6. Epigr.
[A Serjeant sitting at the Compter-gate]
A Serjeant sitting at the Compter-gate,Fell fast asleep, which made another strait
Grow something witty, and to break a jeast,
This fellow, sayes he, sure hath none to arrest;
And, in meer spightfulness, this envious Elf
(The Serjeant) is Arresting of himself.
