 | The Scourge of Folly |  |
Epig. 282. Againe.
Herford thou bred'st me, as doth well appeareBy this my Iibing ouer-gamesome vaine:
For, thou bearst at thy brest (as Children deere)
Such iocond Iæcks as mock thee for thy paine:
But if thy liquor make thy Bratts so mad,
Withhold thy Dugg, and so they wilbe sadd.
