[I doe agree with sister and brother]

I doe agree with sister and brother,
But I loue neither father nor mother,
If she imbrace me, she makes me die,
If he doe but touch me I cracke and crie,
And surely it is a preatie thing,

To see how he makes me fart and fling:
Maruell you sirs, who I should bee,
On sunday before noone you may me see.

Salt, receiueth forme by fire, the substance of it is water: and yet fire or water will destroy it.
