A Postscript.
Be pleas'd to know, that, though our Author gives,In these four Canto's, fretting Corosives,
He taketh no contentment in your smart;
But, studies to perform that Leaches part,
Who, rather, seekes his patients life to save,
Then, how to flatter him into his grave.
If you (with patience) let this Plaister lie,
The next that he intendeth to apply,
Shall be a Balsome, which will cure and ease;
And (if you be not verie hard to please)
Give proofe (what ever, knaves and fooles pretend)
Why, ev'ry honest man, should be his friend.
