Satire 20.

[I must distill my witts best quintessence]

I must distill my witts best quintessence,
To Carractrise the wisdome of wise Prudence,
Hir worthy actes are of such noble fame,
As I'le haue Hall to Cronicle the same.
You long to heare hir deedes? I knowe you doe:
Will you be silent then? well then goe toe.
Shee 'fore hir Father, Mother, folkes and all,
Settes vp hir legg ath'mantle-tree ith'wall,
Quoth shee now Father I'le doe wonders great,
The old folkes hearing that (with feare) gann sweat,
Shee seeing that, shee bidds them nothing doubt.
For I (quoth shee) will onely pufft this fire out.
And therewithall shee lett forth such a ---
That halfe the spacious world (for feare) gan start
Oh heres a Girle to liue ith'Common-weale,
Who cann defend it with hir very taile.
