80
On a Duble Marraige
Sir Seldom-Sober, and his eldest Son;Came to Sir. Idle-Spend thrifts dwelling place
After the Cerremonies all were done,
Young Sober ask't to see his Daughter Grace.
Is that your errand Sir (quoth Spendthrift) here
She hath not been with me I know not when,
Nor yet with us quoth Sober for I swear,
I've seen her not this twenty years and ten;
Pardon me then quoth Spendthrif, you must tary
For Cosen Jermans are forbid to Marry.
