INSTRUCTIONS, SUPPOSED TO BE WRITTEN IN PARIS, FOR THE MOB IN ENGLAND.

Of Liberty, Reform, and Rights I sing, Freedom I mean, without or Church or King; Freedom to seize and keep whate'er I can, And boldly claim my right — The Rights of Man Such is the blessed liberty in vogue, The envied liberty to be a rogue; The right to pay no taxes, tithes, or dues; The liberty to do whate'er I chuse; The right to take by violence and strife My neighbour's goods, and, if I please, his life; The liberty to raise a mob or riot, For spoil and plunder ne'er were got by quiet; The right to level and reform the great; The liberty to overturn the state; The right to break through all the nation's laws, And boldly dare to take rebellion's cause: Let all be equal, every man my brother; Why one have property, and not another? Why suffer titles to give awe and fear? There shall not long remain one British peer; Nor shall the criminal appalled stand Before the mighty judges of the land; Nor judge, nor jury shall there longer be, Nor any jail, but every pris'ner free; All law abolish'd, and with sword in hand We'll seize the property of all the land. Then hail to Liberty, Reform, and Riot! Adieu Contentment, Safety, Peace, and Quiet!
