature's strong Foundation shook.
- _I felt it hither_, and I'd have you know
- I heard the Voice, and knew the Language too.
- Think it not strange I heard it here,
- No Place is so remote, but when _he speaks_, they hear.
- Besides, tho' I am dead in Fame,
- I never told you where I am. 10
-
- Tho' I have lost Poetick Breath,
- I'm not in perfect State of Death:
- From whence this _Popish Consequence_ I draw,
- _I'm in the_ Limbus _of the Law_.
- Let me be where I will I heard the Storm,
- From every Blast _it eccho'd thus, REFORM_;
- I felt the mighty Shock, and saw the Night,
- When Guilt look'd pale, and own'd the Fright;
- And every Time the raging Element
- Shook _London_'s lofty Towers, at every Rent 20
- The falling Timbers gave, _they cry'd, REPENT_.
-
- I saw, when all the stormy Crew,
- Newly commission'd from on high,
- Newly instructed what to do,
- In Lowring, Cloudy, Troops drew nigh:
- They hover'd o'er the guilty Land,
- As if they had been backward to obey;
- As if they wondred at the sad Command,
- And pity'd those they shou'd destroy.
- But Heaven, that long had gentler Methods tried, 30
- And saw those gentler Methods all defied,
- Had now resolv'd to be obey'd.
- The Queen, an Emblem of the _soft, still, Voice_,
- Had told the Nation how to make their Choice;
- Told them the only Way to Happiness
- Was by the Blessed Door of Peace.
- But the unhappy Genius of the Land,
- Deaf to the Blessing, as to the Command,
- Scorn the high Caution, and contemn the News,
- And all the blessed Thoughts of Peace refuse. 40
- Since Storms are then the Nation's Choice,
- _Be Storms their Portion, said the Heavenly Voice_:
- He said, and I could hear no more,
- So soon th' obedient Troops began to roar:
- So soon the blackning Clouds drew near,
- And fill'd with loudest Storms the trembling Air:
- I thought I felt the World's Foundation shake,
- And lookt when all the wondrous Frame would break.
- I trembl'd as the Winds grew high,
- And so did many a braver Man than I: 50
- For he whose Valour scorns his Sence,
- Has chang'd his Courage into Impudence.
- Man may to Man his Valour show,
- And 'tis his Vertue to do so.
- But if he's of his Maker not afraid,
- He's not courageous then, but mad.
-
- Soon as I heard the horrid Blast,
- And understood how long 'twould last,
- View'd all the Fury of the Element,
- Consider'd well by whom 'twas sent, 60
- And _unto whom_ for Punishment:
- It brought my Hero to my Mind,
- _William_, the Glorious, Great, and Good, and Kind.
- Short Epithets to his Just Memory;
- The first he was to all the World, _the last to me_.
-
- The mighty Genius to my Thought appear'd,
- Just in the same Concern he us'd to show,
- When private Tempests us'd to blow,
- Storms which the Monarch more than Death or Battel fear'd.
- When Party Fury shook his Throne, 70
- And made their mighty Malice known,
- _I've heard the sighing Monarch say_,
- The Publick Peace so near him lay,
- It took the Pleasure of his Crown away.
- It fill'd with Cares his Royal Breast;
- Often he has those Cares Prophetickly exprest,
- That when he should the Reins let go,
- Heaven would some Token of its Anger show,
- To let the thankless Nation see
- How they despis'd their own Felicity. 80
- This robb'd the Hero of his Rest,
- Disturb'd the Calm of his serener Breast.
-
- When to the Queen the Scepter he resign'd,
- With a resolv'd and steady Mind,
- Tho' he rejoic'd to lay the Trifle down,
- He pity'd Her to whom he left the Crown:
- Foreseeing long and vig'rous Wars,
- Foreseeing endless, private, Party Jarrs,
- Would always interrupt Her Rest,
- And fill with Anxious Cares Her Royal Breast. 90
- For Storms of Court Ambition rage as high
- Almost as Tempests in the Sky.
-
- Could I my hasty Doom retrieve,
- And once more in the Land of Poets live,
- I'd now the Men of Flags and Fortune greet,
- And write an Elegy upon the Fleet.
- First, those that on the Shore were idly found,
- _Whom other Fate protects_, while better Men were drown'd,
- They may thank God for being Knaves on Shore,
- But sure the Q---- will never trust them more. 100
-
- They who rid out the Storm, and liv'd,
- But saw not whence it was deriv'd,
- Sensless of Danger, or the mighty Hand,
- That could to cease, as well as blow, command,
- Let such unthinking Creatures have a Care,
- For some worse End prepare.
- Let them look out for some such Day,
- When what the Sea would not, _the Gallows may_.
-
- Those that in former Dangers shunn'd the Fight,
- But met their Ends in this Disast'rous Night, 110
- Have left this Caution, tho' too late,
- That all Events are known to Fate.
- Cowards avoid no Danger when they run,
- And Courage scapes the Death it would not shun;
- 'Tis Nonsence from our Fate to fly,
- All Men must once have Heart enough to die.
-
- Those Sons of Plunder are below my Pen,
- Because they are below the Names of Men;
- Who from the Shores presenting to their Eyes
- The Fatal _Goodwin_, where the Wreck of _Navies_ Lyes, 120
- A thousand dying Saylors talking to the Skies.
- From the sad Shores they saw the Wretches walk,
- By Signals of Distress they talk;
- There with one Tide of Life they're vext,
- For all were sure to die the next.
- The Barbarous Shores with Men and Boats abound,
- The Men more Barbarous than the Shores are found;
- Off to the shatter'd Ships they go,
- And for the Floating Purchase Row.
- They spare no Hazard, or no Pain, 130
- But 'tis to save the Goods, and not the Men.
- Within the sinking Supplaints Reach appear,
- As if they'd mock their dying Fear.
- Then for some Trifle all their Hopes supplant,
- With Cruelty would make a _Turk_ relent.
-
- If I had any _Satyr_ left to write,
- Cou'd I with suited Spleen Indite,
- My Verse should blast that Fatal Town,
- And Drowned Saylors Widows pull it down;
- No Footsteps of it should appear, 140
- And Ships no more Cast Anchor there.
- The Barbarous Hated Name of _Deal_ shou'd die,
- Or be a Term of Infamy;
- And till that's done, the Town will stand
- A just Reproach to all the Land.
-
- The Ships come next to be my Theme,
- The Men's the Loss, I'm not concern'd for them;
- For had they perish'd e'er they went,
- Where to no Purpose they were sent,
- The Ships might ha' been built again, 150
- And we had sav'd the Money and the Men.
- There the Mighty Wrecks appear,
- _Hic Jacent_, Useless Things of War.
- Graves of Men, and Tools of State,
- There you lye too soon, there you lye too late.
- But O ye Mighty Ships of War!
- What in Winter did you there?
- Wild _November_ should our Ships restore
- To _Chatham_, _Portsmouth_, and the _Nore_,
- So it was always heretofore, 160
- For Heaven it self is not unkind,
- If Winter Storms he'll sometimes send,
- Since 'tis suppos'd the Men of War
- Are all laid up, and left secure.
-
- Nor did our Navy feell alone,
- The dreadful Desolation;
- It shook the _Walls of Flesh_ as well as Stone,
- And ruffl'd all the Nation.
- The Universal Fright
- Made Guilty _H----_ expect his Fatal Night; 170
- His harden'd Soul began to doubt,
- And Storms grew high within, as they grew high without.
-
- Flaming Meteors fill'd the Air,
- But _Asgil_ miss'd his _Fiery Chariot_ there;
- Recall'd his black blaspheming Breath,
- And trembling paid his Homage unto Death.
-
- _Terror appear'd in every Face_,
- Even _Vile Blackbourn_ felt some shocks of Grace;
- Began to feel the Hated Truth appear,
- Began to fear, 180
- After _he had Burlesqu'd a God_ so long,
- He should at last be in the wrong.
- Some Power he plainly saw,
- (And seeing, felt a strange unusual Awe;)
- Some secret Hand he plainly found,
- Was bringing some strange thing to pass,
- And he that neither God nor Devil own'd,
- Must needs be at a loss to guess.
- Fain he would not ha' guest the worst,
- But Guilt will always be with Terror Curst. 190
-
- Hell shook, for Devils Dread Almighty Power,
- At every Shock they fear'd the Fatal Hour,
- The Adamantine Pillars mov'd,
- And Satan's _Pandemonium_ trembl'd too;
- The tottering _Seraphs_ wildly rov'd,
- Doubtful what the Almighty meant to do;
- For in the darkest of the black Abode,
- _There's not a Devil but believes a God_.
- Old _Lucifer_ has sometimes try'd
- _To have himself be Deify'd_; 200
- But Devils nor Men the Being of God deny'd,
- Till Men of late found out New Ways to sin,
- And turn'd the Devil out to let the Atheist in.
- But when the mighty Element began,
- And Storms the weighty Truth explain,
- Almighty Power upon the Whirlwind Rode,
- And every Blast proclaim'd aloud
- _There is, there is, there is_, a God.
-
- Plague, Famine, Pestilence, and War,
- Are in their Causes seen, 210
- The true Originals appear
- Before the Effects begin:
- But Storms and Tempests are above our Rules,
- Here our Philosophers are Fools.
- The _Stagyrite_ himself could never show,
- From whence, nor how they blow.
- Tis all Sublime, 'tis all a Mystery,
- They see no Manner how, nor Reason why;
- _All Sovereign Being_ is the amazing Theme,
- 'Tis all resolv'd to Power Supreme; 220
- From this First Cause our Tempest came,
- And let the Atheists spight of Sense Blaspheme,
- They can no room for Banter find,
- Till they produce another Father for the Wind.
-
- _Satyr_, thy Sense of Sovereign Being Declare,
- He made the Mighty Prince o'th' Air,
- And Devils recognize him by their Fear.
-
- Ancient as Time, and Elder than the Light,
- Ere the First Day, or Antecedent Night,
- Ere Matter into settl'd Form became, 230
- And long before Existence had a Name;
- Before th' Expance of indigested Space,
- While the vast _No-where_ fill'd the Room of Place.
- Liv'd _the First Cause_ The First Great _Where_ and _Why_,
- Existing _to and from_ Eternity,
- Of His Great Self, and _of Necessity_.
- _This I call God_, that One great Word of Fear,
- At whose great sound,
- When from his Mighty Breath 'tis eccho'd round,
- Nature pays Homage with a trembling bow, 240
- And Conscious Men would faintly disallow;
-
- The Secret Trepidation racks the Soul,
- And while he says, no God, replies, thou Fool.
- _But call it what we will_,
- _First Being it had_, does Space and Substance fill.
- Eternal Self-existing Power enjoy'd,
- And whatsoe'er is so, _That same is God_.
-
- If then it should fall out, as who can tell,
- But that there is a Heaven and Hell,
- Mankind had best consider well for fear 250
- 'T should be too late when their Mistakes appear;
- Such may in vain Reform,
- Unless they do't before another Storm.
-
- They tell us _Scotland_ scap'd the Blast;
- No Nation else have been without a Taste:
- All _Europe_ sure have felt the Mighty Shock,
- 'T has been a Universal Stroke.
- But Heaven has other Ways to plague the _Scots_,
- As Poverty and Plots.
- Her Majesty Confirms it, what She said, 260
- I plainly heard it, tho' I'm dead.
-
- The dangerous Sound has rais'd me from my Sleep,
- I can no longer Silence keep,
- Here _Satyr_'s thy Deliverance,
- A Plot in _Scotland_, Hatch'd in _France_,
- And Liberty the Old Pretence.
- Prelatick Power with Popish join,
- The Queens Just Government to undermine;
- This is enough to wake the Dead,
- The Call's too loud, it never shall be said 270
- The lazy _Satyr_ slept too long,
- When all the Nations Danger Claim'd his Song.
-
- Rise _Satyr_ from thy sleep of legal Death,
- And reassume Satyrick Breath;
- What tho' to Seven Years sleep thou art confin'd,
- Thou well may'st wake with such a Wind.
- Such Blasts as these can seldom blow,
- But they're both form'd above and heard below.
- Then wake and warn us now the Storms are past,
- Lest Heaven return with a severer Blast. 280
- Wake and inform Mankind
- Of Storms that still remain behind.
-
- If from this Grave thou lift thy Head,
- They'll surely mind one risen from the Dead.
- Tho' _Moses_ and the Prophets can't prevail,
- A Speaking _Satyr_ cannot fail.
- Tell 'em while secret Discontents appear,
- There'll ne'er be _Peace and Union_ here.
- They that for Trifles so contend, 290
- Have something farther in their End;
- But let those hasty People know,
- The Storms above reprove the Storms below,
- And 'tis too often known,
- The Storms below do Storms above Forerun;
-
- They say this was a High-Church Storm,
- Sent out the Nation to Reform;
- But th' Emblem left the Moral in the Lurch,
- For't blew the Steeple down upon the Church.
- From whence we now inform the People,
- The danger of the Church is from the Steeple. 300
- And we've had many a bitter stroke,
- From Pinacle and Weather-Cock;
- From whence the Learned do relate,
- That to secure the Church and State,
- The Time will come when all the Town
- To save the Church, will pull the Steeple down.
-
- Two Tempests are blown over, now prepare
- For Storms of Treason and Intestine War.
- The High-Church Fury to the North extends,
- In haste to ruin all their Friends. 310
- Occasional Conforming led the Way,
- And now Occasional Rebellion comes in Play,
- To let the Wond'ring Nation know,
- That High-Church Honesty's an Empty Show,
- A Phantasm of Delusive Air,
- That as Occasion serves can disappear,
- And Loyalty's a sensless Phrase,
- An Empty Nothing which our interest sways,
- And as that suffers this decays.
-
- Who dare the Dangerous Secret tell, 320
- _That Church-men can Rebel_.
- Faction we thought was by the Whigs Engross'd,
- And _Forty One_ was banter'd till the Jest was lost.
- _Bothwel_ and _Pentland-Hills_ were fam'd,
- And _Gilly Cranky_ hardly nam'd.
- If Living Poets Dare not speak,
- _We that are Dead_ must Silence break;
- And boldly let them know the Time's at Hand.
- When Ecclesiastick Tempests shake the Land.
- Prelatick Treason from the Crown divides, 330
- And now Rebellion changes sides.
- Their Volumes with their Loyalty may swell,
- But in their Turns too they Rebel;
- Can Plot, Contrive, Assassinate,
- And spight of Passive Laws disturb the State.
- Let fair Pretences fill the Mouths of Men,
- No fair Pretence shall blind my Pen;
- They that _in such a Reign as this_ Rebel
- Must needs be in Confederacy with Hell.
- Oppressions, Tyranny and Pride,
- May give some Reason to Divide; 340
- But where the Laws with open Justice Rule,
- He that Rebels _Must be both Knave and Fool_.
- May Heaven the growing Mischief soon prevent,
- And Traytors meet Reward in Punishment.

-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
-including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
-because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
-people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need, are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.

-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
-SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
-particular state visit http://pglaf.org
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
-To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate

-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
-works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
-concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
-with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
-Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
-
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
-unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
-keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
-
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
-
- http://www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
