LXII.

Through Temple-Bar passing to Chancery Lane,
(VVhere Clients with Bills and with Answers are slain)
VVe found the Old Pope grown decrepid and stale;
VVas now pleas'd to sell Darby and Nottingham-Ale.
VVe both laught at the Label affixt to the Sign,
And suppos'd that their Ale was such stuff as their Wine.
