Epig. 27. To the Parliament of England .

You are the Braine, the Liver and the Heart,
Wee are the Hands
Of this great Body, and the Vitall part,
The Feet whereon it stands,
The Bones, and Bulke, which must the Burthen beare,
Therefore without offence
With you wee (sure) may claime an equall share,
'Specially in the Common sence.
