[What's the World's Progress? what our Gifts, heer living?]
What's the World's Progress? what our Gifts, heer living?But a foul way, all full of Baulks and Sloughs:
(A foolish Coach-man, false and dangerous,
Through thick and thin our old weak Chariot driving)
A smoaky Lodging, stinking, nastie-most:
A greedy, needy, churlish, filthy Hoste:
A stony Bed, a strange vnquiet Slumber:
Awaakt with Lies, Pride, Perill, and Incumber.
