Epig. XVIII. In Lidiam.

Lidia though village bred and meanly borne,
Yet made my Ladies Chamber-maide doth scorne
Al but the Court, your Citie Sea-cole aire
Is foggie grosle, and spoile, her cheese greene faire,
She sayes that London dames are dull not wittie,
Nor fancies she the fashions of th Cittie:
Therefore all Citie sutors woe in vaine,
The learned Courtier hardly may obtaine
Faire Lidias loue, but wherefore? I can tell her,
She loues his Lordships yeoman of the celler.
