Epig. 3. To Tatam.

Tatam makes Verses of all sorts, and sizes,
And Playes, and Songs, and Ballads he comprizes:
In keene Iambicks a Lymphatick Lyrick
He is, and playes, and sings, sweeter then Derick,
For which, amongst the Broakers and Broom-criers,
Amongst the Watermen, 'mongst Dolts, and Diers,

143

Hee's cri'd up for a Bards and he is one,
For he writes Welsh, or in some stranger tone.

Bardus, Prince of Wales, an excellent Poet, of whom Poets are called Bards.
