"The Whigs' Lamentation for the Death of their dear Brother Colledge, the Protestant Joiner:"
Brave Colledge is hanged, the chief of our hopes, For pulling down bishops, and making new popes. Our dear brother Property calls on the ground, In Poland, King Antony ne'er will be crowned; For now they're resolved that harts shall be trump, And the 'prentices swear they will burn the old rump. — — — — — — — Our case to the corrector-men we must refer, To Shadwell and Settle, to Curtis and Carr; To know who succeeds our late captain the joiner, He must be some artist, some carver, or coiner.
