Signieur Worde-monger, the Ape of Eloquence.

As on the way I Itenerated,
A Rurall person I Obuiated,
Interrogating times Transitation,
And of the passage Demonstration,


My apprehension did Ingenious scan,
That he was meerely a Simplitian:
So when I saw he was Extrauagant,
Vnto the obscure vulgar Consonant:
I bad him vanish most Promiscuously,
And not Contaminate my company.
