An EPITAPH.
Upon Oliver O dead drunk.
Here lyes a Lyon, and a Lamb,Sweet, and savage, wilde and tame:
Courteous, carelesse, Poore, and proud,
Man, and no man: Litle, and lowd:
Childrens May game; fine, forlorne,
Courtiers consort: Commons scorne:
Kind, and currish, would ye know
Who I mean? tis Oliver O,
That companion base and boon,
Sets and Rises with the Sun:
Thus in brief his exercise
He pipes, dances, and he dyes,
And when passing we can tell;
For he rings out his own knell.
