For Gems and Gold; Crown only wanted there.
When, rising strait, perform'd most humble Bow,
The King saluted her with pleasant Brow.
Whilst Blush adorn'd her cheek: Madam (did say)
I hope you'l pardon all, that boistrous way
Which brought you here; tho Rude, uncivil Action,
The end's gentle, kind; shall speak large satisfaction.
