Epig. XIII. In Hillum.
Moor fields no more, shal now be Moor fields cal'd,Hillus wel read before the same were wal'd;
Seeing the plough goe there did call to mind
A certaine prophesie, which he did find
In Merlin, which he said, then came to passe,
Belieue it you that like it, this, it was:
When one whole yeare a Holiday shall last,
Moore fields shall ploughed be the ditch new cast,
If this be true and as all men doe talke,
Their's on a holy-day scarce roome to walke,
Or if Hill ly'de; yet since the sence is true,
London may well giue Holliday his due.
