Reply to a Dilatorie Answere, sent by Sir Gedeon, &c. to the Author.
Your Sub-Receiver shew'd mee, you were sorie,You could not so dispatch mee as you would;
And tolde mee on, with stambring Tongue, a Storie,
Scarse vnder-stood, when it was ten tymes tolde.
This difference I put betwixt you two,
Hee's short in Words, and you in Deedes are slow.
