An Epitaph on the Mayor, &c.

Vnder this Tomb-stone lies a thing,
Enemy both to Church and King.
No Protestant, and yet no Papist,
A Puritan, and yet an Atheist.
For Magistracy a grand stickler,
Yet a most zealous Conventickler:
One that for Christ would live and die,
(Yet kept no Christ-tide verily.)
One that the Prophets slew, and took
Th'Apostles badge from out the Booke.
One that the Rubrick took away,
And gave th'Apprentices Tuesday.
One that did every thing amisse,
Then riddle me, riddle me, who was this?
