VVhen as a Book doth from the Press come New,
All Buy or Borrow it, that Book to View,
Not out of Love of Learning, or of Wit,
But to find Fault, that they may Censure it:

(Though few there are but do in something err)
Yet Malice with her Rankled Spleen and Spight,

Then on their Bodies they their Witches set.
