Riddle me this.
An Embleame including the Authors name.

Of weale, of woe: this if you right explaine,
the first, though worst, includes the Authors name.
which two beat paths leade to a distinct state
Of weale, of woe: this if you right explaine,
the first, though worst, includes the Authors name.
Or thus
A Brea, a Banke, a Border, or a Shore,Smiles on his name that brought these Satires ore.
His Crest
His Crest a Cuckolds Crosse: his Motto, HeereI giue a Badge which Citizens doe weare.
Blow my Plump-fac't Poulterer of Saffron Hill.
