Note generali

A ballad in the form of a mock litany stairizing the army and Parliament.

The principal author of Mercurius melancholicus (1647-1649) was John Hackluyt; but rival periodicals with the same name sporadically appeared, one by John Crouch, another by Martin Parker and John Taylor. The anti-Presbyterian tone of this ballad denies Hackluyt's authorsip but is quite suitable to the verse of Crouch, Parker, or Taylor.

Place of publication from Wing.

Reproduction of original in Thomason Collection, British Library.
