Of the Sacrifice of Lent.

Epi. 163.

A country-parrish (Westward-ho) call'd Lent,
By chance was set on fire, and burnd amayne;
One askd the name thereof, as by he went;
T'was told him Lent: who streight replide againe,
Fridaies and Saturdaies (that make vs wither)
Pray'ye put in too, and burne them altogether.
