99. To the right worshipfull Nicholas Ducke, Esquire, one
of the Benchers of Lincolnes Inne, and Recorder of the City of Exeter, my Cousin German.
Although those Creatures, called by your name.
For their delight in dirt, deserue much blame;
And though that some of your profession,
Are glad when they haue got possession.
Of the foule end, or will dirt a cleere case:
You in your Circuittread a cleaner pase.
I know it, you abhorre those sordid things,
And where 'twas foule before, you cleere the springs:
For which, wise honest men you high esteemes,
May your yong Duckling paddle in like streames.
