Th'Estates demurr'd a while, at last they chose
A Fig, which with perpetual Flagrance grows
In Ramah's Vale, and fair as Sharon's Rose.
Thither an Apricock is Envoy sent,
To bear the Tidings from the Parliament;
The Apricock obeys the high Command,
And takes his Journey to a foreign Land:
There he arriv'd, and did the Fig approach,
And thus harrangu'd him on his grassie Couch.
A Fig, which with perpetual Flagrance grows
In Ramah's Vale, and fair as Sharon's Rose.

And takes his Journey to a foreign Land:

And thus harrangu'd him on his grassie Couch.
