POSTSCRIPT.

Pray, Agnes, did you never know one Ralph Heaten,
Who cudgell'd with your brother Will and who beat'un?
As sure as a gun he's in Ilchester pris'n,
And for robbing his Master of what wasn't his'n!
To prevent all mistakes, or inquisitive fuss,
When you mean for to write, you'll direct to me thus:
Mistress Margery Cockney, it's at Number hait,
In Milsom-Street, near to the Hoctogen Gate;
A maid of all work to Sir Toby Beefsuet,
The house goes up steps, and is kept by Ann Blewit.
