Vpon Captaine Catch.

Heer vnder, Captain Catch is layd,
Who six times chang'd from side to side;
Of neither side (it seem'd) afraid:
He wore a white Scarfe when he dyde:
Yet som suspect (and so do I)
For his inconstance showen before,
That to the Black-band he did fly:
But now he can reuolt no more.
